Word!
The word of the week is miscegenation... which I pronounce dubiously and learn that its meaning doesn't gel with how it looks
And another one like t'other one! It's hegemony. At least I knew what this one meant, even if I have to think twice before I say it
On my bedside table

Buzzed and Bugged
Bugged: okay, I bugged myself when I lost things and needed help to find them
Buzzed: the roads that take us through Victoria and New South Wales
Bugged: the inaccessibility of public transport that should compete with the roads

Been too busy to be wantin' stuff ... but ...
A recap: I want that USB audio interface for the laptop!
And a high quality lavalier microphone... but it should be unidirectional too
I need some way to want less stuff ... but still do good things
