  • irc

Watching

  • Cruel Intentions
  • CSI and CSI:Miami
  • The Lyon's Den

  • GalaxyQuest

Listening

  • Lots of stuff on random play from this collection
  • Franz Ferdinand: Franz Ferdinand (more than once)
  • Terrorvision: Good to Go
  • Fear Factory: as music to go to sleep to
  • Several tracks with Jesus in the title, on a whim

Reading? 'The Neutronium Alchemist' (again), New Scientist, The Financial Times Weekend. Will probably read the Grauniad if I take a train into London (still not too late to hit Borders!). John Hull, 'Options, Futures and other Derivatives'. Must re-read Friday although the sense of being 'other' or an outsider is one that I am keen not to cultivate.

Watching: no telly, I get bored very quickly with the mood I'm in. I'll probably Load up the DVD edition of LOTR again.

Listening:

  • Creedence Clearwater Revival: Cosmo's Factory
  • Sheryl Crow: Sheryl Crow
  • U2: The Joshua Tree
