My new CD player arrived. It's my Christmas present to myself. The old one is a tinny portable that was WolFish's for who knows how long before I started using it. It was starting to skip on just about anything that got put into it.

I am not the most sophisticated listener but I am happy to be hearing a depth of sound in CD's I've bought recently that I never heard with the old player.

My CD players tend to last about 2 years.  I'm just happy that they still make them and yes, the sound does seem to get better as I buy the new ones.

I think this one was a rare find... I really wanted a multi disc player so I could easily switch between kid music and my music, and it has 5 trays for around $200 (used). It's a bit slow and loud about cd switching but I'm happy with it.
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

I've almost completely moved my listening to lossless files on media servers.

Car Impound Auction!!

Crush boi came away with a Ford Festiva with no clutch (it started though) and a Suzuki Ignis (wouldn't start).
Some more lawn ornaments to add to his strong collection of lawn ornaments :P

I found the Camry and the Barina there very tempting but I didn't bid. The Camry had all flight training manuals in the boot!

Flu symptoms are getting less.

This is a weird one. Not congested, no sore throat, but all the other flu stuff is there. Including knowing where all my muscles are located.  :P

Ciara still blows merrily around the house, way calmer than yesterday, but I do like her sound.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

I hope you're turning the proverbial corner

Today I don't have to go anywhere and I'm happy about it as tomorrow I'm combining two errands so today I can have the day off.

I watched Nintendo's Live Stream of the new Animal Crossing game that they're releasing March 20th. I'm a sucker for that game and I'm excited about the new stuff

Oh hell, I wasted so many hours playing that one. Love it.

Ha! You have no idea how much joy that brings me because I never would have figured you to be someone who had played the game and I have no idea why I think that.  :laugh:

I find picking the weeds extremely relaxing.  :laugh:

The new one they're bringing out for the switch looks like a lot of fun. I do admit that since the theme is to start from scratch on your own tropical island, I got a kick out of the fact that Nintendo did their live stream in the form of a travel brochure.

Found a version of a movie soundtrack I didn't know existed. I can't wait until it arrives.

Close Encounters of the Third Kind, one of my all-time favourite movies and movie soundtracks. This particular version is completely remastered and includes a lot of stuff not in any previous release. Woot.

Awesome. One of my favourite movies/soundtracks of all time is Pump Up The Volume. I looooove Leonard Cohen's Everybody Knows
