If you remember...
...at the end of last post I was decidind whether to go out and see Gallows or stay home and watch Heroes. Gallows would have meant schlepping to Camden, haggling with a tout and possibly fighting hipsters in the crowd, but Gallows are a great band and they put on a great show.
Heroes is also a great show, possibly my favourite show lately. But BBC2, in a show of uncharacteristic intelligence, repeats it twice, on Thursdays and Sundays. Add to which, I would probably save myself £15 or more, and get to bed before midnight.
In the end, I did neither. I decided to lay down for a minute to meditate on these thoughts and nodded off, sleeping pretty much for 13 hours.
Anyways: doing a phone interview with a Brazillian metal band this afternoon. Should get back to prepping for that.
Over and out.

Update: The phone interview went nicely, even though I was nervous as all hell; I hadn't really done a phone interview since Fiona Horne back in 1995! Add to which, with phones there is all that weirdness of numbers and international call rates and no eye contacted etc.
But like I said, it all went fine. Groovy, one less thing to stress about.
Other news: I have pretty much memorised the basic Dewey Decimal System, insofar as I can recite the hundreds in order: 000 to 100 Computer Science, Info and General Works
100 to 200 Philosophy and Psychology
200 to 300 Religion
300 to 400 Social Sciences
400 to 500 Language
500 to 600 Science
600 to 700 Technology
700 to 800 Arts and Recreation
800 to 900 Literature and Writing
900 to 999 History, War and Geography
Yep, I wrote that off the top of my head.
The problem is that as per currently I know it in order as a whole. If you were to say 'What do I find in 700 to 800' or 'Where would I find books on French' I might stumble (to be fair, I forgot that Language went in at 400 to 500 until I realised that I had one missing).
Still, I do have twenty odd hours to work on that : )
Again, over and out.
