WHERE MUSIC LISTENS TO YOU

Oh, you're in trouble now missy

Posted over 2 years ago
The scene: my basement office. I had spent the entire morning and afternoon doing what I do: taking numerous conference calls and working like a madman in order to finish the two weeks' worth of work into this week, so I can leave for vacation without any remaining work hanging over my head. I was stressed out as much as I ever get. I didn't know it at the time, but my defenses were lower than they should be.The bait: a status message, something about needing flowers. Now I should have known better, as I had "+already provided flowers.+":http://whosyrdad.multiply.com/music/item/2028 And yet, I had to pop in, because I have that much of a saving-people complex.Extenuating circumstances: Pekka had me already drinking deeply from his recent musical discovery, pet band and DC noise-pop artisans "+Ceremony+":http://mog.com/1234chainsaw/blog_post/124255. My brain was already melting from the distorted guitars and drum machines in the red.The nail in the coffin: trying to finish up our mix of songs in the key of L. She's going Ginsu slashy-slashy over her list as I'm agonizing over my choices, while trying my hardest not to fall off my chair from bopping about.The result: At least one full hour of non-stop ecstatic (seated) dancing, "+a new playlist+":http://roguemog3.multiply.com/music/item/5990/love_will_tear_us_apart_again_and_again_and_again_the_letter_l_mix that should be up elsewhere later tonight, and a pronounced music-induced euphoria. I felt rejuvenated and refreshed, so much so that I almost missed an important appointment that day.The charge: what else? Contributing To The Music-Drunkenness Of A MOGgerOh, and here's the last song I dropped from my part of the L playlist:

  6. Dale says That mix I spoke about "+is now up and available to all.+":http://mog501.multiply.com/music/item/51 Point of order: I'm not leaving until Monday, though I do appreciate the well wishes. We're going to meet one of Melissa's online friends in Illinois, then off to see our RL friends in Missouri. It's gonna be great, mostly b/c out RL friends haven't seen me since last Thanksgiving, when I was at my heaviest. That'll be a shock. :)
