i do not have some weird lamp obsession.. weird lamps just appear in my life, randomly and uninvited.

always always ALWAYS eject!!!!!

IT IS one of the most basic things when disconnecting devices from computers.. and yet, it's probably one of those things most people (? ..or at least i do) "forget" to do. your computer even warns you that "data may be lost if you do not eject the device properly before disconnecting it from the source" (or something to that effect).. but very rarely are any data lost (or at least not the sort of data you'd notice if it was missing).

i synced my ipod (aka douglas) last week.. completely and utterly failed to eject it before disconnecting it from my macbook (aka fry).. BUT obviously waited to disconnect it until the "do not disconnect" message on douglas was shut off. this usually works.. no, not usually, THIS HAS ALWAYS WORKED IN THE PAST.

put on an album and discovered that the album artwork had been wiped. put on another album, then another... ALL WIPED! tried syncing it again, when that failed i tried resetting it. that failed too. re-imported the album artwork to itunes.. but NO! every single album cover was gone.
not the end of the world, but annoying. decided to leave it for a few days, trying to find a way to get the artwork back...somehow. with 10589 files in itunes, restoring it was my very last option.

decided to take the plunge today.. connected douglas to fry, power on, restore button, click.

(lesson learned)

it's taking forever to upload all my music from fry to douglas.. but will defo be well worth it as long as i get my beloved album covers back on douglas!

shoeses.. sweet, sweet shoeses

just got back from having spent a lovely weekend in gothenburg with my friends sophie and kalle.. more on that in a day or two (or when i have uploaded the pics from my camera)..

adopted these lovely don donna clogtypeshoeses at nk in gothenburg earlier today.. love at first sight (as with most.. erm, all of my shoeses).

(don donna clogtypeheels)

another three pairs of shoeses have been welcomed into my rainbow-family of footwear this past month.. the top two via sweet lauren!

(office girl with heart-ribbon-detail)

(erm, wellington brogues.. rubber top-to-toe.. i admit i missed that tiny little detail when i ordered them on the office website.. they'll come in well handy in autumn oxford no doubt though!)

(too big/long, soon-to-be-auctioned-off-on-ebay kate kanzier brogues.. but oh so pretty!)

disturbingly creepy (and so WRONG) clown lamp found in a shop in järnvägsgatan, helsingborg. does eff all to ease my coulrophobia!

(too much clown on clown action for my prudish self)


exhibit B.

hasse andersson. angel buddy. the swedish equivalent of johnny cash? you decide! this 40 sec audio bite is the best i can do.. the ever elusive angel buddy!

(hasse und der engel hund)


exhibit C.

another great find, courtesy of my friend lina.. think i'll let this vid speak for itself!


(more death to all but metal)


exhibit D.

and lastly but not leastly.. this wonderful example of a piece of 2010 essex english: "-...yea she lives near that decapitated buildin'. -ar fink you mean derelict innit. -yea well woteva, same fing....."

(a romford bus)

thanking little lauren for this wonderful quote! :)
