I just woke up from the coma. I’m exhausted and I’m wondering why drugs are illegal. Hard work and sleep deprivation are perfectly legal and have the same effect on my brain… Does “tired” have a color or a taste?
So now that I’m finally up, it’s time to start thinking about packing up my bag and heading back to work. I was hoping Hurricane Ike would stir up enough concern that I’d get to stay home a couple of days, no such luck. Considering how the storm looked early in the week, it’s probably a good thing it didn’t make that direct hit…
Getting caught up in my podcasts and iTunes and music in general. I just got the new Metallica album. Well, it took them 20 years but they finally put something out I’ll buy. I haven’t had the chance to listen to it in depth yet but on the first listen it sounds like something I’ll probably pick up. 1988 was the last time I bought their CD. Everything else that came after that sucked so badly that I just couldn’t bring myself to pay for it. In fact, if it weren’t for Fred, I wouldn’t even have it in my collection. It was all shit! And maybe this new one is shit too, but it sounds like it has potential. Definitely not as good as “Master of Puppets” but then again, what is?
And I’ll leave you with this little nugget. Maybe something you already know, I didn’t know this until last week. You know that psychedelic 60′s song “I Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)”? They used it in “The Big Lebowski”. Well it was done by a band called The First Edition. Their lead singer? Kenny Rogers. Yeah, go back and listen to it, it’ll mess you all up.
