I stole this from Ms. gingerhobbit as I like the idea of it, and hey, maybe I'll actually post for the next seven days... though I may need reminded.

day 01 | a song
day 02 | a picture
day 03 | a book
day 04 | a site
day 05 | a youtube clip
day 06 | a quote
day 07 | whatever tickles your fancy

My song is Leave The Bourbon On The Shelf by the Killers. I looked down the list I'm compiling of my favourite songs, and I didn't want to pick anything obvious. And I came down to this. This is my favourite Killers song that hasn't been released. It's off the album of B-Sides and Rarities, Sawdust. But more importantly it's the missing part of the Murder Trilogy which takes the form of this, Midnight Show and Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine.

The Killers are my favourite band and I just think this song shows their strengths. And I absolutely love the story these three songs create. The Killers have this way of weaving tales and stories in their songs that I haven't really found anywhere else.

I think I'm going to (try) and do this, every single day. Just keep rotating through until I get bored with it! Tomorrow, a picture. Hmm...

In other news, I am officially a resident of 14 Dilcock Road, also known as Duncan's house! I moved in Saturday with the help of the parentals. Unpacked pretty quickly and have settled nicely. Well I did basically live here anyway, except now my stuff is here and I pay rent! Spent the week doing various things: job hunting, reading (currently re-reading The Time Travellers Wife as I saw the film the other week and it made me want to re-read it), gaming (Just finished Ratchet and Clank. Great game!), and I've started up writing my end of the world novel from last year's NaNoWriMo. Which will be here again soon! I may do what I did last year and spend a week or so before finding a starting line, or a vague idea and see where it goes! It worked last year! And if I plan something too much I get bored with it.

I really need a hair cut.
