a bittersweet passage

i started this blog as something to "kill time" with, something to pass the long, lonely days spent here in my parent's basement while they went to work and my leg mended. it's been about four months. my leg is doing quite well, i can almost walk without a limp at all (considering i had 3 surgeries, 2 plates, 10 pins, and an external apparatus that went into my bone, i'd say it went well.) so now i am going back to my life (i hope) starting tomorrow. i will have a lot less time to kill, so this blog is going to slow down. i know i've been saying that for a while, but whatever. now it's true.

so, in parting with this chapter i am leaving you here with this: a new mix. it's a bittersweet one, again on the downer side. but, it's definitely a good one. get it if you like. i'd like you to.

as stated before, the blog is not dead. by no means will i stop doing this, it's just going to be a lot more sporadic and less regular. i've got about 40 or so albums coming your way over the next few weeks so keep your eyes peeled. after that, i am hoping to have regular computer access again (i'm getting my old one back! 100 gb of music and all my cds ripped to it! woo!) so posting will resume on a somewhat regular pace, but when that will be i am not sure.

to all of you: thanks for reading and continuing to read. this blog helped me out during some hard times, believe it or not. so, thanks for checking me out. keep on keeping on.
