Other than specific sports games, my TV is on for background noise more than anything. It is on right now (on my computer) but I'm not actually watching it. With the addictive personality type that I have, I do things in bursts. I decided some months back that I didn't like my computer room so over the next week I designed a new deck system, then bought wood, built it, installed everything and then that was done, but like everything else, that had 100% focus from start to finish. Now I am designing a dog area for Chunk. 12x8, with a dog house, a kiddie pool embedded, and a pitched roof with a gutter that will tie into the gutter running off the garage roof. Once the planning is done I will probably build the thing over 2 long days. And I build right. Glued AND screwed base components, shingled roof...

I WISH that I still had the drive to care more about music. I must have a dozen songs started but no ambition to finish them. It really comes down to me being pretty much done with music. I don't want to play for a bunch of old people with combovers who don't know good from bad or at a wedding so some somebody's drunk Uncle Fred can embarrass himself by acting the fool on the dance floor. I WOULD play in a concert setting where people sit in the seats and adore us like they are supposed to. I have this whole next-level mental block thing going on about music being respected as the beautiful art form it is. Always had that. I have taken music WAY too seriously for the entire 65 years that I have been playing it. If I am on a stage performing my craft, you shut up and listen. I don't come to the gas station where you maintain the Slurpee machine and disturb you at work. But that's just the addictive, dismissive, irreverent, arrogant personality that I have. And make no excuses for.

All comes down to "you do you".
