Boredom reigns

Today ended up being one of those totally pointless days where nothing particularly exciting happens and nothing is really achieved. The highlight of the day was watching Speed Racer on a TV that somehow "upscales" any source to 3D. It was awesome and I was paid for the privilege, so can't complain about that. Nothing bad happened either today, the day just seemed to float along with no consequence. The boredom continued with a poor episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer before I made some dinner. Lastly I watched Sherlock Holmes with the family; the Guy Ritchie one. I enjoyed it again, repeating my previous cinema experience of screaming at the brief scene featuring my actor cousin. It's a good film on repeat viewing, just I discovered that I remembered the second half too well. So there's a boring day summed up in a rather boring blog. Apologies, must try harder in future. Don't of the day reflects me getting back into Oingo Boingo. It is a song called Pedestrian Wolves, and its from their last album, an album which divides their fans with le on the side of loving it. This song shows such a variety of influences all mashed up into something that sounds unique; a general punk tone with complete polar opposites in funk sounds and almost barbershop style vocal harmonies at times. A really wierd song, definitely not to everyone's taste but I like it.
