Senses working overtime #568

1 Busy week!

A midweek trip to Auckland for two days + three teaching days + a school open day on Saturday ratcheted up the busy-ness.

2 Watching: The Iris Affair (TV on Demand)

This started out well but after three episodes it is starting to wobble a little bit. There's only so much suspension of disbelief that is possible over ten episodes (each lasting an hour).  

3 Listening: Argent - Argent

A prog rock offshoot from The Zombies. Hits all the right marks for me.

4 Reading: Ego is the Enemy - Ryan Holiday

I finally found a copy in a great bookstore in Parnell on our visit to Auckland midweek.

5 Listening: WTWMC - Weather with you

The playlist has reached its bonus week after 4 weeks and 60 songs (clearly I've missed a song in the loong week just gone - the spreadsheet team needs to come to the rescue).

Overtime: Ryan Holiday

'Ego is the wicked sister of success'.

Senses working overtime #44

I know I'm odd.

Here are five pieces of evidence for the defence:

1 I prefer winter!
Apparently that makes me smarter! Who knew?

2 I need books, lots of...books!
I have always been a reader but my appetite has increased in the last year. I am not alone!

3 Mega composites

Love these odd mega composites from Stephen Wilkes

4 Winter blues

I'm missing London winter weather. Even more so after reading this!

5 Star Wars

These damn fine fan art posters are rilly cool! I've included them before but they just keep coming! Thanks odd fan people for keeping it unreal.

Overtime: My old mate Greg (I've known him forever and he is old, although I'm older) included a really great song on his site this week - Argent's Hold Your Head Up. Indeed they can! But odd? Well it's a prog classic but it's actually a great pop song from the former Zombie.

Until next week...caio for naio.
