Jesus H Christ
So I've been avoiding Pinkerton deluxe for the reason that (in my head) Pinkerton is, well, Pinkerton, and should not be tampered with.

sleepy.
I've not blogged for a while, it feels like the right thing to do.
I've just finished my seventh consecutive shift at work, and my god am I ready for a lie in tomorrow morning.
I feel I should mention, for whomever cares, that I work in a pharmacy. We are indeed all on drugs.
A short one I guess. I'm tired. :(

Opening the show tonight is The Knux.
