Digital medias
I cannot find my card reader and my mother’s isn’t working. So none of the photos I had planned to upload today.
Instead I will talk about music.
I hate the lack of a queuing feature in iTunes.
A comment on last.fm: I feel this weird compulsion to make my listening habits, I don’t know, not stupid sounding. I check out what people on my list are listening to. Ancarett has mostly the stuff I listened to with my parents as I grew up — some show tunes, say, or Peter Paul and Mary — stuff I don’t have now and wish I did. PJM listens to a lot of the folkier stuff that I also like but, again, don’t have much of, but mostly names I heard of or listened to, on and off, for years now. Scrivener[1] listens to the cool stuff that I feel like a total fraud listening to, which other friends introduced me to recently. (Wow, I think I just offended the other people there. Oh well. I actually do like all three sets of music, I’m just bad with descriptions.) I haven’t seen much from SB, and yami, probably just because of the times I’ve happened to look.
So far because I had about one day of listening to music in last week’s tracks, my music is fairly unrepresentative. Also because I’m sort of trying to avoid showing off my obsessional times, when I listen to the same song 27 times in a row. My obsessional times are most of the time, though.
[1] I added Ancarett without bothering to, you know, identify myself at first, though she figured out who it was. I have yet to identify myself to Scrivener. Hi!

Music your parents listened to? I officially feel old. But, then, let’s face it, I am. (And I listened to a lot of show tunes and PPM when I was younger — they’re comfortable songs to have playing even today.)

Yeah, I knew it was coming off badly. But I love show tunes. And I used to love PPM — probably would still listen if I had any. Those are the things we listened to on long car rides. And I used PPM in a few school things, I think.
