I gather this is a minority status here? (I see why full time day jobs blow!) Coming from 7 fine nomadic years frolicking in my little couch potato garden. Already this chit not working out! The downside is webernet restrictions. I can't get my e-diggler on but I can get on the strut & dermy because no one at work knows these sites so they can't bann what they don't knows. seriously. I might last 6 months if I'm lucky. maybe your day stories can help me make it through these long days. how many of you have ping pong tables at your work place? turntables? massage chairs? a gym? a sound room? piano room? I'm thinking of getting a UV sunlamp to aid my frozen spirits. february in the shy is much too sad for me. what r u looking (listening) to now? i need something to dream about now

I can pick you up by telling you that I am currently listening through a pile of the totality of Mike Oldfield's 45 output starting with the edit from Tubular Bells, including his sister's schitt (which I actually really really like).
I got them from a local charity shop for all of equivalent $3.
There's like 30 singles. All mint.
There's zero heat except for the disco track 'Guilty' which is the antithesis of a jazz legend's 'its the notes you don't play' philosophy. And is wonderful.
I seriously plan to list them as a lot on ebay and hope there are some raers in there, and create a piranha-fest bidding frenzy of Oldfield die-hards for one Sunday night in Spring.
But to sift through a man's career and listen to the way he had to embrace every lame 'sound' from early 70's through to now is kind of sad.
The mid 80's yacht rock stuff he made is dire.
The mid 70's twee stuff is endearing.
There's very little in the way of breaks or beats.
I hope this has cheered you up friend.
thank you. plaese to give me batches of clown
still don't know wtf you are talking about!
But it sounds good!
9-5 is good also.
At least it isn't 8-6
or 6-8 like some Goldman Sachs hotshot
all the money in the world and no time to spend it.
