Happy with my new desk.

New white desk with iMac computer and speaker setup.

Wearing my badge for WFMU Fundraising Marathon fortnight. Increased my monthly contribution this year because I love this station.

I’m always late to things and so I just finished watching the first season of Reservation Dogs. It’s publicised as a comedy but the last few episodes are hugely affecting. It’s one of the best things I’ve watched in a while. Thoroughly recommended if you haven’t seen it yet. πŸ“Ί


Clear blue sky and bitter cold today. There’s been a trend, here, over the last ten years or so for the worst of winter to come in March. Snow is forecast for tomorrow.


I’m getting a new desk. The choice was between a nice, solid, Ikea desk with drawers or one with built-in usb chargers and legs that could be raised up or down depending on whether you wanted to sit or stand.

I chose the one that didn’t require a plug.


When you’re young ten years feels like an eternity. When you’re older it goes by in a flash.
