well, i didn't get much listening done this week, but my mind was elsewhere, so that's ok; i got plenty of thinking done, and feel nicely rebooted. that's the real purpose, that reboot.

the weather was unseasonably nice here this week, and that helped.

i'm going to push my monthly cleaning forward a little this month and do it tomorrow. i plan to hit a math rock band called noxious foxes on monday. i'll also need to make some calls on thursday. but, i'm transferring into a new normal this week and should be back and focused at some point during it.

you can imagine that all this bullshit with the gear has been a force towards apathy. it's just a process of seriously convincing myself it's good now and plowing on with it.
