Miles Davis, the Cuisinart and other Hi-Fi Horrors

A real-time play by play of an album side.

Our family room – where the hi-fi is set up – is one contiguous space with the kitchen. I am, at the moment, listening to a Miles Davis LP. Just for fun I thought I'd list the non-musical interludes that have occurred in the last ten minutes since the needle hit the groove:

1)Said Cuisinart making short work of three different types of vegetables.
2)A reminder that there are some oranges in the fridge
3)Spoon banging on outside of glass bowl.
4)Admonishment of the hound for trying to sneak down the basement steps (photo of hound on "system" page)
5)More spoon banging
6)Fridge door opening and closing and opening and closing and...
7)A query about our supply of Parmesan cheese.
8)Dog lapping watter.

All this within one side of an LP. I hope side two is better.
