*grossout alert*

i just found a pimple - well okay a pustule to be precise - in both my ear canals... somewhere nearer e outside world (as opposed to being nearer to e big empty space inside my head). which happens to be right where my earphones go in.. wait that din come out quite right. hm. okay, its just where e earphones can reach.. hmm no. well u get e idea!

e point being that 1) my music means that much to me and 2) i havent used my earphones in ages, ever since i planted e speakers next to my desk. therefore my earphones are in serious need of cleaning/sterilizing, with an alcohol swab.. and my ears are now bleeding (ho ho i guess that puts me up in e ranks of e true music fanatics.. maybe even musicians! haha) and earphones are a strict no-no for at least e next coupla days. how am i EVER gonna survive in poly without earphones?? =|

realised that music is my security blanket. i take comfort knowing that my taste is different, unique, and that nobody probably has a clue wat im listening to. at e same time, because e music is familiar to me - as in when im listening when out - its something i can relate to even when e surroundings and people arent. okay i guess this isnt coming out as deep or philosophical as i intended it to be... ha! will revisit this topic in a later post. [note i din say when e post wd b coming..]

another achievement: finally got round to using e optical-out port of my SB extigy, recording stuff onto MD. digital/optical input's so much more efficient! wish i had started this earlier..and cos e extigy has so many outputs i can monitor watevers going onto e MD without having to plug in earphones or basically any form of output device onto e MD itself. hmmmmm!
