Sometimes it’s hard for me to remember that most people aren’t accustomed to sound effects in everyday conversation…

except for a midday coffee date, i’ve been hiding in the attic all day writing.
i’ve only lived in this house a week. it’s a row home. was talking to a neighbor who grew up here. she told me her parents were best friends with the old owners. my bedroom used to be his studio. it’s wonderful for the creative process, a hermit’s wet dream. other than work and some other socializing, i rarely leave.
i’m dumbfounded by the focus with writing though. i think it’s a combo of the fact that i can concentrate up here, and that i detest this character.the only reason i haven’t killed her off is so i can continue destroying her. when i love my characters, i’m miserable.
for sometime now, i’ve wanted to download language tapes. i haven’t really had the time or desire, but i feel like i’m wasting my brain listening to music at work. i was consideringbookson tape, and all. but i really like books: the cover design, inner typography, the smell, and basically holdingit and dog-earring the shit out of it.
so my current goal while designing the paper at night is to brush up on spanish and french. i think i will carry this over during my holiday travel.
by the new year, i want to start learning a brand new language. although italian is tempting, i don’t plan on sticking with romance languages. i’m thinking either japanese, mandarin, german, russian or arabic. not sure which one(s) i’ll decide on.
i keep forgetting to checkback after 45 seconds, or whatever it is, when i download from rapidshare. i’m not going to even say how long it took me the most recent CD. it’s just that bad.
i keep thinking i should just get a subscription because i’ve got a few hundred links in a notepad document. my payal account is defuct. when i go to set up a new one, i space-out somewhere on the interon. next thing i know i don’t a) get a rapidshare account and b)didn’t even downlad the intial link. meh…
either way, i replaced a few CDs that can only be used as coasters now.
