Necessities
things - television and a microwave oven!
After moving to my new flat two months ago, amongst other things I
have tv and microwave in my mind.
The first to pass the time and catch up on my fave shows which
includes documentaries, and the second, to heat up food since I
usually cook in bulk.
I thought about them for the first couple of weeks and the next thing
I knew is that it's been 2.5 months and that I've adapted.
I don't get to watch tv a lot to begin with due to other chores but
when I do I watch tv online through the BBC iPlayer or Rove online.
I've also started downloading video podcasts but funny enough I don't
watch them on my pod.
Food also started tasting better as now I heat them up on the stove
other directly or by steaming. They end up being hotter too unlike the
uneven heated food you get from micros.
So moving to London changed a couple of things (among many I bet).
What will be next? Let's see...since I don't have a tv, I don't have
any consoles either. No dvd player and surround sound system. I don't
have a coffee table. I don't have a car and haven't driven in four
months... No garden but I don't completely miss it.
Actually I haven't thought about any of them until just now.
There is one thing for sure I can do without and that's the Internet.

Alienware
first order of business for a digital child is to find a computer/
Internet .
Found a free one I'm the lobby so logged in and started typing my
email but like some kind of weird dream, the wrong words are appearing
on screen.
Look at the keyboard and the keys are shuffled all over the place.
