3) Contemplating my relationship or lack of it to the local area pursuant to wildly reminiscing about my childhood memories of Sainsbury's Streatham Common in the pub on Saturday
4) Realising I hadn't been into Croydon... quite possibly since Christmas
5) Almost getting a job, yet somehow... not, and trying to work out how in the hell I'm going to be making any money before September 20th
6) Adam & Joe - the good bits were that good that you tend to forget that chunks of it... were a bit rub.
7) Nerves about whether or not The Delgados album is actually as good as it was in the morning
8) Balancing pride in looking reasonable due to new brown jackety-coaty thing vs. wearing it everywhere even when Old Father Sunbeam is getting all ant & magnifying glass on me
9) The bizarrely wonderful feeling of wandering around the centre of Croydon at 10 in the morning as the rain buckets down, with no-one else around, and then the horrid feeling of once again winding up shopping for records I neither need nor am likely to listen to up and down frigging Oxford Street at lunch and in the afternoon as the sun fucking blazed down upon my dubious decision to wear the brown jacket again (cos it goes so very well with collar and tie, y'know), and then the resulting sick-to-the-stomach feeling I've had all day since...
10) The Futureheads version of 'Hounds Of Love', and the fact that it really is that good.

7) A recent dream I had in which JBR and I were trying to order a neon sign for our band's stage, only we didn't have a band name nor did we care. We were more interested in what kinds of fonts the sign maker could do.
8) Animal Planet's Growing Up... series
9) The "Harmony In My Head" show on Indie 103.1 radio. Who would have thought that Rollins would make an excellent DJ?
