Song of the Day: Monday

Today was weird. First day back after a four day weekend. I had trouble getting to sleep then trouble waking up. I had a bit of a headache and nauseous all day; taking meds only made me sleepy. So, I went home early and got some interesting news.

Anyway, this is the song that's been in my head this evening. It seems to fit my mood since it's a little odd. I first heard of Moloko when I was Austria for a course during the summer after my first year. I don't remember what song or album it was that I heard. I just know this wasn't it. But, strange as it is, I like this. My favorite line? Singing a song about nothing/talking through my belly button.

Song of the Day: Monday

My infernal relationship with the nook has ended. My current device has died and my extended warranty end early this month. After spending over 5 hours trying to get numerous CSRs to understand and help me, I am done. As a consequence of the loss of my loved one, I am back to reading print.

I am currently reading Dostoevsky's "Notes from the Underground." Ugh! I know I am part Russian in my soul, but I am struggling with the writing. I have finally found a line that I like: “I agree that two times two makes four is an excellent thing; but if we are dispensing praise, then two times two makes five is sometimes a most charming little thing as well.” I'm not sure why I like it but I do.


Anyway, this song seems reminds me of this story: it makes no sense, but you can't quite stop reading.
