Back from holidays, loaded up on CDs and books and fast food.
I bought some decent computer speakers too.
I'm so glad I found Richard Strauss' Orchestral works; Don Juan, Till Eulenspiegel (studied in music class last year, awesome 16 1/2 min orchestral piece) and Also Sprach Zarathustra (intro is the theme to 2001: A Space Odyssey).
I spent all day today in a car travelling through nothing, staring at the grey sky as it rained all day, only to come home and check my work roster. Tomorrow I start work at 6:30 in the morning. And many mornings after.
Great holiday, now work will slaughter me, but my life is still good, and now my brother's Guitar Hero 3 records show that I have the highest score on Through The Fire and Flames on Medium, and Knights of Cydonia on Hard. It's a small victory considering that I tried a vs mode online, and got totally owned by someone I've never met, rendering my skills on the game "Average".
