i need a walk

I had this whole reflective post in my head. But I can't seem to get it to come out, depsite the page of rambly prose that I just wrote, then deleted. Instead, I'm going to take a walk, and listen to depressing music. Because that fixes everything, right?

Depends.. some depressing music is of the "this is so goddamn mellow.. by the time i finish listening to this i may not have a pulse" variety. (See, e.g., Sigor Ros, Damien Rice, et. al.) and yeah.. i'd say that music is good for fixing pretty much everything.

But then there's the oh jesus christ, i wanna shoot myself depressing music. (all-time classic example: Tracy Chapman). And, outside the rare occasions when such music helps to take your mind off your personal troubles, and leaves you worried about the fate of the universe at large, it should be avoided at all costs. :)
