I was about to use this bloggy opportunity to fill out (yet) another survey, but then I thought, why? Why spend this precious moment sharing yet more of the same tosh I've been spitting out to you since I first came on this thing back in Spring (shucks, it's our 6 month anniversary!) Not that I discount surveys...god knows how addicted I am to reading them, filling them out, and coming up with ones of my own. I simply want to provide you, my avid subscribers, with a little bit more to chew on. Or, at the very least, something with a little extra icing/whipped cream.
That said, I just have one small thought (wow, I'm anti-climactic). I'm currently in the midst of discovering a bunch of great music from fantastic artists, which obviously, are happily demanding much of my musical attention. There is (almost) nothing better than falling in love with a song and having a moment with it upon each listen. It's a moment, very similar to the meaningful and passionate early stages in a relationship, that you wish would last forever. But it doesn't, in either cases. So you try to counteract this kismet by stopping (or at least decreasing) your interaction with a song. I do this all the time with songs that strike a resonant chord with me -- as soon as I realize I'm giving them too much love, I try to back off, just so the feeling could last. It doesn't work though...inevitably, I can't not tune in for too long, and with time, feelings become neutralized and the songs, while still great, fail to get me going as they once did.
Yes, I am still talking about music here. Do you know what I'm saying though?
PS: Oh Dan Bejar, keep composing...
