Steve Jobs and Mark Thompson - just so you know, you're both on my shit list today.

I'm not a fan of universally slamming bankers, but if your bank suffered record losses why is the a bonus to turn down?

What our kids want to be when they grow up: Thomas - doctor, Nathan - a fairy... with a magic wand

Tuesday, February 23, 2010

Heard chattering upstairs and went up to find Nathan had climbed into Tommy's bed. Very cute. Difficult to be mad.
Bl00dy snowing again. What a winter.

Sunday, February 21, 2010

Watching Nath speed skating pm the wooden floor. Very cute.

Wow. ME2. One of the best starts to a game ever. After dragon age, dunno if my heart can take it.
Planet 51 was fun and the kids were stars as usual.

Morning started badly. Couldn't get out of drive - ice compacted so far a spade could barely get through. Now working from home.

Dollhouse... Victor as Tofer... genius. Why cancel when it was just hitting it's stride?

Thursday, January 28, 2010

Suffering from too many broken nights' sleep thanks to my knackered nose. Like being a new parent again.

Tuesday, January 26, 2010

Woke at four due to truly disturbing dream, then kids awake at quarter past six. Today's gonna be fun.

Reliving my youth watching Nirvana at Reading. Goosepimples throughout. Unbelievable.
Aw crap. It's snowing.

Tuesday, December 22, 2009

Amused at the fact that my youngest thinks Father Christmas lives in our village. He keeps mishearing Northop Hall, bless him.

Sunday, December 20, 2009

Yay. Rage did it. I don't care what label they're on - this was exactly the single to be the final Christmas no.1 of the decade.

Thought avatar was stunning. 3d was worthwhile but not faultless. Film itself was lovely.Cgi was seamless. Surprisingly good story too.

Really starting to get annoyed by this southeast-centric news and weather. :(

Know I should feel sorry for berlusconi, but I just can't. Is it wrong to find it a bit funny?
Nice that a wife-beater won sports personality (even). They're a neglected group.

Second nighttime migraine. Need to work out the trigger. Probably that bloody blue light on the radio alarm.

Cannot recommend @NPR too much (@allsongs anyway). Subscribe to the podcasts, particularly the Live one. Thanks @Villagepig for the tip.

Wow. This new circus sitcom looks really, really bad.

Mumford & Sons. Like Fleet Foxes with attitude.
Finally got a chance to listen to the latest Muse album. Mammoth! It's a glorious beast.
Can't believe that I had a perfect chance for a mini-sleep in and yet was wide awake at seven. Grrr.

Amy Winehouse and Katie Price appear to be merging into one.
Perhaps I shouldn't, but I find Miranda strangely enjoyable.

"I'm a celeb" bunch of nobodies and hasbeens. Most of them seem pretty annoying. Should be ace.

Listening to "Bug" by Dinosaur Jr. Had forgotten just how immense it was. Got to be one of my favourite albums.

Saturday, November 07, 2009

Just watched happy feet with the kids. Emotionally drained.

A guy on tv has been stripping salmon (male and female). Think he and I are both scarred by the experience.
No, my accounts have not been hacked. I honestly do want you to check out my friend's iphone app - Balloons! - Chris :)
Big-up to Balloons! for iPhone, a friend of mine's new iPhone app. Please give it a go and buy the full version if you like it.

Last.fm and iTunes are still disagreeing like politicians and scientific advisors.

Why do so many people think that appearing on Ellen/Oprah is the equivalent of being published in "Nature"?
The idea of the clocks going back was invented by someone who hates parents.

Saturday, October 24, 2009

I think I'm in love with Joanna Page.
Watching last night's Jonathan Ross. Boy George appears to be turning into Grotbags.

This episode of buzzcocks is car crash, but absolute genius.
Ah. Barely six and I'm off to Peterborough. Joy.

Sunday, October 18, 2009

Just setup a wireless router as a wireless access point. I know it's not much, but I'm chuffed.
Well done Jenson, well done Brawn. Brilliant stuff.

Migraine through the night. That's novel... and rather annoying.

This week's listening

Bit of a weird one this week. No more N95, now have an HTC Hero - which is lovely. Plus, as of early last week I now have a huge, big iPod Classic.

So now my listening is going really nicely. But my scrobbling hasn't been.

Seems the latest version of iTunes and/or the latest version of the Last.fm scrobbler don't work with the latest iPod Classic.

Finally got something working tonight by using a little app. called LastPod. It's working, but has only scrobbled what I've been listening to since I last synced with iTunes.

So I won't post my week's listening, but normal service should resume next week.

KTHXBAI

I'm sure the biggest thing that contributes to the NHS having a bad name is the attitude of GPs receptionists.

Can't get rid of the taste of that Durian Fruit sweet. It's like someone's been sick in my mouth.
Really not feeling it today.
