Sleep Training

Well… it’s going quite well this sleep training all things considered. I’m now going to bed at 12 and getting up at 6.30. I’ll probably just drop half an hour next week to 6 hours. Apart from the obvious problem of tiredness, it really isn’t that bad at all. I’ve got loads more time in the mornings to tinker about and download stuff, play with my music collection e.t.c. The biggest bummer is having to keep it up over the weekend! I think the reason it isn’t hitting me as hard is because i’ve managed to get up at un-godly hours consistently.

Anyhoo… with this extra time i’ve managed to finally finish all of my ‘anal’ tweaks to my mp3 music collection. Adding artwork, years, correct track orders and what-have-you. I tend to get a little obsessive the tagging of my mp3 collection, but it’s absolutely great now especially in the new iTunes which has the dukebox-esque artwork carousel. It seems to have added value to what was quite a throw away thing and elevated it closer to a real object.

I also checked out my Last.fm music profile the other day… My god What the hell my collection looks like if you didn’t know me!? The thing is it only updates the music I listen to directly from my computer and not from my iPod which is what I use mainly. The thing is, that when we listen to music at home, we generally shuffle the whole 80GB worth which is both my music, Toni’s music and music, like a blackbird, I have acquired from friends at work e.t.c. Needless to say, I wasn’t too happy with the reported stats. I may have to start listening to stuff on purpose to skew the results – Music Propaganda!
