awahlbom at 11:53pm on 30/05/2007You may have noticed that I haven't posted anything in a month or so. There's just been very little time for it.
Anyhoo, happened since the last posting:
I
My housewarming party was great fun. I think I had a total of 15 guests, the most I've ever had in my home. (Let's see now...![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
thette, kjn, hulda, uistic, sunjan, Justina, Mattias, Agne, Evelina, Ante, Åka, Rebecka, Johan L., Anna and Matilda.) Photos here.
II
Took Friday 18th off and went to Åcon. It is really worth a longer convention report, but that's for another day. Photos here.
III
Caught a cold, which I may have passed on todarnia (although there are other people in the country with the same virus, so she could have caught it from someone else). My tonsils have felt more or less tender and swollen for two weeks now, so I'm probably going to call the health care centre tomorrow and ask someone to have a look. Probably nothing serious, but best to check.
IV
Started reading Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 8. Good Whedon class, and counts as canon.
V
Hadkjn, thette and hulda over this Saturday to watch A Scanner Darkly (which everyone liked) and a couple of Season 3 Buffy episodes.
VI
Bought a hard drive DVD recorder the other day and started the process of transferring stuff from VHS tapes. So far I've done these:
VII
Worked too much as usual.

Bought a hard drive DVD recorder the other day and started the process of transferring stuff from VHS tapes. So far I've done these:
- à;GRUMH...: It's A Wonderful Wonderful World Tour 1989-90 Holiday Snapshots part 1 (three hours of backstage and tour bus clips; completely unwatchable unless you're a huge fan or a friend of the band, and hardly even then)
- Depeche Mode: Some Great Videos
- Depeche Mode: The World We Live In And Live In Hamburg
- Jean-Michel Jarre: The China Concerts
- Jean-Michel Jarre: Destination Docklands
- Jean-Michel Jarre: Images (a great actor he is not — see "Magnetic Fields 2")
- Jean-Michel Jarre: Rendez-Vous Houston
- Jean-Michel Jarre: Rendez-Vous Lyon
- Klinik: Live (from 1993, Marc Verhaeghen's first tour after Dirk Ivens left)
- Liaisons Dangereuses: Live at the Haçienda
- Gary Numan: Shadow Man (some of the videos, done on the cheap during his worst years, are truly awful)
- Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark: The Best of OMD
