tales from an ordinary world

The mournful strings of the Balanescu Quartet's cover of an old Kraftwerk tune. The CD changer is having its way with me tonight, twice coming to that old Neil Young CD. A man needs a maid, he's telling me.

Surprised by a sudden offer, of sorts. "I know you were thinking of [ something like this ] a few years ago, but things change..." She's right. I'm still vaguely keen to try my hand at living somewhere else, but at the same time, Melbourne's such a nice place to live...and of course, other factors need to be considered. Other countries intrigue me too. Canada perhaps. But...

Pablo and Andrea, one of my very favourite Yo La Tengo songs. How did it know ? It's been a good selection tonight. A fair bit of John Lee Hooker, as always.
