sometimes she feels so sad
I voted early (love Massachusetts), which meant I didn't have to queue to vote on election day. There was a wait to vote early, but only a few minutes. Overall I loved it ( Read more... ) -
but sooner or later it comes down to fate
if it seems like I only ever see movies on three day weekends, you're not far wrong ( Read more... ) -
political quiz 2016
I just took the 2016 Presidential election quiz and found that I side the most with Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders. Who do you side with?
Here are my results... ISideWith.
I wish they did one for the UK election. At least with Boris out of the picture I wouldn't have to worry about scoring 10% with him(!). -
so the story goes
I was walking back to work this morning listening to music on my iPhone (as I always do). I thought to myself hmmm, I haven't heard any Styx in a while. I wonder what that's about. Now I think I only have three or four Styx songs loaded on my iPhone out of all of my music ( Read more... ) -
short long weekend roundup
Saturday and Sunday were typical days, so I won't detail those here.
Monday was different, obviously, as it was a holiday and I didn't have to work. I originally thought about getting a Zipcar, but the weather forecast looked dicey, so I chose not to.
Instead, I napped a little in the morning, then went to see Love & Friendship at The Kendall. I ( Read more... ) -
change up
Back in July I found out that my long-time hairdresser was selling up and moving to be closer to his family. Now he's been cutting my hair for the past 20+ years. We have a great relationship. He doesn't ask me what I want to do with my hair, he just knows. He also knows that I run early, and will try and accommodate that where possible ( Read more... ) -
he talks about the people going under
This morning in the pool I heard Alanis' take on "Crazy", followed immediately by Seal's single version of the same song. What are the chances? -
put in your ear plugs, put on your eye shades
I listen to music while I swim. For a while, I was using the X1 Waterproof iPod shuffle case (formerly known as "H2O Audio"), along with a standard issue iPod shuffle. However, the case never seemed to last long, the ear plugs would eventually lose sound out of one ear or the other. In addition, the water sealant wasn't perfect, and I had a couple ( Read more... ) -
turn my face to the wall
I've had my brand new iPhone 6 for all of 28 hours now, long enough to charge it, do a couple of restores (one at home for apps, one at work for everything else), and take it out on a long walk this morning ( Read more... ) -
I never took the time
The BBC recently did a list of Top 10 cover versions, and The Pet Shop Boys' Always On My Mind topped the list. I remember keenly when I was in England during Christmas of 1987, and the song was on heavy airplay (in fact, it was the Christmas #1 for that year ( Read more... )
