Endless Paradigm

Well, things aren't too bad at the moment. Here's why:

All of the stuff I've recently ordered from eBay has arrived, meaning I now have wired Internet access (rather than shitty wireless.) No more dropouts!

Had an awesome Barbecue last night. Wee all got thoroughly stuffed and drunk. Good fun.

Then wee stayed up till 3AM watching The Terminator.

No work today.

Got paid yesterday.

I'm off to a gig tonight. (6:30PM, Moloko Swansea. Be there!)

Found a £10 note in my coat pocket earlier.



Now for some not so good stuff:

I left my MP3 player outside in the rain last night, meaning it's now full of water. I've taken it apart and left it on the windowsill in the sun to dry it out.

I'm tired.

There are only 2 songs left on the album I'm currently listening to.



All in all life's pretty good over here in the life of me.

Yeah, MP3 player is now officially dead. Before taking it apart it all worked except for most of the buttons. After one take-apart I managed to get all but the Vol+ button to work. After 2 take-aparts the whole thing is dead. It lasted me a good 1 1/2 so it hasn;t done too bad considering the punishment it's gone through.

Anyway. To eBay!

i love finding notes out of nowhere, i make an event out of it and spend it ASAP.

I need all the moneys I can get at the moment. A new MP3 player must be purchased this week before going on holiday!

That's a point. Could anyone recommend me to a nice little MP3 player for around the £100 mark? It must have a nice screen (size doesn't really matter), good sound quality and volume, at least 16GB of storage (may fall to 8GB if I see something particularly good), AAC  playback would be a real plus (so I don't have to re-encode all my music), and it can't be an iPod.

I've spotted a few Sonys and Samsungs but so far nothing has really jumped out at me. The Samsung YP-Q1 would be perfect if it played AAC but sadly it doesn't.
