Day two of the binder project was productive, but before I get to that, I should mention the other cool things that happened today at work.
1) I had a regular customer come in and drop off his copy of the new Pearl Jam documentary "just in case I wanted to watch it." Seriously, how awesome is that? I'll still buy it eventually, but it's pretty cool that I get to check it out. It's only the first disc, so I won't get to check out whatever the special features are, but hey, I can't complain when I get to borrow it, now can I?
2) I talked to G. at work about my brother's classical music addiction as it relates to Christmas presents. Got some pretty sweet ideas from her, too. That takes a bit of the pressure off for that one, and has the added bonus of kicking off my holiday shopping.
The cool part about the second day of the binder thing is this: I've got the absolute bare-bones, this is what I have, part out of the way.
And so today I started the exciting part: the "going through everything and adding it in as I see fit" part. For months now, there have been various piles of music-related magazines, articles, etc. scattered in piles throughout my apartment. Part of this is because I knew that, at some point, I'd incorporate them into the binder. The other part of it is that, until I cleaned off the kitchen table and got serious about this, I've really had nowhere to spread this whole project out. What my place really needs (but likely has no space for), is a table of some sort that I can use for organizing and utilizing music stuff.
As for what's going into the binder, the sorting process is still ongoing tonight, but I knew if I didn't write about it at the moment, that I'd get too involved and miss the deadline. That said, I'll be more able to comment on the first round of stuff that goes in tomorrow than I am today, so I shall hold off on doing so tonight. The process goes well. however, so that's encouraging.
