Dumb Ba Dee Dumb Dumb
Honestly, I had the title already written before knowing what I was going to write, so I’ll talk about Cluster.
Definitely crazy. I have my central ideas already down, and I’m hoping to flesh out a full story this weekend, during some (in my point of view) well-deserved downtime, despite the fairly low-velocity nature of my studies as of recently.
I have been caught a few times needing to take care of a week’s worth of work in a day or two. While this has obvious downstream benefits, I think it erodes the burnout resistance a bit.
In fact, being able to get through a week’s worth of work in a day is a bit suggestive of the engagement some of these duties require.
It’s a little frustrating. BNL comes to mind: “I wish I could step from this scaffold, onto soft green pastures, shopping malls, …” I guess that sounds pretty stupid if you haven’t heard the song. Whatever.
To affirm Josh’s Pandora comment, it does feel a little ADD with regards to maintaining a genre match. I had some nice Zeppelin/Scorpions/Black Sabbath/etc. stuff going. It started playing emo shortly thereafter, and continued on that way consistently.
I think that their licensing is contingent upon selling fairly new artists to music enthusiasts, so such is life.
