The Fridge Door
I can feel my brain being reprogrammed every time I open the fridge door.

Music @ Work
Listening to the excellent CBC Radio 3 podcast while at work these days. Aside from the occasional offensive hip-hop track (really not my thing), I'm loving most of the stuff they play.

First on my list to check out is Christine Fellows, whose track Vertebrae really tugs at my insides.
