I have such a love-hate relationship with Spotify. I love that they have such a load of music available for free, but I hate that it only works with the official client (which is CRAP) and I hate the ads (interrupting my Oceansize with Usher? Really?) and I hate that it won't work on my phone.

Same. I use it alot nowadays because of school and because my last.fm client doesn't work anymore. But a couple of days ago I noticed shuffle doesn't work, which is hugely gay.

I don't use spotify because I am morally superior.

How does it relate to moral superiority? (I spelt that word so wrong.) The artist gets paid every time you listen to thier tracks. Use Spotify enough, you'll give them more money than if you bought a CD or went to a concert.

The number of times I'd have to use Spotify for that approaches infinity.

I just use it to check out bands or listen to full albums in decent quality that I have no intentions to buy (for something different to my iTunes stuff). Of course, If I'm liking it enough, I'll add it to my albums to buy list... so, for what I use it for, and for free, I like Spotify very much. As a "full time" music player... nah.

All the time.

Probably not alone imagining that either.

Damn right she's not alone on this.

I'm tired of seeing Gaahl around in Bergen. He's always buying cases of wine. Grutle Kjellson is everywhere too but he's cool.

"Can you turn the bass down please?" - All I ever hear nowadays... even when its not loud. Damn floorboards acting as illusionary bass amplification to downstairs. I'm living with students god damnit! I thought all we ever wanted to do was party to loud music! ESPECIALLY in the summer with NO WORK TO DO.

Apparently students also come in "boring grumpy old fart" variety too...

Having some trouble dealing with some paranoia and jealousy.

My rational brain knows that these feelings are entirely erratic and nothing to pay any heed, but I'm having a hard time shaking sinking feelings.


Anyway, that's lame of me, time to rawk.

It happens to everyone sometime or another. It does suck though.

I smoked pot for the first time in about a year last night, and just like usual it made me slightly paranoid and overly analytical. Since I already get overly analytical all the time about my life (usually when I can't sleep) it draws me to conclusions that I can't exactly explain or justify but continue to stick with me, no matter how much I try to shake them. So yeah, no weed for Cody.

A lot of the trouble comes from my inability to reconcile the differences between my intellectual and emotional selves. My intellectual self knows that my problems are for the most part, self-created and highly irrational. I am a wonderful listener and a wonderful judge of character except for my own.

My emotional self makes rash, selfish decisions, and I often feel like while I can guide it, I cannot control my emotional self. My self-esteem which has always been shakey to moderate has a lot to do with this, but even now when I'm feeling pretty good, working two pretty neat jobs, and despite my tendency towards sadness and depression, I do carry myself with a strong compassionate tenderness that I'm very proud of.

Of course then the elevated self is trying to divorce itself from the notion of self Since it's all hippie like that.


It's just a mass of conflicting feelings that I can't quite put my finger on, and I just wish they wouldn't occur. I envy people who seem to be able to roll with the punches better than I can.


But yeah, I guess overall things are fine and even good, I just can't shake this uneasiness today.

^ Interesting. How do you try to control your emotional self?

Because I've always tried to rationalize my inner conflicts away. Recently my therapist told me that's not going to work.
