places I never thought I'd be, part 26

[flea]

In the living room at 3:30 am, in my new pink big chair, nursing a cranky sick with a head cold baby back to sleep while listening to Dvorak's New World Symphony (chosen because I thought classical music might be soothing, and it was all I could find in the dark).

Things learned: Big pink chair is good for nursing - the arms are at a good height for support. I should listen to more classical music - in past places I've lived the NPR station is classical most of the day, so we'd just leave it on and get a dose. Here it's talk, and we leave it on anyway and I get annoyed. I am sure there is an all-classical channel on the dial, but I'd have to FIND it and CHANGE the CHANNEL all the time. Life is SO HARD.

Someday, I will be uncheap enough to buy radios that have digital settings, and pre-set buttons. Then, when I want different stations, no fiddling with knobs and static. Right now, the kitchen radio is on the sports tuner for baseball, while NPR still reigns on my bedroom radio.

My car has presets, and they are fab; surely someday this innovation will make it inside the house.
