I want everyone to go away & die. Or just the folks in charge of the trains.

Guys, I was at the station for an hour before my train actually left and it's 8.40 now and we're only just pulling into Ely. Know why this is? Because the train was already late getting to P and got further delayed AT P because another train broke and no-one thought to alter the train platform despite the fact that most of the London-bound services were also late & therefore not using THEIR platforms. QUICK SOMEONE STAB NATIONAL EXPRESS.

Despite my near-constant bitching, I don't actually dislike commuting. What I hate is that public transport is forever fucking me over. Goddamn this bullshit.

In other news, I have a team meeting this afternoon and as admin it's my job to take minutes. I hope this is the equivalent of taking lecture notes because that's how I'm going to go about it.

Last night I decided I'd try to catch up with NCIS and started watching the most recent Trent Kort episode again (side note: rawr; so glad he made a reappearance. Just give us some Fornell before the season bows out & I'll ask for no more) only to get to have to stop watching at the exact same place that I stopped last time.

And this is why I think these episodes are so long: because it always takes me so long to finish them.

On a similar note, have been using my commute to re-read some fics I bookmarked in delicious just before the Yuletide reveals, and have realised that they are shorter than I thought they were. My perception of these things is nigh ridiculous.

What the fuck are the actual lyrics to 'That's Not My Name'? Because I listen to that song 8-10 times a day (not many songs on my phone; lots of repeats in the rotate) & I still don't know half of what she's saying.

The Ting Tings are my guilty music pleasure.

They call me hell
They call me Stacey
They call me her
They call me Jane
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
They call me quiet
But I'm a riot
Mary, Jo, Lisa,
Always the same
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name


The rest of the lyrics are here and look correct, but the chorus lyrics are always wrong. :/ I don't know why. It annoys me that no one seems to know them!

I thought it might be quiet/riot but then I wasn't sure because both those words end in 't' not 'yehhhh'.

There's supposed to be an apostrophe up there but my phone is weird w/lj & won't let me see what I've typed so please excuse any errors!

They did a session on Janice Long's show a while ago and they sung an incredible acoustic arrangement of That's Not My Name - it made it really easy to figure out the actual lyrics! I wish I'd ripped that session from Listen Again because I'd sell my soul for an mp3 of that track D: D:

Surprise lyrics "oh THAT'S what she's saying" moment!

Train dramas sound awful. I suggest invention of teleporting device at once.
