Tales of mucus, music and snow
Sunday, February 15th, 2009Well, feeling like a bucket of shite again. I’ve been plagued by a re-occurring cold for the past couple of months. This weekend it turned decidedly flu like. Been feeling like a pile of wank these last two days – cant breathe, and when i do my throat feels like I’ve just inhaled broken glass, and my body cant decide if i am overheating or getting hypothermia.
Its an exciting time though, despite the lergy. Joined a band recently – just realised I haven’t blogged about it yet. I’m playing bass for Infinite Loop, an alternative/indie band fronted by Spanish singer/songwriter Gorka de la Camara. Gorkas songs are excellent, and the other guys, Thor S on guitars and Arne H on drums, are really talented musicians and make me feel like a bit of a fraud. Been playing together for about a month now, and its really starting to sound good. Damn exciting.
Started my new job at Rubberduck Media Lab last week. Thats going well – nice people, and much more organised and professional than my previous job. Have lots to learn though, so aren’t feeling like i’m contributing much at the moment, but I suppose thats to be expected.
Went skiing last weekend. Sigurd and Marie treated us to a day on the slopes at Norefjell for my christmas pressy. Decided to try out snowblades (or wankerskis as my brother likes to call them). Had a seriously brilliant time, and am itching to get back on the slopes again now. Had planned on buying some snowblades yesterday, but what with the lergy it hasn’t happened yet. I’m really glad we bought a house opposite a ski slope now 
And of course theres the arrival of Igneous, our wee puppy, in a few weeks, just in case things weren’t exciting enough.
But enough of exciting things.. I’m going back to bed, try and get some sleep and get myself well again. Don’t think sleep is gonna come easy tonight though….
