misses sis’s b-day [20 april 2002]
being busy at work & preparing for the yearshightide (burning cds like a mo-fo), siggimus misses sis’ b-day & has to endure tales of several cake monsters devouring all the good stuff
puh
anna karenina [19 april 2002]
hmm *frown*
not quite engrossing enough, eh?
some excellent ideas on how to port long passages of book to a short scene on stage, but in the end, siggimus wasn’t all that impressed
fun day at work!! [19 april 2002]
hah!!
siggimus has funnest day ever at work strutting around with his complimentary yearshightide inflatable beach ball
having come across siggimus in 5 different locations all over the building during her newcomer tour, there is now a brand new chick at work who probably thinks siggimus’ soul purpose is to take care of the company’s inflatable beach ball
flogging [18 april 2002]
siggimus & team get a royal flogging at football, in a match that brings new meaning to the word ‘losing’
preparations & reading group [17 april 2002]
after 8 busy hours of work, siggimus has to stay behind to start all-important preparations for the yearshightide at work; a party to end all parties
printing out little books, sticking stickers on little packages, selecting perky music
den shows up for first meeting in small reading group almost an hour late
b & krumma fairly pissed, but forgive siggimus eventually
fuck!! [14 april 2002]
man! siggimus has what is probably his worst bus-related incident ever
waiting for washing machine to finish, siggimus manages to just miss the bus
sits, waits for ca. 20 mins for the next one. di dey da dum
still reasonably calm
*bounce, bounce, bounce*
*tap, tap tap*
driving into the bus stop where he changes buses some 30 mins later, siggimus sees #12 driving away, thinking, well, siggimus’ll just catch some other one. still no foaming at the mouth
30 mins later, as #12 is about to leave again, a fairly furious siggimus figures he musta misunderstood something or other a little bit
result:
it took siggimus 1,5 hours to travel these 5-6 km
siggimus woulda gotten there faster walking!
siggimus woulda saved pots of money (& several tons of aggravation) taking a taxi!
a cow woulda gotten there faster walking!!
elin [13 april 2002]
being in town, elin finds the time to drop in on siggimus a bit, checking out his place & delivering his order of 12yo the macallan
*sluuuu-urp!*
for a final touch before she leaves, elin makes use of the restroom facilities
siggimus is practically brought to tears when he notices that she has left the seat up & the light on
mmmm, just like old haremy times…
booooooooooooogie! [12 april 2002]
starting out with a bit of force-fed beer, the compass is then pointed in general direction of snorri’s place for a wee bit of work-related boogie
upon the discovery that snorri has no keys to the premises, he expertly slithers through the kitchen window like a snake, & boogie is begun
soon a guitar is dug out & snorri & bjössi greifi & óli take turns plucking at that thing with the rest of the gang singing at the top of their lungs, quite a few going hoarse along the way
concert [10 april 2002]
siggimus generously invites b & elin to concert with his ‘vip+2’ pass
great to see elin again! she’s designing some sort of cultural mall on arnarhóll
…or maybe not?
anyhoo, dikta, lúna & bris try & entertain the lot & do a fair job of it
mayonesa [9 april 2002]
mayonesa que yo bato como simple mayonesa no se ni como me llamo ni donde vivo…nime interesa
*wiggle wiggle*
mayonesa mayonesa!
torture never stops! [8 april 2002]
velkomin í myndatöku — til að byrja — notið rétta mynt
& then on bus siggimus is hit by toni effing braxton’s unbreak my heart
what has siggimus done to deserve this?!?
& björk, of course… [7 april 2002]
siggimus mingles with the jet set, going to a world premiere of that thing
gots to say it was not what he had hoped for
a bit confusing…
aimless?
young [7 april 2002]
one night, gordon offered to cook chicken stew for young on his tour bus, named after his song ‘pocahontas’. as she cooked, young sat adjusting a toy train set, another of his long-term obsessions. he has 750ft of track laid out at broken arrow and in 1995 he bought a toy company, lionel trains, to help him communicate his passion to his son, ben, who has cerebral palsy. young reconfigures the electronics to provide auditory and visual feedback: sound and movement that stimulates interaction with his son
‘part of the train set was a model cow that made moo-ing noises,’ laughed gordon. ‘and neil wasn’t happy with the cow sound. he didn’t think it was realistic enough. so he kept fiddling with the electronics. he’d then get the cow to moo, and he’d ask us what we thought. was it realistic enough? did it need some more work? what was wrong? he was at it for an hour or so. it was amazing how a toy cow could maintain his interest for so long’
hmm? siggimus doesn’t find it amazing at all…
sniff, sniff [4 april 2002]
