Bad habits I’ve picked up
- Salting food before tasting it
- Chewing gum
I’m looking forward to dinner tomorrow. To celebrate coming out on top after some busy weeks, our team is having Mexican food at Covent Garden.
What I got done this weekend
- Went to the gym twice
- Booked accommodation for my upcoming trip to Germany
- Cooked ‘quick meatball casserole’ from my favourite recipe book. Tonight’s dish plus ‘oven baked risotto’ takes me up to 14% of the 101 recipes.
- Roasted herbed chicken and potatos (with paprika)
- Did a mega grocery shop
- Researched and bought an MP3 player
- Cleared my inbox
Things I didn’t get done
- Tidy my room
- Make Greek salad, stuffed peppers, Mapo tofu or sausages in chilli tomato sauce (but I bought the ingredients)
- Laundry and ironing
- Getting my hair cut
- Finish reading Guns, Germs and Steel
- Process all the photos from my Chinese New Year weekend.
I bought the exact same MP3 player last weekend. I find it very slow to transfer data (~48 minutes to fill it up). Also it inserts clicks and pops into (VBR) tracks that sound fine elsewhere.
I don’t mind so much how slow the data transfer is. But I’ve read that the battery life of the Creative Stone is poor. That would inconvenience me much more.
I don’t want to be an iPodder!
