I'm
having one of those days where I suddenly realise that my workload cannot be
fitted into the time that I have available and I have to start deciding what to
offset until tomorrow. I'm not sure how this happens, but I imagine getting distracted
by cardistry videos at several times during the course of last week probably
had something to with it. The time of year is a contributing factor too, of
course, as we sprint inexorably towards Easter, and we have to have the sites
ready for the joys of maximum capacity, so the list of daily tasks is automatically
and understandably longer than before, but still... I feel like I may have made
a bit of a boo-boo vis-a-vis time management and am now reaping the
consequences with increased stress.
I'm sure it'll all get done though; especially if I stop distracting myself
with blog writing and get on with the bloody things I'm supposed to be getting
on with.
Before I get to that though, I must just share my praise and appreciation for a
band called 'Wunderhorse'. I don't know much about them, other than the fact
that I am very much enjoying repeat listening of their debut album
"Cub". They were recommended to me by a member of staff, who heard me
playing the album "Heartbreaker" by Ryan Adams in my office and said
that it reminded him a bit of Wunderhorse. So I gave them a listen, and he's
right. A couple of the tracks are very reminiscent of Mr Adams in the early
21st century. There are also songs that have a hint of certain 80s numbers by
The Cure and Depeche Mode, while also sounding very modern and fresh. Standout
tracks for me would be 'Leader of the Pack', 'Teal' and 'Morphine' but each of
the others are also with their own merits.
And now I am going to give their second album 'Midas' a listen.
(And get on with some work, obviously...)
