The new Chemical Brothers album is growing on me a whole lot. I didn’t like it at all on first listen but a couple more reveals some depth. Believe and Hold Tight London are excellent and the real standouts on it. It’s not like the last album, it’s whole lot less dancy and I don’t think it’s going to do anything like as well but it’s not bad.
It’s not been a good day so far. I’ve managed to go and delete the only copy I had of my personal calendar. Of course my work one is just fine. Not happy with that. I’m hoping I have some sort of recent version at home but not really holding my breath.
Not so sure on last night. A fun evening with various from around these parts and admiration of Stu’s new tattoo. I really have to sort out my design and go get it done. The place Stu went to certainly sounds like it’s worth checking out.
Alex is away for a few days so I’m on Hebe duty, which is all good. It’ll be nice to have a quiet evening tonight. The weekend’s going to be hectic. Added to everything else, I’m off to buy half the contents of the Apple Store for McGill. Should be fun. Hopefully the packages are small and carryable, otherwise I’ll be doing some dropoffs.
It should be a fun weekend but tiring. I decided to get the Dublin tickets so that’s Monday morning. Yay for getting paid in a couple of days and then juggling everything around to splash out on lots of extra tickets. Looks like the presale for the London shows was a complete disaster and ticketmaster has suffered pretty badly. I really hope they don’t have the same problem for Dublin. I won’t be going straight to them for my tickets on Friday morning anyway!
Reading stuff, lets see I read Coupland’s Shampoo Planet and Nicholl’s Starter for Ten over the past couple of days. Nice to have a couple of books to just bang on and on about loneliness. Decent reads tho, the latter slow to start ad to really kick off but the last 50 pages or so weren’t bad. Now I’m off on The Shadow of The Wind which isn’t bad so far…for an entire 30 pages on the tube this morning.
