Working on an outdoor project at the moment. Nice to be out of the office for a couple of days.

Ear-food: 'Best Friend Envy' (The Brunettes)

The world's coolest motor yacht? Take a look at LD43 on oystermarine.com

Ear-food: 'Anthems for a 17 year-old girl' (Broken Social Scene)

Phew! One of the toughest weeks I've had in years! Decided I deserved a reward, so just now we're enjoying an exquisite Pauillac.

Ear-food: 'A Little Consolation' (Now It's Overhead)

Four meetings today and working in three different groups! Early bird tomorrow, that's for sure.

Ear-food: 'The Eggplant That Ate Chicago' (Norman Greenbaum)

Writer's block...

Ear-food: 'Filter Dub' (Seefeel)

Loaded with work. My father in hospital. Going abroad in October. Pasta salad for dinner.

Ear-food: 'Niobe' (Caribou)

Apple just lauched a range of new iPods - "in time for the holiday season". I have three pods already (the Shuffle is the only one I use), but I must admit the new 160 GB is tempting. Not for carrying 40.000 songs (who needs that, unless you're going backpacking for a year or two?), but as a transportable harddisk.

Ear-food: 'Ride' (A Mountain of One)

A few too many glasses of wine yesterday.

Ear-food: 'Green Tea' (Nurse & Soldier)

A pipe broke at my parents' house today - 2 inches of water in the basement. Guess who was called and had to leave work - just to do the only possible thing; call the plumber?

Ear-food: 'Sycamore' (Bill Callahan)

Seriousness is the only refuge of the shallow.

Ear-food: 'Ivanka' (Imperial Teen)
