Do-re-misery

Something's wrong with me. I haven't been able to listen to music in three days. I just can't figure out what to hear. It's one of those feelings I sometimes get when trying to decide what to eat. There would be endless possibilities but I wouldn't particularly fancy anything. And then when trying hard to come up with something I'd like, it would get even harder to decide and then all of a sudden nothing would feel right. On the contrary all the food in the world would feel -if not almost inedible- then at least like "blah, I don't fancy that so why bother eating at all". Yeah, I'm a nutcase.

It's not about being bored with music. I love music and I can't fathom living without it. And I haven't listened extensively to any particular band or even type of music lately that would explain some kind of a saturation point being reached. This shouldn't originate from simple boredom due to too much music around me in general, because I haven't actually listened almost any music lately. Been too busy doing other, more serious and boring stuff. Blah.

It most certainly isn't about lack of choices. I do own a pretty extensive collection of music of different genres and epochs. (Well I do have to admit I don't listen to rap or trash metal and the sorts, but then again who in their right mind does?)

This is just utterly frustrating. What to do? I'm going insane already. I need my tunes!!!

Oh well, maybe I'll try out some classical. A little bit of Vivaldi never hurt anyone, right? It's nice and light for this beautiful, sunny spring evening. And I wouldn't have to get anxious about the lyrics either.

Oh the joys of being a fastidious malcontent.
