So researching what types of piano music Lady Mary could conceivably have learned how to play has led me to reserving and checking-out piano music (that is quite possibly too difficult for me to play) from work. But I don't own a piano, so then it led to me researching digital pianos, which though less expensive than there acoustic counterparts, ( Read more... )

It's more than halfway through October and I realized I haven't posted at all. I started off trying to write about why I haven't been around, but that was boring. In a nutshell, I'm still looking for a job and a apartment and getting extremely frustrated about my lack of success ( Read more... )

I can't remember if I said this already, but I've started playing some music again! I haven't played much of anything since marching band ended... so about three years ( Read more... )

A music meme stolen from isiscaughey. I've done this one before, but it was several years ago, so it's all new again!

List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're not any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your live journal along with your seven ( Read more... )

Not that I probably won't cave in about a week anyway ( Read more... )

I took the day off from work today, but actually got up on time and managed to knock out three assignments in less than three hours, with significant breaks for Facebook and Autotune the News. Maybe I'll go do something novel now, like actually go to the gym.

My gift to you: the song stuck in my head. Happy Monday!

Someone (*cough*d4ni*cough*) sent me a message on Last.fm the other day, which reminded me of its existence and its OMG STATISTICS. I have sunk into an all new spiral of obsessing about what I'm listening to, and I've spent more time than I care to count over the last two days tidying up my metadata in iTunes. Because, you know, it's really important ( Read more... )

Today feels like the "old days"-that is, a time when I wasn't busy all the time with stupid grad school. I'm just chilling in my living room, listening to music on my laptop and reading, with diversions to throw a tennis ball around for the dog or to clean up my iTunes metadata ( Read more... )

• I haven't complained about school much recently, so I should do that. It's totally getting in the way! I'm now supervising three student assistants and a volunteer at work, which is complicated since I'm still part time.
