Things move at a fantastic pace. Stop. A full weekend. First things first. A new section on afrojet that I’m experimenting with is called “on the hi fi”. It’s an apple script called i tunes track info and it harnesses the power of Mac OSX and itunes. It grabs whatever song is currently being played on my itunes and uploads for all to see. Clicking on the “artist” opens up a google search. It wont change the world but it’s kinda fun. It’s still pretty buggy. If there isn’t anything in the “on the hi-fi” box it means that i’m not listening to anything and/or it has crashed.

I can’t believe how hooked I have become on reality TV as of late. I seriously watched the full three hours of the Survivor season finale and enjoyed the whole thing. The bible thumper Vecepia won I was not pleased. Actually hell I didn’t want either of them to win. I am already excited for the season five in Thailand. The location looks beautiful.

I enjoyed “About a Boy” very much and found the Soundtrack to be even better. Jodi lent me The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky on Saturday. Which is also about a boy, Charlie, and his tale of growing up in the ninth grade. It’s one of the best books i’ve ever read. It reminded me of high school in a way that was like being right back in the mix again. I am bummed Mr. Chbosky hasn’t written anything else. He needs to. The combination of seeing About A boy and reading Charlie’s tale put a nice old school tint on the whole weekend.

Found great things at garage sales and Kelly bought her first ever garage sale purchase. Old Fine Young Cannibals and Modern English Tapes. The high school nostalgia just kept creeping into the weekend. I bought some great records and a space age atlas put out by Rand McNally in the 60’s. It’s filled with micro graphics of the moon and and a map of our solar system.

Built a garden bed box with Jodi last night after spending $240.00 to give the Brougham a new Muffler. It was sounding like a drag racer. We employed some avant-guard wood working techniques, but in the end it all looked pretty damn good. The sun was setting and we enjoyed a smoke and a beer and looked at the completed project and talked about the Wallflower book. Very nice. I need to buy a house. soon.
