Pre-Summer Day 15

 It's Her birthday, which I will note is a spring birthday and not a summer birthday. 

 Once again stayed in bed too long, but less long than yesterday. Well, at least tomorrow I have a reason to get out of bed (and maybe I'll get my pace below 10 minutes). Can't remember what I did in the morning. I waited around for a long time for the rain to either start or stop. Eventually around 3 I just went out and did the lake loop in the drizzle. Went to the climbing, was fairly successful (did not climb for very long. I went for hard rather than stamina). Went to my office. Graded some papers. Went to the Chinese restaurant for dinner (and lunch tomorrow, I didn't eat that much; low appetite dll). Finished grading. Recorded a version of the first verse of fishing for birds so that I have the melody saved (apparently I was singing in C which is really convenient since that what the rest of the song was in). Next step is to get the music together, especially the melodic synth. What I have right now is too chaotic and doesn't fit together well. Then I'll put all the voices together, add in some drums and fill out the space with pads and the like. Should be good.

Obviously still pretty unmotivated, anhedonic whatever is the norm. I think I woke up early too but I can't remember. Definitely felt more bad this evening than I have for a few days. Just a low key, non-specific bad. Rest of the day was less bad, though certainly not great. Daytime sleepiness maybe but I haven't given in. At least I don't think I did. 

New Sparklehorse album was announced today which is pretty impressive considering he's been dead for 13 years. I quite liked the single released with the announcement. Oh and the new Kaisers Orchestra song should be coming out soon (or did it last week? It might've been 6/10, not 6/16). And I just learned that The Dead Milkman released a new album last week. And I learned the Front Bottoms are coming to a nearby city in September so that's pretty tempting even though tickets are a bit expensive ($35 before fees). So yeah, a good day for music.
