This is a pause becuase I am not feeling the work right now. I was typing, and planning, and ripping CDs, and running the program and getting a bug and Aah! It was too much. I need a larger monitor. Or! I can update. Not that I have much to say but
Ah! R's play in class. It was the play I wanted to write. I'm not saying it was perfect, and it drew to my mind fairly strongly from bobrauchenbergamerica, but ah! It was the same broad format as I tried to do & it achieved the goal with more grace than I could. I am utterly envious. (Indeed, I feel as if everyone's final work has outclassed mine in some way. But that is me.)
I have an obscene number of CDs checked out from the library right now. Over the past two (2) days I have checked out:
Beastie Boys - Paul's Boutique
Built To Spill - There's Nothing Wrong With Love
Fountains Of Wayne - Welcome Interstate Managers
Guns 'N Roses - Appetite For Destruction
The Orb - The Orb's Journeys Beyond The Ultraworld
Pavement - Slanted and Enchanted
Radiohead - OK Computer
The Replacements - Let It Be
Sleater-Kinney - Dig Me Out
Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream
Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation
Stereolab - Emperor Tomato Ketchup
Tortoise - Millions Now Living Will Never Die
Oh, the excess
I returned the CD by the Orb, and I'm done with the Built To Spill and Tortoise (& I know I no longer want to buy stuff by Tortoise, The Orb, or that particular Built To Spill), but sampling takes time and gives one an odd feeling of too much music too quickly. Frenzies are bad things.
There were plans to write a monologue or something this afternoon, but also no time. So it goes. Nice and sunny for Frist fest, sleep from 7 - 10, Aqua Teen at midnight, and that brings us to now, when I am minorly hungry. To horse! To work! Etc.
