Now it's been exactly one month since my last post which was is completely by accident. You may think I planned it - I didn't. I have been thinking to myself “Post something meaningful”. I don't know about the meaningful part.

Life in the big city has been pretty good so far. it really isn't all that big. The most surprising thing about me being here is that I've only been to subway 3 times in about 2 months whereas in Inverness it may have been more.

Oh before I forget the whole purpose behind me posting I'll tell you all. I've discovered something truly terrifying. If you don't watch Little Britain you won't understand. If you do then... you will understand. You know that mental patient that does the odd bird noise? Well listen to the Christina Aguilera song Dirrty and about 40 seconds in you'll hear that exact bird sound. Which came first? Little Britain or Dirrty. This is ground breaking stuff people.

Back to topic now. So yeah the city is cool. The new job could be going better. I seem to have had a lot of bad luck since I started here which has inevitably led to me feeling rather sorry for myself over it all. Other than that things are good.

I was working on a small project before I moved which I'm going to try and finish of soon and get it up on the site. I was building webPod. It's basically an iPod on the screen and you use it just like a normal one (only with the cursor not your finger). the idea was that I could export my music library to and using XML + XSLT and AJAX anybody visiting the site can browse through my music collection and then go to the songs/albums/artists in iTunes (I'm such an Apple whore now aren't I).

So far living in the city has taught me: I don't like Ale, the trains are ALWAYS late, students have weird hair, Hard Rock cafe has shit food (TGI Fridays & Filling Station rule!), I can't see without my contact lenses in and finally grocery shopping can lead to divorce.
