Saw Children of Men tonight. It was very good and quite thought-provoking, but one part amused the shit out of me: It's 2027, and the main character's old hippie dad is listening to....Radiohead. Yes, twenty-five years from now, Radiohead will the the music of old hippies.

I could deal with that.

I have decided that the "shuffle" function on my iPod is the best thing ever. It's my own personal radio station! I need to take the Christmas music off of it, though. It's fantastic--yesterday morning it went from They Might Be Giants to NIN to Charlotte Church to DJ Assault to Johnny Cash to Depeche Mode. Bwah ha ha, beware my playlist. Somehow the subject came up the last time I was at People's, and the cashier said that his iPod and its shuffle function have changed his life. I think I believe him.

I only have 554 songs on it. Must...aquire...more... I should stop by my parents' house soon and grab all my old CDs. All, what, two hundred of them? I also have some here that are burned copies from friends, they're not on there only because I've been too lazy to type in all the track titles. I should do, like, one of them a day or something.

Jarrod and I went to the mall today and among other things, returned the mp3/CD player he bought me for Christmas. Instead we got a gadget that plugs into the outlet of his car and puts the iPod on an FM station while charging the iPod. It was tricky to find a frequency that would work (lots of radio stations around here, arrgh). We made the station we chose a preset, hee hee hee.

Jarrod and I might be overfond of eating mushrooms. I swear mushrooms sneak into half our dinners these days. We went to Uwajimaya's earlier, and bought two kinds of dried mushrooms and one kind fresh, and then I made something resembling chow mein and they all ended up in there. Mmmmm...shiitakes and chanterelles and enoki and black fungus and miatakes, yummy!

Jarrod is the master of the Rubik's cube.
