A blog dedicated to the series of unfortunate events that always happen around me. Not so much unfortunate, more like funny.. but unfortunate sounds better.

Musicology

So not too much happening today. I woke up at 6am to call the university to arrange some things with the housing, and then went back to bed at around 7:30. Then I woke up at 4:30pm. Now you know why not too much happened. I'd tell you about my dreams, but then I'd scare you off (or you'd think I'm a complete nut, although you probably think that already).

Actually, Calabria came over to bring me my plane ticket (yeah, I'm going on vacations to Florida!) late tonight. We had arranged that he'd also bring Led Zeppelin BBC Sessions with him, as that's a CD I've been wanting for quite some time now and it turns out his brother had it. When he gets here he tells me that he forgot, so what do I do? Well, I get in the car and tell him I'm going to go to his apartment to pick it up and then come back. So he doesn't resist much and so we go... and midway I start to think about what I did. So I left the door to my apartment open, the TV in my room on, my computer running and all the lights on. Also, I'm wearing these old shorts with a wrinkled shirt and sandals. Oh, that was quite an idea... Everything ended up alright, though. His family didn't see me like that as I stayed outside while he went in and got the CDs. If they had seen me dressed like that they would've most likely given my ticket to somebody else (and I wouldn't have blamed them).

You know that a couple of weeks ago I went into a record store with a friend just to check a couple of things out. I started browsing through the CDs and recommeding records to my friend. As it turns out, I pretty much have about half of the albums in the record store on my hard drive. The good ones, anyway, none of that reggaeton shit.

Also, DIRECTV has these music channels, where they continually put music depending on the genre or style of the channel. After some time of observation, I have come up with theory. This theory states that a song on my hard drive will play on one of the 5 selected channels (Rock n' Vinyl, Classic Rock, 70's, 80's, 90's) with an interval of no more than 13 minutes. An artist that I have on my hard drive will be played on one of the 5 selected channels (same as before) with an interval of no more than 7 minutes. An artist will play on the Classic Rock channel with an interval of no more than 19 minutes. I am serious, I'll be any amount of money that you want that this will happen, come by to test it.

By the way, referring to the post about FTV, I haven't checked at midnights to see if anything happens, but I can confirm that porn is played on Cosmo (another female network) at 12am. I told you, it's a woman thing...
