made the first of five compilations for the cafe today... jon and ben were both feeling frustrated at the sameness the cafe cd selection... so here's the first of my selections from my iPod favourites. some of these tracks are unashamedly uncool - this is the kind of stuff i sneak on when no one's looking and i need to remind myself what it feels like to be youthfully optimistic and fuzzily loved in the style of a kylie/jason (or indeed joey/dawson, mulder/scully, maddie/david) montage... so even if no one else is, i'll be delusionally happy at least...

i carry my joy on my left and my pain on my right...(thanx to bjork for inspiration)
i shall be listening to my own copy of this selection as i work on the cheerier of my two collages for the cafe installation. stu acted as woodwork teacher yesterday and i built my two frames (both 2and a 1/2 feet high by 6 feet wide). i now know how to use a big mofo of a circular saw and a power drill/screwdriver.

i have just been presented with a set of amazing glass door knobs for my bedroom door, thanks to a trip made by my land lord and lady to a reclamation yard... very classy, very sexy, very cool... i'm overcome with a fixtures&fittings fetishistic feeling...
which isn't a bad way to end a Wednesday...
