The intro to my blog says that I am currently sorting through my huge collection of music.. well, it's not exactly true.
Work, volunteer work, house jobs and simply life are holding it up a little. I use to be a complete workaholic but turning a certain milestone in my birthdays stopped all that, the constant tiredness and the inability to function as a freindly, normal human being AND not giving enough time to my girlfriend of 15 years made me realise that a major life change had to occur and it has or will be at the end of next year. I have given in my notice and will be working freelance next year. Less money but more free time, the latter being my major goal at the moment.
So I am not working my way to digitalising my vinyl collection, putting the one track I may have bought a whole CD for onto my ipod or compiling my music database, but I will be next year.
It's frustrating but I know I will get there eventually, something I didn't feel at the beginning of the year when I hadn't taken my major decision and could see me being too old to even read the writing on CD cases before I started work on anything.
But I am going to continue to blog as I have really enjoyed it so far and it's just brill to get comments and I have had a few suggestions on what to listen to as well.
I love reading other blogs also.
Invisable friends.
Time is still being taken away from me regarding my itunes problem, think I have found the cause so it's home from work then on the computer writing more postings to the Apple forum in an effort to get it sorted.
Weather in the Midlands was fantatsic till about 4ish yesterday so we went to Burton Dassett hills and flew the re-stringed Skymaster and my sisters Twister kites. Great, great fun, the whistling through the strings is both eerie and exciting. Wind was moderate between 12 and 14mph but it was strong enough to snap 2 winders!
Have to fit fun into the timetable as well!
Heard the new Kate Bush single on R2 [you know, the station which gets exclusive rights to new singles. Plays then to death so that by the time the single is avaialble, you are sick of hearing it!] King of the Mountain. It hasn't got a WOW factor but it is curious, enigmatic and pure Bush. I love it and am eagerly awaiting the CD in November.
Check out Code 46 on DVD, it's one that got passed by too quickly and I have a hunch will become a classic.
To everyone who may have the Monday Blues, time rolls quickly so pretend it's Friday and it soon will be but make sure you fill the in between time with little things which make you smile.
