Thoughts of a Psych/Code Monkey/Guitarist

First up, I recently found out that my second-last blog entry 'Beans' did rather well in the contest it was written for, in fact coming in the top 10 ! So many thanks to Bodie for helping with the eloquence, and to all the folks running the NetBeans contest. This is only a short entry to let readers know that I've managed to get myself a job at a little-known website company who have an office in Sydney. Which means moving at the start of next year, and making the most of Adelaide until then (hopefully I'll be able to come back on some weekends too). Speaking of which, my band should soon have a name, and once a permanent drummer is found, the next step is finding gigs (probably some time after ski-trip in the mid-year break) so I'll keep you posted. Oooh, and the most recent TCO just finished, congrats to the winners and JD on his 4th place (competing in style wearing sunglasses). Until next time, adios!

I'm starting to really love the walk home at night - so peaceful, so scenic, I'd strongly recommend it, you're welcome to come along some time but the most creativity comes from doing it alone while tuning out the rest of the world. On the way home today, the result was this, influenced by My Chemical Romance's Black Parade : To those who stand alone tonight - beaten, broken, unseen by the eyes of others, with unheard voice projected from unappreciated lips; undervalued, overlooked yet still running the gauntlet - Know that we're standing here with you, beaten together, broken together, united by this humble existance. We'll carry on. In other news, due to 88Mb on the last day, plus new recordings , padster.gyronet.org managed to serve 1 Gb last month. As I write this, it is 3 hours into gyronet's March, and the old 'Final Goodbye' mp3 has had 39 hits already, and the new 'less ordinary' is on 17. Kinda makes me wish I could play full time on...
