If I reflect a little, I feel I missed the boat on anamie and manga - I'm still willing to play with those media, but that universe is so vast, I really need a guide. I check out on pop culture in Television, so perhaps that allows me my continued interest in new and different music. In any event, I think I may need to quit my job soon - or continue to transform it perhaps.... |
I heard this story on NPR yesterday and instantly thought of you and NA. You are both still very adventurous musically, going to Coachella, etc. I admire that. I, on the other hand, am right in the middle of the statistical norm for my age bracket. I listen to classic rock and haven't bought a new CD in about 10 years. I'm just not interested in new music. I don't know why, maybe there are too many other things taking up my time, jobs, kids, etc. If anything, I am regressing and listening to older music from the 40's and 50's. I still like to adventure in other areas, just not musically. Transforming your job sounds like a better alternative to quitting, at least there would be no loss if you did that first.
