Getaway

Warmth rushed through to her busy fingertips as they pawed their way through the black shiny vinyl. Each glinting in the dim lamp light before falling victim to the next. Her chest rising and falling, keeping in time with her self synchronized rhythm. Gaining momentum due to her overflowing excitement and her craving desire to work her way through every record in the shop. Although it wasn’t a shop. Not to her.

It was a haven. An escape. A treasure trove obscured, tucked and hidden away in a forgotten backstreet of wintry London.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rugged up against the bitter winds blowing in from the north, she had forged her way through the sprinkling sleet, before noticing the soft glimmering glow of a fogged up window down a rubbish strewn alley. Like a beacon on a dark and lonely sea, it called to her. Slowly she had made her way around the corner, absentmindedly shaking away the shredded dregs of a newspaper that had blown against her leg. Kneeling upon a discarded dustbin lid, she had gently spun herself a peephole against the frosty glass, leaning in to gaze upon the secrets within.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As though in a dream, slowly she had made her way down the icy steps and without effort or instruction or second thoughts, her open hand leant against the heavy oak door.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lamps softly shimmered from the tops of winding towers of dusty books, eliciting a golden glow, bathing the room in dreamy comfort. A man of no more that thirty with a friendly smile and twinkling eyes read quietly in an armchair, tucked between open boxes of vinyl by the back wall. Quietly and unobtrusively his hand turned yet another page, as his feet softly tapped the floorboards. Although spoken words were absent, the air held no discomfort nor feelings of misplacement.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lyrics circled the room…

“Fly…high…….be my getaway……gotta get away”

Unaware of their surroundings, her hips swayed.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hours had quietly passed by.

Lost in melody and freedom, she twirled. Clutching discovered treasures to her chest, smiling, as she slowed to a stop, hair falling across her face, reawakening her.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Producing her purse she was met with a wave of his hand. Gratitude bursting through her smile.

“Can I come back tomorrow?” She asked softly, not wanting to disturb the gentle beauty of the atmosphere.

The man nodded his head, the corner’s of his soft lips rising ever so slightly as his eyes met hers in a smile of gratitude and joy, cementing friendship.

Feeling as light as a feather she twirled once more. Taking in every golden detail of her new found sanctuary. Gently she stepped over the threshold, nuzzling her face in amongst the folds of her scarf before stepping out into the night.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The door fell closed.

Hidden beyond the golden glows reaches, he had stood since she entered.

Like a dream she had swept his mind of all thought. Like a trance, love had shimmered around her.

In awe he had watched her. Her silhouette swaying to the softly swirling sounds. Her hips like a pendulum, hypnotising his mind.

In a world now seemingly surreal, he watched her go.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In a hazy daze he farewelled his firm friend, nestling his chin under the collar of his jacket before stepping out into the icy January winds.

Blistering gusts challenged him, threatening to seep through, desperate to strip him of warmth as he rounded the corner.

It passed him by. He was untouchable. Unreachable by the cold icy intentions of the circling winds.

Suspended in thoughts of her, he stopped and stared at the deep skies above.

Love bursting into life. Levitating though frozen in time, he smiled as he watched her twirl through the stars of his mind and into his heart.

P.S. voice is due to the fact that i'd only just woken up :P Like a friggin kid at xmas I wanted to try it out ^_^

Currently importing trax onto my ipod, sitting here waiting, freezing, bopping along to said tunes, starting to get a bit tedious so thought i'd do some random brain spillage-ing on good 'ol LJ!

So in about 40mins the clock will tick over to a new day... which brings official countdowns to...

Backstreet Boys = 3 Days
MCFLY = 4 DAYS

Jeezuz mother of cheese...
My brain serisouly statrs short circuiting if I think about it too much...
as you can see viz the appauling spelling...
Ahhhh man...
Right now I can only think of 2 other times where i've felt THIS excited..

Hanson gig 2005 when the lights went down for the boys to come on stage...that feeling was just out of this word
&
@ Angels and Airwaves gig when Tom started singing one of my top 3 songs of all time "I Miss You"... I swear that was the biggest rush of my life... to hear that song acoustically...Dear god...
Who the frig needs drugs when a man such as Tom Delonge exists..
Oh christ, Charlie just came on 'when the day turns into night'...
Man I miss Busted...

This bloody ipod can fit 25,000 songs... man i'm gonna score a place inthe guiness book of records for the flatest arse...
The scary thing is, i've uploaded 640 songs so far - baring in mind i'm only uploading absolute faves..
the scary thing is I know all the lyrics to these songs...
Half the time I can't remember my phone number..
Yet if u wanna know the words to some random hit from the 90's, im your woman...
The brain is a fascinating instrument eh?!

Oh boy, it's just gone midnight... 4 days till mcfly folks... Freaking heck...

You Belong in 1956

You're fun loving, romantic, and more than a little innocent. See you at the drive in!

- a lil innocent?!?

Your Scholastic Strength Is Deep Thinking

You aren't afraid to delve head first into a difficult subject, with mastery as your goal. You are talented at adapting, motivating others, managing resources, and analyzing risk. You should major in: Philosophy Music Theology Art History Foreign language

- holy crap, I was talking about the possibility of going back and studying Japanese part-time this year...

You Are a Glam Rocker!

You put the "show" in rock show with your larger than life self. No doubt, you are all about making good music... But what really gets you going is having an over the top show. Glitter, costumes, and wild hair are your thing - with some rock thrown in!

WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! BOUT FRIGGIN TIME I HEAR U CRY!

Man apologies for taking yonks on getting this up! It's taken me flippin ages to work my new editing software out and then the main program I was using turned out to be a demo version so it decided to pack it in after 5 days worth of use and then I lost a bunch of files thanks to all the storms floating about (I pulled the plug on the machine and forgot I had everything open UNSAVED)

However, all is good, cause....
HERE TIS!!!



Okay so as you can see from this - it isn't being hosted @ my website anymore...
I've decided to go with PodOmatic.com coz, basically, it's sooooooo much easier and less complicated to upload + there are some awesome features - aka if you have Itunes, there's a button to the right that subscribes you to my podcasts with just one click!
Cool eh?!
I thought so ^_^

I still plan to have my website up and running shortly, but in the meantime everything podcast related will be @ podomatic ^_^

Side note -- HAPPY NEW YEARS PEOPLE!!!!!!!!
MAY YOU ALL HAVE A GREAT '08!!!!!!!!
MAY MCFLY GET THEIR ARSES HERE SAFELY AND PUT ON A GIG THAT'LL TAKE US TO THE STARS!!!!!!!!!
XOXOXOXO

Currently uploading and sorting out RSS feeds (so u can subscribe to it via Itunes! Funky eh?!)

Shall let ya's know when it's up and running ^_-

[x-posted @ http://totallee.net]

28th December, 2007
EXCITING NEWS!!!! ARE YA READY?!?!?!?
Tomorrow is SATURDAY!
More importantly, tomorrow is the 29th!
EVEN more importantly, tomorrow I shall be cleaning the bottom of my shower which is resembling something that Don Burke (of Burke's Backyard fame) would award best moss and fungus award to...
but...
MOST Importantly....
TOTALLEE.net WILL BE BACK IN FULL SWING WITH A BRAND NEW DESIGN, A BRAND NEW PODCAST AND A BIT OF A TWIST-A-RAMA!!!
Whoop-di-spoodle eh!??!
Now I KNOW that there is @ least 1 absolute ANGEL who has been popping in, checking up on the site and unfortunately hasn't had much to look at over the last few weeks, but anywayz, i'll leave a comment thingy under this bunch of waffle for you to let me know who you are/are's (excellent grammer Miss Lee) and I shall dish out the virtual hugs and kisses appropriately!
So until we meet again in another 24 hours.....
HAVE FUN SUGAR PLUMS!
xox
--------------------

Side note-- the podcast... yeah.. it's the one...
"which one?!"
....
...
..
The MCFLY ONE!!!!!!!! OUUUUUUUUUUUUEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
Doesn't go for 2 hours...
HOWEVER!
I plan to make quite a few, because there's just too many songs/priceless random babbling/banter/and just McFly being McFly to dquiz into one spesh! Therefore, installment number one will be there for download on the site 2morrow! Hallelujah! Praise the Lord and pass the ketchup, etc...

Much love!
xox

I'm sat here, on a Sunday night, drinking stale-tasting coffee ...always remember to screw on air-tight lids properly people Otherwise your instant coffee will turn to sawdust within 24 hours..
Anywayz, i'm working away on the McFly Podcast/website design - STILL I KNOW!
- New years rezzi = learn to meet deadlines! Or 'set-more-realistic-deadlines-as-you-do-possess-the-knowledge-that-you-are-a-lazy-bugger-and-knew-full-well-you-wouldn't-meet-30th-November-Lee...

So yeah I'm working away and hit a wall as far as coding goes , so I went back through my archives of old blog entries in the hopes of finding said code and I stumble across an entry from 9th November 2006! Just over a year ago and the content...
Is my run-down of Motion in the Ocean....
and I gotta say, a year on, I feel exactly the same now as I did then (well, times the feelings by 10, cause the music only gets better and more meaningful as time goes on)... but it's just so cool to read what you thought a year ago...

( Reeeeeewind to the birth of MITO )

**Life of Lee** // in snippet form ^_^

I am seriously getting annoyed to the maximus with the instition known as CHARLES STURT UNI - the BASTARDS still haven't released any results yet!!!!!!! How long does it take to stamp [DISTINCTION] on my transcript, pop it in the mail and send it to my outstretched arms?! Honestly...

Friday night was the work xmas party and you know how there's always one who goes a bit too far, makes a fool of themselves, takes control of the kareoke/dancefoor, becomes life long mates with the bartender and ends up cloggin sink #2 in the ladies loo's before being stuffed into a cab @ 1:30?!?
I filled the position quite well unfortunately...

..and yes the pic has been downsized for a reason lol..

TOTALLEE LEGLESS I WAS! Therefore have been drinking copius amounts of H2o and snuggling into the couch took up most of my Saturday. I put on season #2 of The Hills - sad but true... and drifted in and out of conciousness (spelling?!)

Today = feeling much better, hang-over symptoms including ringing in the ears, nausea, dizzyness and that weird feeling like you've got mice running through your veins finally died away leaving me feeling human again. Praise the Lord!
So I met the chick-a-dee's in town, had a bite to eat and did some further xmas shopping and im pleaed to say, I'm ALL FINISHED!!!!!!!!! AMEN!!!!!!!!!!

Ou and i'm pretty chuffed with my knitting progress so here's a pic for you to have a gander @..



Fab huh?! Instead of making all those band logo's the lovely Erin made for me into a throw, i've opted for CUSHIONS!! I reckon it'll be so awesome to have the lounge and my bed littered with band cushions ^_^

Anywho - back to podcasting - should SO be ready this week I SWEAR!!!!!!!!!!
^_^

P.S. Lookie what I scored!!



STAR CUSHIONS!!!!!!!!!!!! What the frig is with me and cushions @ the moment..

Due to excessive shopping, travel arranging, uni breaking up and friends regaining the wonderful experience of having time to catch up again AND the fact that Mum's been in hospital...

The McFly podcast will be delayed
