a Perfect Circle - Passive

Dead as dead can be
The doctor tells me
But I just can't believe him
Ever the optimistic one
I'm sure of your ability
To become my perfect enemy

Wake up and face me
Don't play dead 'cause maybe
Someday I will walk away and say
You disappoint me
Maybe you're better off this way

Leaning over you here
Cold and catatonic
I catch a brief reflection
Of what you could and might have been
It's your right and your ability
To become my perfect enemy

Wake up
(Why can’t you?)
And face me
(Come on now)
Don't play dead
(Don’t play dead)
'Cause maybe
(Because maybe)
Someday
(Someday)
I’ll walk away and say
You disappoint me
Maybe you're better off this way

Maybe you're better off this way (×3)
You're better off this (×2)
Maybe you're better off...

Wake up
(Why can't you?)
And face me
(Come on now)
Don't play dead
(Don’t play dead)
'Cause maybe
(Because maybe)
Someday
(Someday)
I’ll walk away and say
You fucking disappoint me
Maybe your better off this way!

Go ahead and play dead
(GO!)
I know that you can hear this
(GO!)
Go ahead and play dead
(GO!)

Why can't you turn and face me?
(WAKE UP!)
Why can't you turn and face me?
(WAKE UP!)
Why can't you turn and face me?
(WAKE UP!)
Why can't you turn and face me?
(GO!)
You fucking disappoint me

Passive-aggressive bullshit...

Yes! i got an Orkut account.

Yay, i finally scored an Orkut invite. It took a while but i got one. Now i've gotta see what the hell it can do. Being invite only there is not yet alot of info on it. Just that it's google's own social networking site.
So hopefully it well help me meet some friends and make new contacts.
Christ i gotta stop sitting up late on the computer playing with all of the web app's i use and watching anime (currently Ranma 1/2 series 2).
If you'd like an invite to orkut let me know and i might be nice enough to hook you up.

Just a quick update.

I've just finished, creating a logo for the site.
I was having trouble picking a good picture to use for my logo, but today one of the guys at work gave me an excellent suggestion, something globally known and fits with the name, 'Barrel of Monkeys'. So i tracked down a pic of one of the monkey's and managed to find a good one (i would've taken it myself but i lost my monkeys years ago). I photoshopped it a bit and well there you have it. Make sure you tell me if it's shit and i'll see what else i can knock together.
Oh yeah i got some decent news tonight (for a change), it appears i can finally move on the 22nd. Yes i don't have to spend christmas in my trash heap of an apartment, i can have my house set up and ready (enough to live in anyway).
Now i just gotta figure out what i'm going to do for christmas and my 10 day break, i was thinking of sleeping for 10 days but i should probably do something with the time. What the hell am i going to do???

What i've been doing this past week

Do you have any idea how hard it is to photograph a dog who just want's to play with you. I chased Emma for 10 mins and this was the best picture i managed to capture. But i like it cause it has missy in the background too. Now i haven't posted for the last week or so because i've been busy, i've been trying to get my life at least partly organized. So i have been spending the time using some of these new web based apps to make the internet more useful.
A good place to start is with Netvibes which is a personal start page. You link it up your rss feeds, your flickr photo set, your Gmail account, and even your Writely documents can be watched from netvibes. It gives you websearch courtesy of Google, Yahoo, IceRocket & wikipedia as well as local weather, general note space, price watcher, oh yeah and can't forget a bookmarking service. Web 2.0 at it's best.
I've also managed to find a Calender service which allows you to make calendars online and either share them or keep them private. It's called CalendarHub and is worth a look. There is also Voo2do which is an online to-do list organizer that is very well set up and easy to use.
As well as those i've also managed to find an awesome site that could possibly be a contender to flickr's photo sharing reign. Boltfolio is not just for photo sharing though, it also lets you upload, tag and share all of your personal audio and video files (100Mb limit per month/unlimited storage space).
Now as well as all of those, i've been spending a hell of alot of time at Pandora which is essentially a music refferal system, you just type in the name of a song or band that you like then it will find and play similar music for you. i had managed to fall right off the music charts and had no idea what was available, with the help of Pandora i've managed to find A few new albums i'd like to purchase.
Of course i have to do all of this in my own time after work as they've blocked most of my favourite sites on the work servers.
Ok i've just realised how tired i am and that it's 12:30 so i'm signing out.

Aeon Flux is the shit

Now how cool is Aeon Flux. A mad chick who can destroy an army in a matter of minutes, i wouldn't mind a piece of that (except she'd more than likely snap your neck if you tried to touch her). But then at the moment i would go for almost anything.
But yeah, i got started thinking about AF when i hear they were making a live action movie, but i'm dissapointed as they said it won't be as extreme as the cartoon (well honestly i doubt they could find a living woman with a body like Aeon), but i read something bout a game which should be awesome. I came across an article called History of Aeon Flux on Culture Pulp (Original Source boston.com) which was a cartoon showing an interview with Aeon it's a good laugh if you were a fan of the cartoons. Speaking of the cartoons they've just released the Aeon Flux Collection on a 3disc set, i want it sooo badly.
