hey just wanted to drop you a note straight from the source. everyone knows tour has been pushed back- no i am not dead (unless this is the replaced robot me writing this), no noone is in rehabd. hopefully you know how much we love to tour and want to keep going- after some things coming up- it is in the best interest of the health of the band and its members to take just a couple weeks to catch up. we plan to tour for a long time after this soo stay tuned. also, expect some little things popping up here and there- (suprises at shows and whatnot) as we feel that is also important to the health of our band and our fans.

And yet, on the blogspot:

take a vote, the eyes have it. but the knives have our back.

"An ending fitting for the start
you twist and tore our love apart
your light fingers through the dark
shattered the lamp- into darkness it cast us..."

"No you've got it the wrong way round-
just shut me up and blamed it on the brown"
cornered the boy kicked out at the world, the world kicked back
alot fuckin' harder...

If you wanna try, If you wanna try
there's no worse you could do (oh oh oh)
I know you lie (I know you lie)
I'm still in love with you (oh oh oh)

Have we enough to keep it together?
or do we just keep on pretending (and hope our
luck is never ending)...

you cant stand me now, you cant stand me...."

I feel sick.

Wherein I display my latent hypochondria...

Yeah, so, welcome to Rosie's royally fucked up body clock.

It's 10am; I just got back from the supermarket. I woke up around 4pm, yesterday and haven't been to bed, yet.

This week I have mostly been going to bed around 7am and getting up around 5.30pm.

At the end of last week, I went to bed around 1am Saturday morning, got up at around 9-9.30am Pacific Time and, aside from some light drowsing on the planes between Vancover and Chicago and Chicago and London, I didn't sleep again until around 3.30am Tuesday morning.

Calculating these hours, I was awake for something like 60 straight, existing on a packet of ProPlus, two cans of Red Bull and quite a bit of coffee and Pepsi. And donuts.

I've had a headache ever since and I'm shaking more than 'normal'. Nice. I'm back at work on Tuesday, so I'll better get that sorted.

On the subject of shaking, my left hand - specifically my two outer fingers - have begun to tremor. They have always been prone to bad circulation more than anywhere else in my body, but Julie actually saw my fingers twitching on several occasions while we were on holiday.

I just looked up Parkinson's disease as it seems to run in my family which, although rare, does happen - as does 'young onset' Parkinsons's; approximately 1:20 of all cases. My father's father is suffering from it now, but because he lives in Sicily and I don't, I wasn't that familiar with the intricacies of the symptoms. Having looked at the official Society website... I think it'd be a good idea if I keep an eye on the tremor.

Go me.
