it's a convoluted mess
Minnesota Weather Update: It snowed. Two days in a row. We got about half a foot of snow, which is way more than the rest of this winter combined. Will we get more? It’s only the end of March, so we very well could. I’ve been digging around in my iTunes library because I still have a couple thousand files that have fucking DRM protection on them. Remember when songs you bought off iTunes were… Keep reading…Against the glass…
After the way 2022 ended and 2023 began as far as my music habits, I wasn’t sure what this year’s stats were going to look like. Aside from an excessive amount of plays by The Killers.

But now I can fill up another page with things I thought I was going to write about last time. … I was looking at the calendar, wondering why the 13th was standing out as… Keep reading…Just setting a trap…
We’re heading into yet another blizzard up in here. Because Minnesota. Time to see how much I listened to the same music on repeat for another year… For the first time in a few years, the total play count dropped compared to last year. November and December saw a severe drop off in listening, which impacted things quite a bit. Based on the monthly numbers for the rest of the year, I think the total… Keep reading…A Year in Review…2022…the Music…
