Sitting in main draft. which will not change until they've finished the other end of the office. FREEZING.

Playing with last.fm, since though I can access iplayer at new office, it's stuck on 'connecting'. Which will be an utter arse when i want to re-listen to radio 4. Fortunately, in a lull period when it comes to Just a Minute and the News Quiz. ...Though for the other users of last.fm, does it regularly do the thing where you pick an artist, pick _insert artist here_ radio, but it takes a good 10-12 songs for it to get to a track by that artist? Oh, and the bass appears to be missing.

Still no work email - personal, yes, work, no. Customer services rang up to ask what our new one was and I informed them we didn't have it yet. They asked if we could tell them when we do. I think we're not going to tell them that we have it until doomsday...

Not sure I like this chair. shoulders aching a bit.

Watched finale of BSG. which comes under 'uh. wha? um. uh. gah! But I had friends on that basestar!' Good, equal amounts of no fucking idea *what* happened there, tied up everything, nice job on using weird-arse flashbacks from much earlier in series, and oh, coda, nice job on freaking us out. Roll on Caprica.

Random arse survey : tell me your current mobile ringtone. No matter how embarassing. Mine's the Farscape S2 theme.

My random-non-assigned-ringtones-already ringtone is ACDC's Back in Black.

BTW, you're SGA main theme :D

"Engel" by Rammstein. Taken from the single, not the album.

Main ringtone is..."Born To Run", I think? It's almost always on vibrate. It's that or "Radio Nowhere".

A sample of some Spanish church bells; they're a bit higher-pitched and faster than I was looking for, but decently doom-laden church bell samples are in surprisingly short supply.

It's been the Buffy theme ever since the days when I had to program it myself as a series of beeps.

Indeed. A friend of mine spent a lot of effort, and asked everyone he knew for help, to get just such a thing for a Doom Metal album, back in, ooh, 1995? 1996?

I finally got hold of a copy of a sound effect CD from the Army edicational support unit, and after listening through 101 bells ringing weäd found two he could mix together for the right sound.

Think it's currently Mama by My Chem but it's always on silent, what with working in a library and all.

When not on silent, my phone rings. Like a phone.

Standard Nokia ring I'm afraid ... should really change it as I work at Nokia and so everyone's phones start that way!

No bass on last.fm ... last time I had that, it turned out my headphones/speakers weren't plugged in all the way.
