After hours of searching

I found all my old pixies albums, yes yes yes!! Carly and I had a nostalgic listen to a bunch of Carlys old mix cds on Friday night because we had no ipod speakers and the radio was dance Ibiza club classics 20million or something horrible on every frequency (well probably apart from radio 6 but we couldn't remember the station) so old mix cds it was.

Anyway the Pixies came on and Carly told me loads of peoples favourites Pixies song. I personally can't really say what mine is because its too hard, I think Holiday Song used to be my favourite, but as soon as I commit to one I remember other ace songs like gouge away (Carlys favourite) or Monkey gone to heaven, or Planet of Sound or Alec Eiffel and Dig for Fire is pretty great too, and then I don't really want Holiday Song to be singled out as better than all the above (but it is REALLY good).

Anyway thats off topic really. So after listening to/discussing the Pixies on Friday I spent this morning searching for my old albums to put back on my ipod and was successful, hurray! I also feel a bit sad that I always listen to music off a computer or through ipod speakers or whatever. I quite wish I had a record player I guess, or at least my old cd player that Clare stole. I miss when I used to go shopping to buy an album and then put it straight in my walkman and listen to it on repeat for a few hours while deciding if track 3 was better than track 10. ipods are obviously great but I guess it's kind of sad that they've taken over.

Maybe this has been brought on by a combination watching high Fidelity (John Cusack isn't as annoying as usual, but someone being called Laura in a film drives me a bit mad) and my recent semi-hatred for digital cameras. Which is probably making me hate all things technological (with the exception of my MacBook). Humm, perhaps I'm just getting old I sound quite like an oap.

Recent Brook Cottage news includes Libby being left unattended and demolishing an entire massive bag of crisps including half of the actual bag and eating a green marker pen and getting green ink on just about everything. The handbrake in the C1 still scaring me despite behaving itself. Everyone being up for going family bowling on my birthday, haha.
