Music!

Good thing about so few people being in the office: I can get away with listening to 6Music (only one side of the headphones, so I don't miss the phone, but that's still good). It cheers me up lots. I may try this next year anyway - after all, this room is the only one where people don't regularly have the radio on anyway (7 people in here, unlikely to be able to agree on music; plus we're all on the phone half the time).

Also, it is generally good to have less *noise* in here. I've been able to catch up on lots of things.

Shiny! I suspect the Sennheisers would still block out too much of what's going on in the office, though, for me. Much as I would *like* to have the racket blocked out, it's the sort of environment where it's useful, & more or less required, to have half an ear open for conversations where my input might be required. I suspect the boss would not like me *looking* like I was hiding under headphones, either. The ones I've got today are fairly low-quality - standard in-ear personal stereo type ones (one up from the ones you get for free with stereos). Doing the trick, though.

I do like the look of the Etymotics :-)

Hurrah, they're playing the Pet Shop Boys ("You Are Always On My Mind", or whatever it's called).
