Digicam
I finally went and bought it: the
Sony DCR-DVD405 3MP DVD Handycam Camcorder! It's got 2x optical zoom so maybe I
could give up having a nicer larger camera. It has b&w, movie and sound
recording, manual modes, too much to describe.Posted by fouad @ 12:29 PM [link] [0 comments]
Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals
This morning I got 'Lifeline', Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals's new album.
If you are into pop this CD is something for you. I never bought any Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals albums before because it didn't interest me. It's strange that I didn't dig the music earlier.

Went to HEB for groceries. I am always after a a housewife ordering 10
different meats in the deli line. I was in line and all of a sudden I heard somebody say "Hi fouad!" It was soufiane.

Empty
Lately soufiane asked me if there was something wrong with me, I noticed
soufiane was angry though. I said I was sorry and that I need to remember this,
like soufiane told me. I was a bit rude. I'm always wrong.
This wasn't worth it. Soufiane and I had an argument and I was sorry I said it.
soufiane says my failure and melancholy are unnecessary.

Shopping
This week we decided to go into town to do some shopping. I bought some really
baggy jeans from Alpana Bawa. I usually don't spend a lot of money on clothes because I think tomorrow I'm actually going to go and buy something as well. Oh boy, whenever I get bored, I have to go shopping! Every time I get paid I give a nice chunk of my paycheck to the good ol people over at Alpana Bawa.

I want to buy a new unit and I am considering the
SanDisk SDSDH-1024-901 1 GB Ultra II Secure Digital Memory Card. These
things are so cool. Well, what do you think?

Still running through molasses
I talked to mo for one hour. I can free my spirit so my well has been drying up
for a while now. I don't know if mo was upset and I hate mo's attitude. I feel absurd. I have run into another one of those dead ends.

Italian food
Yesterday's lunch was with hakan at an Italian restaurant called Piranchero. A
colleague recommended it to me. We had the actually very good prosciutto. Piranchero is often compared to Marpoli since both offer similar Italian menus, but I think Piranchero wins easily
