My friend John has been predicting for the last few years that today the world is going to end, due to some dream/vision he had where an angel appeared and warned him about it. What a big freak.

Well, not much seems to be going on so far. Of course, if you're some alien archaeologist reading this off a fossilised computer while investigating the ruins of an Earth that was destroyed by meteors at 5pm then I guess John had the last laugh. Maybe you could build him a statue out of alien bronze or something?

Today I found out the "definite job" my brother had on the cards for me at his place is now "definitely not happening". Thanks bro! So I guess it's back to the jobcentre website and hunting for officey stuff in the city. I'll fire off CVs to agencies as well, hopefully there's a decent amount of work going in a place as busy as Oxford.

In the meantime though I've been doing important stuff like making a youtube account and killing goblins in Oblivion. Oblivion the computer game, not Oblivion the Preston gay bar.

At some point this week I'm venturing back up north for Julie and Sian's birthday activities at the weekend. I'd thought I was back on the MEGABUS again but it looks like I might score a train trip instead. Knowing my luck we'll drive over some dude's body again.

In other news, it is still too fucking hot.

Today's mp3 is from the new Nouvelle Vague (nouvelle Nouvelle Vague?) album. Like their first one it's bossanovaey covers of vaguely inappropriate 80s hits being sung by foxy French ladies. Cashback.
