Night time

This is a 'what I am doing right now' post. It's pretty pointless, I suppose, but I'm sure there'll be a few of these on here from time to time.

It's just after half one in the morning. Some film called Zatoichi has just started on tv. I'm only half watching it, though, since I'm typing this and also arranging some music that I recently recorded so that I can get them near what I can turn into demoable songs. It's a productive night for me, as getting through all of the music is taking a long time. I'll be wrapped with this batch in about a half an hour, thankfully.

This Zatoichi thing looks like it could be pretty gory. It has a cool atmosphere about it, though. The fact that it's subtitled is handy because it means I can half follow the film while listening to the music on the headphones. Forget that, actually. The Fog is on the other channel so I've decided to give that a go for the millionth time. That's the 1980 John Carpenter classic, not that goliath shitheap of a remake.

And that's what I'm doing now, while my two gems are asleep in the bedroom. He'll be ready for his bottle at half four or so. I'll most probably do that one and let my girlfriend lie on and get a good sleep until his next one. We have a good wee system set up working the feeds and changes into our everyday routine.

Jeez, I just realised that between everything I've been doing it has taken me over three quarters of an hour to write this post. One thing must be said before I go, however. Despite all the typing and music and tv right now - despite everything - the baby monitor continues to rule the roost. Who'd a thunk it??*

(*Disclaimer: I tried who'd a thunk it?? a few ways and decided that the closest configuration was what you see here. If you disagree, feel free to let me know. Seriously. Stuff like that, where you can't really find a definitive answer because it's not proper english, really annoys me.)
