I seem to be on something of an acquisition spree lately. It all started back in March with my new iMac; it continued full steam ahead with the wonderful, wonderful chair; it’s chugged along the past few weeks with a wok, some Philip Pullman books, a Marshall compressor for my bass and some plane tickets to Finland (I’ll explain that later); and it peaked again today, somewhat unexpectedly, with the purchase of a digital camera. To christen the camera, I narcissistically took a picture of myself in the reflective Apple logo of the above-mentioned iMac and submitted it to the Mirror Project.

Yes, I’m all awash with technology (and completely wrapped up in myself) these days.
