Well The Queen and even Sharon Osbourne does it, so why not me?
And to be honest, I'm not sure if I can arsed to post again before New Year so I shall provide a summary of 2002.
Mainly to remind myself how this year went and what I achieved blah blah blah

2002 - Pretty normal.

That's 12 months of living summed up in a sentence - so I'll throw in some details and leave some out because I dont want to share all my experiences with everyone.

Played around 15 gigs (roughly one a month), spent a total of 7 weeks in the studio in blocks doing drums and percussion and mixing.
Worked for a bit - promoted twice, 2 different bosses.
Split with girlfriend of 3 years in May.
Felt miserable through June about it.
Slept with 8 girls since splitting with girlfriend
Switched from Marlboros to Bensons to Marlboro Lights.
Had countless meetings with A&R types, made me realise the cliche of them being phony, slimey insincere freeloaders is correct and they have no soul.
Had my 1st experience with cocaine and it didnt turn me into a raving criminal that raped, stole and murdered from people. Nor did it leave me with a crippling addiction.
Rediscovered my thirst for alcohol.
Shrugged off my miserable obsession with righting the wrongs in the world.
Stopped caring what strangers thought about me.

Met someone and decided to move in together after knowing each other for 3 weeks.
Realised life is a series of adventures and is there purely to be experienced on every level possible.
Realised how much the new Star Wars movies suck.
Bought an Xbox, sold my PS2, bought another PS2, bought a Gamecube and sold it within a month for £50.
Wrote 2 songs that made it to being played onstage.
Became friends with Mackie & the guys
Almost punched out the Starsailor singer but was prevented from doing so
Bought Graham Coxon a pint
Had Depeche Mode come to a rehearsal. Surreal but cool.
Realised how cool Ebay can be
Secured an agent in Los Angeles and became S.G.A certified

There's a bunch of other stuff but that'll do for now.
I'm off to make a cup of tea, visit some porno sites and smoke whilst I wait for sleep to claim me, my knees to stop aching and to turn off my digital 5.1 home-cinema surround sound Xmas pressie.

If I don't visit again before 2003, hope you had a good year and hope you stake your claim on 2003 before it gets away and another 12 months are wasted on the sidelines.
And in the words of the immortal Lawrence Tierney

Smoking is bad kids. Unless it's cigars, they look cool.

Soon you'll realise how mcuh the old Star Wars movies suck in comparison.


> > Realised how cool Ebay can be

I brought a Gucci baseball cat for $28. I won't wear it, I'll just turn it inside out and leave it on my cabinet so everyone can see the Gucci bit.


Your posts are fun.
No offence intended.

I haven't got a clue.

Phone Mystic Meg's Psychic Hotline and ask her if she knows.
