HI I’M ON MUSICWHORE AND I CAN OVERTHINK A …

One of the more enduring in-jokes at Metafilter is HI I’M ON METAFILTER AND I CAN OVERTHINK A PLATE OF BEANS. It essentially means over-analyzing something fairly trivial, something that doesn’t happen on this site. Oh, no sir.

But I may be overthinking how much I write — or lately, how much I don’t write — for the site. I’ve got tons of stuff playing on the media player, and they’re all organized by all sorts of priorities, but do I actually sit down and get through all that work? No, not really.

In 2005, I revamped this site from a fairly interactive music zine to a simple weblog. Now it feels I need to rethink my content priorities again.

I can’t seem to shake this sense of obligation to write about every single thing I’m listening to, which is not helped by the fact I can have tons of stuff on the media player at any time. And this blog is not the only outlet of expression I have.

So I think I’m just going to continue to post once in a while when something pops up — some release news — but for now, I need to take some more time to figure out about what I want to write and how I’m going to write it.
