NEW question of the day...
what are you listening to?

grrr Brynn just beat me to asking the new question. Great question Freida, great answers as well.


sound: I'm itching to hear some PJ Harvey so will look for some next, but right now there's a male cat on the chair next to me (Needs a Name) grooming a foster kitten. It's pretty noisy and grunty.

i am listening to myself chewing on my breakfast, my computer humming and the storm outside

XFM London and the sudden stillness after my long-not-seen-friend-who-is-back-in-Berlin-now who visited me today in office is gone.

I am listening to myself, to see if I can pick out the melody, but it's rather faint today.

The freezer hums a low note
The refrigerator too;
The furnace rumbles and hot air sighs.
A failing neon bulb's delicate
and intermittent sizzle descants
over the thumps and tenors
of the playing cats.
The keyboard clicks.
And in my head the memory of
last night's sustained delicious moan.

Old Old CD :
Black - Wonderful Life

Just thought to youtube search for the video - and lo and behold...



Gosh, I loved this Album.

the spouse. :)

i'm listening to ventilation & heating noises, and some faint traffic noises emanating from Houston avenue.

husband in the kitchen unloading the dishwasher, and car talk on NPR

a faint hum from the central heating, and the fan as it comes on

slight tinnitus in my right ear

thumpity thump noises of my fingers on the HP keyboard

tiny ticcing of the HD...

¿ question of the day ? for sunday 3rd february


how good is your couch/settee/sofa?

It's got a nice beat, you can dance to it.

I'd give it a 7.

I'm more attached to the one upstairs, because I have good memories of the two of us playing Sega Game Gear together, and sharing many a happy nap through hypothyroidism and pregnancy. Today it is mostly Katie's domain, where she retires as soon as the house is empty. It's a gooder.

I have a really stiff, uncomfortable, really snooty sofa. Maybe it's stiff because I haven't broken it in, and I haven't broken it in because it's too stiff, either way it really fails at its purpose in life.

ohh it's so good, i give it a 9,5.

it's more comfortable to sleep on than my bed. it's big and soft and 2 meters wide, in a linen/cotton mix in beige.

it goes *poof* when you sit down on it, and then, you sink away in it, it hugs you. i'm very happy with it :):)
