A few things to entertain myself
Work is going to be quite slow today as half of the office is out in client land, so I have arranged several things to make the day go by
#1: I have declared today to be KrautRock Friday!
Today's playlist will consist of Can, Popol Vuh, Faust, Neu!, Ash Ra Tempel, Amon Duul (I & II) and a few others. I am totally in the mood to listen to these guys today but I am not sure how long that will last as they are normally mellower mood music and I am completely caffinated now.
#2: Wootoff! The "one deal a day" bargain website is having a wootoff which means they put a lot of a product up at a discount and once they are all gone, we get another one right away instead of having to wait until the next day. Keeps the day moving, although it's lagging on a 4 pack of wine right now.
#3: This is one I need help from all you shutterbugs out there on. I'm looking for a compact, fast pocket digital. I don't need anything specifically high res or big zoom (although I'd like to keep it around or above 4MP and 3x optical) as the goal here is something small to keep in the pocket, that boots and shoots quick. I want to be able to take one picture right after another with no significant time spent writing to the card or any crap like that. Right now the front runners are the Casio Exilim series, either the EX-Z1000 or it's little brother the EX-S600 but if anyone has any advice or recommendations, I am open...I'd like to keep it in the $250-$300 range though. And the price is assuming I get some cash for christmas.
#4: I'm upgrading my work laptop today. We just started getting a new model as all of our ThinkPad t40 models are coming off lease and the new ones are Core Duo, which is exciting to me. It's my first dual core chip. Yeah, I'm a nerd.
