This is something I do on a frequent basis, and get made fun of for doing so.

Well, I do tend to listen to Undying over and over, but mainly because I like Yogi’s drum parts in it.

I’m in there with the obsession over my iTunes library.
I plan to clean up mine as well.
Along with the iPod.
Dorks unite.
Oh and yeah….playing with my Wii and drinking the free Patron I got here at the agency.
Good times.

You know what, if you made the right angry face and grew a goatee, you could definitely masquerade as a member of Demon Hunter :)
Horrible tense usage in that past sentence aside, thsi holiday season I plan to do the following:
- Actually motivating outside of jobland and establishing a home workflow in order to complete some fun freelance stuff.
- Drive to Florida and back on two consecutive weekends,
- while listening to that free John Hodgman book.
- Enjoying time with friends & family in the joyous celebration of the season.
- Packing the list of 3262327828 items my wife just emailed me and asked me to take care of since we’re leaving today and I’m the one that has today off.

- Attending a high-society Texas wedding on a ranch in Hunt, Texas.

No, I just tend to import/upload a ton of music at a time, so it’s always a chore when it happens.
