Do any of you know if there's an easy way of searching for info in your old LJ posts? I want to find the posts where I wrote about "The History Game" - the game where I move chronologically through history books, trying to get to modern times.
I have a new bad idea game: I'm purchasing one album per week and listening to it non-stop, with the idea of then writing a little review for them. I suppose I want to get into the habit of reviewing music, thinking of albums as novels, feeling a little more what's been put into them. Mostly new albums such as: the latest from Camera Obscura, Noblesse Oblige,
Future Bible Heroes, Jon Hopkins and, this week, Austra. Looking forward to checking out the new ones from Editors and White Lies.
I tried listening to Taylor Swift's "Red" the other day in the bathtub, in
naturalbornkaos' homage, but the water went cold halfway through the album (It's got 22 songs or something - a proper double-LP).
I'm still taking
that Coursera course "The Fiction of Relationship" but have decided to give it up at the halfway point. I'll still get a Statement of Accomplishment, which is OK. (For completing the whole thing I think you get a SUPER Statement of Achievement.) I just don't think I could deal with reading the upcoming five novels until August... I want to enjoy the sunshine while it's still here in London!
The allergies are killing me.
