| | Today I had a lesson in humility... or technology. While attempting to upload an album onto my iPod, I inadvertently erased all 80GB of my precious mp3 device by accidentally removing the USB cord during the upload.
Fortunately, I have maybe 30GB of this backed up, but I will have to download most of these albums again.
As I mourn for my lost loved ones -- the entire discographies of The Smiths, Belle and Sebastian, The Magnetic Fields, and Chingy -- I will bravely attempt to rebuild my music collection, almost entirely from scratch.
Clare says:
are you ok?
Justin says:
devastated
Clare says:
man that really sucks
Clare says:
maybe i'll give you all my music
Justin says:
yes can you
Clare says:
yup
Justin says:
thank you clare
Justin says:
so many wasted hours and days and weeks
Justin says:
i wasted so many hours converting youtube clips into mp3s
Justin says:
so many hours scouring blogs to find mp3s of rare b-sides and live recordings
Justin says:
i gave this fucking bitch so much
Justin says:
and this is how she repays me?
Justin says:
i did everything for her!
Justin says:
i guess she was on her final straw
Justin says:
in the end, it was all my fault
Clare says:
you pushed her to the edge
Justin says:
maybe i never loved her from the start
Justin says:
maybe i need to take a break from her to realize she how much i took her for granted
Justin says:
her sweet melodic whispers in my ear
Justin says:
her gentle consoling whenever i was down
Justin says:
her constant reassurance at the end of the day that everything would be okay
Justin says:
you have made me realize my wrongs, clare
Justin says:
it was always me me me
Justin says:
and not her and I as one harmonious unit
Justin says:
and i let her love and sheer grace slip through the cracks of my music-saturated hands
Justin says:
i am a monster
Justin says:
i can't even look at another ipod anymore
Justin says:
i am no good
Justin says:
please clare, teach me to love again
Justin says:
help me find an ipod that will allow me to be a selfless, nurturing owner
Justin says:
and cultivate a relationship that is honest and true
Justin says:
will you do that for me clare?
Clare says:
please stop
