Highway of Endless Dreams

I'm going through and listening to the albums that came out in 2008 that I just couldn't put down, and trying to figure out how I would rate them for end of year list. It's going pretty good I have 19 albums on here I'm going to do a top ten and top 5 honorable mentions so it's more like a top 15 really.

Anyways it's supposed to snow tonight maybe I dunno. I hope it doesn't I have work in the AM and last time it snowed bad I fucked up the alignment on my car by smashing into a curb, wasn't fun.

I had a dream the other night I moved back to West Pittston. If I wasn't with Nicci I would probably try to live there now. Pennsylvania is so much cheaper. I'd like to live in one of the giant old houses on Luzerne Ave or Philadelphia Ave, or down by the elementree school.

sleeping forever.

So I came home after work with all intentions of getting my hard drive then going over brittens, Well I got home around 415pm or so next thing I know it's 11:00pm. I stayed up for like 2 more hours then it was 11:00am. I feel great.

worst luck ever.

Holy shit! Out of nowhere today I get an error message that says disk removal, and I think to myself that's odd my hard drive is still plugged in. So turns out I needed to reformat my drive and it erased everything on it! so all that work i put in from A to Cave is all gone.

I don't know why I didnt think of this sooner but I'm taking my external hard drive over to Britten's with a print out of my record nerd list and just dragging and dropping files of albums he has that I also have. Everything else I'll upload from home. This is going to save so much more time, I'm such an idiot.

Dark Knight comes out at Midnight!!!!!!!

the wind

It's very windy today. When the wind blows between the houses it sounds like there is a jack hammer right outside my bedroom window.

Last night we got our first snow fall that amounted to something. It wasn't much only enough to cover the grass. The sun came out and melted it all so it is gone.

HOLY GRAIL OF YOUTH!

holy grail

I saw my parents tonight, and my mother had this box!!!!

It might not mean much to anyone, but contained in this box is anywhere from 75 to 100 cassette tapes that feature tape recorder and 4 track recordings that I did between the ages of 12 and 18! Yeah it doesn't look like that many but it is deep and long, much like your anal cavity.

I'm so excited to dust off the 4 track and run all of these into pro tools, no matter how bad some of these are I will mix down everything!

fall is almost over so i'll catch no one up to speed.

I read back on the last few posts I made over two months ago, and my lazy ass hasn't gotten much further on the whole uploading my entire CD collection thing. I finished uploading all of B a few days ago and started on maybe two tops of my C collection, now today I resume, because honestly I'm sick of listening to what I have from A to B.

According to my iTunes A - B contains 336 Albums and takes up 13.95G of memory on my hard drive.

Some other stuff happened besides uploading CDs. Nicci and I drove to Orlando for Halloween, the gases prices started going down extremely low a week or two before we left which made it alittle easier on my wallet. The cheapest we saw it while driving was $2.05 near Savannah. It was a pretty relaxing vacation we did a park or two, and seriously spent alot of time chilling at Nicky's on her coach watching TV.

Although I've been pretty much stressing about the election for the last year and a half, I spent most of October going insane, while in Florida there were was McCain/Palin everywhere I looked. I hadn't really been out of the area much so I couldn't really gauge how the rest of the country was feeling and when I saw all that in Florida I became extremely worried to the point I was giving myself panic attacks all the way up to the night of the election. (wow what a run-on sentence.)

So I'm pretty excited about Obama I hope he can pull off some of the things he has promised to change. It's funny because I totally called the fact that he was going to offer Hilliary the Secretary of State position. I bet that was the plan all along.

Saw Boris again in November, and I'm definitely missing them tonight because I am extremely broke. I swore I would do my christmas shopping early this year but I've been scrambling to get it done over the last few weeks. With the economy sucking so bad I haven't worked any overtime this year, like I had the last 3 years. So I've put up some gear that has been kinda wasting space up on ebay, once it sells I can catch up on some bills.

That is all for now I'm putting together my end of the year favorite albums list. So look for that soon.
