Low, low, low
I honestly never deeply feel anything other than that I'm an incredibly lucky person. I've had a blessed life in every department except love, and I don't really mind sacrificing that for everything else I've got. My down times are nothing but annoyances and bad timing and irritating snags, but still...sometimes those three can add up. Like this sum of the last 24 hours where:
Having the Metro show me, once again, how dense and mean human beings can really get
+ Trying to talk crazy people out of making crazy decisions at work
+ Murphy's law applying to everything technological today
+ Olsson's not having the new Architecture in Helsinki CD, which was the one thing I was looking forward to
+ Having to walk across to Dupont to Melody to buy the CD without my jacket because I thought it'd be warmer today than it is
+ Getting back to my office, putting in the CD, excited to FINALLY hear a version of "Do The Whirlwind" that's free of skips and glitches, only to find out that the skip in the mp3 that I'd been listening to for months was not in the mp3, but (presumably) in the American pressing of the CD, because THERE IT IS! That GODDAMN SKIP!!! IN EXACTLY THE SAME PLACE!!!!!!
= WHY DOES GOD HATE ME SO MUCH?!!!
I'm feeling much better now.

Are you sure that's a skip? When I heard it, I thought it just went like that...
Yeah, it's a skip. I've heard the song in three different places:
1) I heard the mp3 on Fluxblog, and it had the skip at "the beat". I thought it was supposed to go like this until...
2) I heard it on the AIH website, in the little flash app. It did NOT have the skip at "the beat".
3) I heard an mp3 that I had downloaded from Limewire in an attempt to get the clean version. This did not have the skip at "the beat", but did have a glitch somewhere else in the song and cut off at the end.
The next step is to download the version that's on iTunes and see what's going on there.
Update: the iTunes version also has the skip. But just when I thought I was going crazy, I realized I still had the version that DOESN'T have the skip in it:
Dig it.
