My house got broken into last week, and then we had a rock thrown through a window a few days later (possibly related). So I had to deal with a bunch of stuff last week, and am still dealing with stuff today, and I need to catch up at work, yada yada yada....
All of which is to say the post I wanted to write about TLR's being involved in itching sensation (me? neuroscience?), might have to be postponed until tomorrow. In the mean-time, I hope you enjoy this song I've been listening to a lot recently.
What sort of music do you listen to to get through stressful/eventful times?

As threatened a little while ago, this is the first of ten hopefully weekly posts looking back at the ten years this blog has been in operation. This one covers the period from the very first post on June 22, 2002 to June 21, 2003.
When I started doing this look back, I was more than a little…
The World's Fair has a post up asking the ScienceBloggers the following question:
If you make a music mix that is a reflection of your informative years, what would those dozen or so songs be, and maybe more interesting, why? You don't have to be proud of the song choices - they're not necessarily…
I've been thinking off and on all day about the Jon Sobel post I mentioned in the previous post. I think he's got a point, but something about it strikes me as slightly off. To get this out of my system, I'm going to babble about it a bit here, and see if anything coherent emerges.
Sobel's jumping-…
Sorry for the slow posting this week, but work has been a bit intense, and I've also had some
family matters to take care of, which have left me with very little blogging time. Hopefully things will
be a bit less insane next week. In the meantime, here's a random bunch of weird music I've been…
That sounds really awful with your house - I hope you manage to get things sorted soon.
In terms of music - when I'm feeling really stressy I usually go for proper old-school metal and hard rock. Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath usually do it. Listening to Black Sabbath playing "iron man" a few times is nicely cathartic - and also for a brief period of time kills my hearing ability, so I can't hear anything else to upset me :)
Sorry about your house. How close are you to Montreal? I noticed Dennis M'abuse posting on your other article.
Your SITN link needs to be updated to include the "HTTP://" or something, because it's defaulting to a scienceblogs URL.
Thanks - fixed.
We're about 6 hours from Montreal. I haven't been up to Canada since I was like 7 years old, but I should make a point of getting up there some time soon.
This is disturbing. You are "stressy"? I would think so. Is this being investigated? Are you on someone's `1et's get that guy and his microbes' list?
It's my first time reading your blog, and maybe none of my business, but you brought it up.
