Dinner of Heinz vegetable soup, instant noodles (curry flavour) and pasta & chicken— trying a few cost-cutting initiatives
Installed Skype iPhone app but have to try it out yet. Any Twitterers out there used it yet, what’s the good, the bad, & the ugly?
It’s a Ryan Adams (@cardinology) kind of day, particularly “My Winding Wheel” http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/song/My_Winding_Wheel/558
On the 8 after curry and Kingfisher time w/ Mattias. Think Swedish snowboard trip to Are is going to happen after Easter…

Crashed some kind of event last night in the bottom of Victoria House near Holborn, good music and people, fun times
Just heard very cool BBC story via WAMU about 25yr old London entreprenuer bringing cloud computing to the developing world, rentable apps
Sun can shine right in my eyes here at work, would can cause creen glare but it’s never that sunny in London (os opposed to Philadelphia…)
I’m so glad that potty humour is alive and well here in the UK, who said Americans are the crude ones: http://tinyurl.com/cux3kl
Lovely, sunny day in central London. Going to eat lunch in Bloomsbury Park, come join us.
RT @stereogum: Death Cab have a new five-song EP, we’re posting a song a day this week. First up: “Little Bribes” http://tinyurl.com/djb2fa
Was sunny here today in london and now suddenly it’s pissing down rain
Pure coincidence, Au Revoir SImone’s remix of Friendly Fires’ “Paris” came on during flight yesterday. Was anthem for my 10hrs in Paris.
Ok, finally on the EastJet flight to Paris, only six hours late. Always remember your passport :) at least this was personal, not biz trip
Still hanging out at Luton after the passport fiasco this morning. Good people watching though, liking the think-time as well
Reason the first few carriages (cars) of this Sunday morning train aren’t being used? Couldn’t be cleaned properly (i.e. Sat. night puke).
On Luton train, en route to Paris, listening to Plej’s song, ‘And So Lay the Land,’ reading Zakaria’s ‘Post-American World.’ Life is good.
Almost sh*tted a brick tonight b/c of Mother’s day tomorrow, but realized that’s UK (my Mom is in U.S). But will call her tomorrow anyways
What happens in Frome, UK, when Viagara is in the hands of a girl at uni: http://tinyurl.com/dj6aaw Hat tip to my good friend from Frome
Listening to Adam Carolla podcast 3-17 with creator of The Family Guy.

Is there no better Fri. song than Mariah Carey’s song “Fantasy” remixed by ODB http://tinyurl.com/cmbp2z I think not
On way home and listening to the Too Beautiful to Live podcast from March 11th. Yes, I’m a London 10 and by default, a time bandit. Yeehaw!

Spring officially arrived in London, at least in my book, ate lunch outside in the park with the sun keeping us warm

Copy/paste on my iPhone. Can’t wait to get home and sync up. Crazy that it’s taken this long to get here
About to indulge: double pepper angus burger & large chips from Burger King and chilli & rice from Sainsbury’s. God help me (or my stomach)
Sun is shining on my cube in ofc today via internal skylight column that slices down middle of the bldg. One way to enjoy a sunny London day
So enjoying the sun and listening to a little Coldplay, not a bad day at all http://tinyurl.com/cjy3w7
Went to for it and shaved the head, needed it after the post-holiday shagginess http://twitpic.com/26cqt
Perhaps the highlight of the Bulgarian snowboarding trip http://twitpic.com/26cre
Excited Burton P1.1 bindings arrived after customs delay but disappointed since just returned from Bulgarian trip, guess I need to go again
Morning Twitterland, back on the grid after week-long snowboarding trip in Bulgaria. What did I miss?

At Irish Pub in Bansko right milking the free wifi. Very interesting being in former communist country, lots of remnants of the past.
On Wizz Air flight to Bulgaria, not quite sure what I’m in for but here we go…
Still at Luton, watching Arsenal game on Gary’s laptop via illegal Sky Sports feed, on way to Bulgaria for snowboarding. Life could be worse
