Not a big fan of this week.
I walked into my office and immediately spied the wrapped half of a chocolate bar I left here yesterday. That, combined with remembering to change the batteries in my mp3 player, made me think that maybe today would be better.
Plug in my mp3 player, try to turn it on… nothing. I put the wrong battery in. Instead of one of my fully charged batteries I put an old dead one in. I guess I’ll be listening to some crappy live365 station, where their idea of “indie” music is Karma Chameleon by Culture Club. You could say I was a bit shocked when that came up on my chosen station yesterday.
Thank goodness for that chocolate bar, or today could have potentially surpassed yesterday in being a crappy day.
On a happier note, happy 23rd birthday to my crazy friend Roseanne! Wish I was in Regina celebrating with you!

Hi Brea,
You could try listening to the radio stations in iTunes… some of them are pretty good. 1.FM being one of my favourites, back when I was listening.
Winamp also has the shoutcast network… http://www.shoutcast.com. It’s basically the same deal but if you prefer Winamp then this would be the way to go.
Of course, all this depends on whether or not you have access to install stuff on your computer. If you don’t, Windows Media Player is supposed to have some sort of radio thing as well that I’ve never used.
Good luck!

I’m a huge fan of Accuradio if you’re shopping around, especially for their Paste station.
