Thought Sausage

Those of you who are regular readers know that I go through serious phases of music. I'm just getting over a big Rush obsession where everything from Moving Pictures to Roll the Bones was solid gold. It appears the next "dig deep into the archives" obsession seems to be Drive by Truckers. I've got some old CD's of theirs from waaaaaaaaaaaaay back in the day when I saw 'em in Iowa City. But I just cleaned out itunes supply of 'em. For those who are unfamiliar, My Sweet Annette is a free download if ya wanna hear some kickass southern rock goodness. Said itunes buy-up presents a new problem. I think I just downloaded more songs than my ipod is currently capable of holding. So that means some shitty music I never listen to will need to give itself to the cause. I have a shitpile of 80's hip hop that I don't believe I've ever listened to. That selection process is gonna be somewhat painful because it's entirely possible I'll go through an old skool 80's hip hop thing. I'm already finding PM Dawn's Reality Used to Be a Friend of Mine seeping into my work playlists. And I'll always have a place in my heart for everything Public Enemy.

Or I may just need to procure a beefier ipod....

I seem to have developed a serious problem of drinking too much coffee @ work. Then I get home and have a serious withdrawl/comedown that wipes me right out. This is a problem cos I couldn't scrape myself off the bed to get to swimming tonight. SONOFABITCH! In addition, I'm starting to teach SEO classes. In my teaching mode, I tend to prepare for a class by amping up on caffiene and turning into a retardedly hyper jackass then praying the session doesn't go off the rails. Hey, it's probably what worked for Jaime Escalante right?

UPDATE: Just piled all the new DBT songs into the ipod and it took it like a champ. Packed to the gills of course, but no deletion required yet. Fuckin disc space.
