So … let me tell you about my favorite holiday ever — Black Friday. See, while everyone else and their mother is out shopping at all hours of the day and night fighting with one another for bargain deals, I tend to stay indoors warm and cozy doing absolutely nothing. You see, out here in the wilds of Connecticut, there ain’t much to do anyway … so for the most part, relaxation is the only thing on the menu. And boy, did I indulge yesterday.
I can’t say that I was totally unproductive. I spent a bit of time yesterday afternoon going thru my massive iTunes music library and upgrading all of my low quality 128kbps mp3 files to high quality files from the iTunes store. iTunes Match, which only costs $24.99 a year, makes it easy to replace most of your low quality files with higher quality, better sounding files. Of course not everything in my library is upgradable and the matching process is not perfect (I’d say about 8% of my files were not able to be matched for upgrade even tho they should deffo be eligible) but for what iTunes Match offers already, it’s well worth the cost. I was a bit mortified to find that some of my favorite albums were encoded at a measly 128kbps. Now, most of them are at the higher quality format they deserve.
Another bit of good news to pass along. It turns out that I am taking David’s sister Eden to see The Cure in NYC tomorrow night:
She was so jealous to hear of the Cure show in LA last Monday that we decided to look for tickets. Thankfully, we found a great pair for a very reasonable price so … I’m gonna get to see The Cure again! I’ll have seen the first LA show and the last NYC show — the first and last shows of the only US dates they are doing this tour. I am very excited.
I’m thinking tonight will be another quiet night. David is going to his high school reunion and I will, most likely be going to bed early :) Happy Saturday, y’all!!
