Update on “more music”: I’ve decided that I need to listen to everything on my iTunes at least once in the next little bit, so I’m trying to make my way through all 4 days worth of music (alphabetically from A-Z by artist of course)… currently, we are just finishing “Dido” and headed to “Dixie Chicks”… I wonder how long this will take me?

more music

I’m addicted to music. Specifically, I am addicted to new music. I can’t go past a music store without going in to see what is new, if there are any good deals, or looking at a cd I really want to get. The same thing at the library; I am always browsing the music section there, looking for new stuff. Most of the time, I like what I find. It is getting a bit absurd though. I have enough music uploaded on my computer to keep me going for 4 days straight… and that is just the suff on the computer. I’ve got at least that again on cds which I haven’t uploaded. I’m not sure when I think I am going to sit down for a week and do nothing but listen to music, but there it is. I’m addicted to music.

You’re it!

I am officially bored. If it was 2 months ago, I would have said I was procrastinating. However, there is no school right now (I have the diploma to prove it!) and I have nothing I am avoiding other than getting up and going to bed. Therefore, we’ll go with bored.
I got this from Shareen. You’re all tagged for either this one or this one.

1. What curse word do you use the most? mmm, likely crap, if a form of excrement is a curse word. The runner up (for all but Australians) would likely be damn.

Livejournal

Bowing to peer pressure, I’ve created for myself a Livejournal account. It looks kinda crappy at the moment because I’m still figuring out how to format it, but I might post on there now and again too. This, however, is still my true home. If you’re on Livejournal and want to add me as a friend, I’m gillrh (real original, I know) and my site is in the links to the side or here.
