Having mountains around is really odd. I'm used to my landscape being very suburban and flat, possibly incorporating a lake. Mountains have never really been part of the equation. It's very peculiar now to be living partway up one and to be able to see two more from my window. They're not even very large mountains, just little-ish rounded ones, but they kind of seem ominous. Very strange.
At the book sale the other week I bought a bunch of vinyl records and cassettes. I really like cassettes. Especially of the mixtape persuasion. One of the tapes was In Utero by Nirvana, which I already own on CD but owning it on cassette too seemed like a good idea. In order to take myself even further down the technological scale I have asked for a Walkman for Christmas. Everyone will be walking around all hip with their iPods and whatnot and I will be listening to my Walkman. It'll be fantastic.
