I can’t believe how expensive computer books are these days.

I finally got out of the house and into town to get a book on C++ and while I was at it, picked up one on OpenGL programming – 800 Swedish Kronor Each! Luckily my job comes with an “education fund” so I was able to reclaim the cost using that but man 1600 SEK on books.

Not bad books though, I’m learning a lot and I’ve suddenly realised again how crap I was as matrix mathematics at school. Mrs. Leach will never forgive me. How did I pass GCSE math?

On a more interesting note, I tried to pick up a copy of the Joséz Gonzaléz‘s “Crosses EP” today to discover that all the large record stores in Stockholm have sold out. Makes me feel good to know a talent such as Joséz was that popular.

My friend Vanessa got pretty excited at the news he was playing two gigs in Gothenburg in September (hint hun – invite me down, we’ll go together) but he’s also playing in Stockholm at the Riddarholmsfestivalen. Whats bugging me is I can’t find any info about the festival so I can go see him. The Internet is so shit sometimes.

Oh, “Ape” from my office came over tonight. Haven’t seen him for months. Greek guys are funny.
