An Afternoon with Jack and Carly

So, this afternoon at work, they brought in all new printer/copiers for the office. For some reason, they decided that the middle of the day was the best time to do this. So, they took all of our computers off the network and left us with nothing to do while they installed the new equiptment.

So, I spent some quality time listening to a few CDs.

First up was "On and On", Jack Johnson. This is the third album by Mr. Johnson that I've bought in the last few months, and I believe the last one available to me other than the soundtracks for the movies he made.

I can't get over how fucking incredible his music is. All three of these CDs are some of the most listenable music I heard in a long time. My new favorite song, Cocoon, is just so great. I can't stop listening to this song.

The other album I spent some time with today (and the one I'm listening to right now) is The Best of Carly Simon. I just love her.

Got out of the office normal time and had to drive up to my parents house. They are in Wyoming for the next four days, so I had to go feed the dog and cats. While I was there, I pulled the laundry that was piled up on the piano bench and sat down and played for over an hour. It's probably been a year since I've been on a piano...I miss playing. I wish I had room for one in my apartment.

I felt really good while I was sitting there playing. But once I stopped playing I just started feeling wretched again. It was back and forth today. I was either in completely good spirits or just feeling terrible.

So, I'm going to spend a little time online tonight, and then I'm going to watch "To Kill a Mockingbird" and try to induce some crying. I need to get some of this emotion out of me...and I can't get rid of it by screaming. So, I'll try and force myself to cry.

Well, I'm out.
