Sinister: after the gold rush

[Amy Jackson]

oh my goodness!

i love neil young!  and it's taken me since christmas to realise how much.  
sat in the 13th note last night avec fellow sinisterine dafyd, "after the 
gold rush" came on the jukebox and i was in love...that song is just so 
beautiful.  my dear lovely sweetheart ross put "like a hurricane" on his 
christmas tape for me and it has the most lovely lyric "you are like a 
hurricane/there's calm in your eyes"......

*sigh*

this weekend has been pretty cool.  showed daf the sights, and i went to the 
top of the tower at the lighthouse which was very scary because i'm scared 
of heights.  but i managed it none the less.  have been listening to mogwai 
a lot too, cos i saw stuart braithwaite do an acoustic set at sleazy's the 
other night....i could well get into my post rock.

i just realised i haven't seen the news for ages and ages.

in may LovelyRoss is visiting Gairloch with some of his friends.  I think 
I'll have to go home too.  To show him around and stuff.  Though that'll 
take all of two minutes since it's one road in, same road out. (and you 
think i'm joking.  i'm not.)  i can't wait.  i *really* want to go home and 
sit on the beach when it's windy, the sea goes all bottle green and the 
waves crash in over the rocks and white spray goes everywhere and it is 
great.  then i collect shells which is cool too, i take them home, wash them 
and lay them out on the front step.  that's one thing about gairloch that is 
better than glasgow, you can't go shell-collecting here.

i think KenRedBull worries too much about whether girls like him or not.  
though i can't really talk considering i constantly worry whether boys like 
me too.  i mean, the boys that i'm friends with like me as far as i know, 
but as for "potential boyfriends" i have no idea.  it's all just too 
confusing.

i agree with jenowl, ribena is the best drink in the world.  but have you 
tried vodka and ribena?  mmmmmm, now that is lovely.  what i miss the most 
is creamola foam though, does anyone else remember it?  it came in a wee 
tub, it was pink powder and you added two or three tablespoonfuls to a glass 
of water and it fizzed up and tasted lovely.

was talking about 80's tv the otherday.  does anyone else remember pugwall?  
teddy ruxpin?  fraggle rock?  round the twist? fingermouse?  you and me with 
cosmo and dibs?  charlie chalk?  they don't make them like that anymore.

right, i better go,
loadsa love,
amy xxxxx
