A show about computers and technology on the radio. When that ends Kaizers Orchestra, a norwegian folk/macedonian/industrial band with lyrics about gangsters and russian roulette. The sound of coffee brewing. Mmm… coffee… ---

I am listening to the sound of howling winds and rain pelting my windows… I also have the movie Se7en on in the background. It’s the scene where the SWAT team is screaming “D_cks! D_cks! Get in here!” ---

The fan. And occasionally a child’s voice will be loud enough to make it up here, as B’s helping them paint. **insomnia** , how does one shout an asterisk?😉 ---

The Starlight Mints’ Valerie Flames is playing on the computer here in the bedroom. My grandpa’s antique desk fan is buzzing away, such a nice sound. Windchimes bing-bonging softly out on the balcony. Wishing it was cool enough to go sit outside and enjoy an iced tea on this summer afternoon… ---

The occasional chirp of a bird, windchimes, the jingling of my dog’s collar, my son practicing his bass and my daughter practicing her guitar, along with the soft hum of my computer and gentle tapping of the keys as I type. ---

**PDA** by Interpol. Check 'em out. They’re like a present-day, less depressing Joy Division. And I mean that in a good way.
