Sennheiser and a wool cap

I think I've started a post like this before. But, sometimes things just come together.

As a case in point, Sennheiser makes some stupidly great headphones. Now, since I've graduated to god-tier listening levels, I feel required to pose the following question to myself. This is highly necessary. Have I become one of the audiophile dweebs I've always criticized... one of those guys who's too wrapped up in reproducing sound instead of refining their ability to create it? No way. It simply cannot be. And now that I'm thinking about it, the opposite leaves me excited. It makes me wanna shout, "Mercy! I'm emotionally vibrant whilst considering myself a gangster!"

Yeaaaaaaah XD Slammin.



Ok. Seriously, though... these headphones are outstanding. I had completely forgotten what it felt like to have porous playback... layered comfort. Basslines are supposed to keep you warm at night. And the highs? The highs are supposed to make you kinda cock your head to get comfortable with it and then just get clobbered by the downbeat. I don't know what I'm talking about.

No idea.


At any rate, it does feel good to be a gangster.


Hours are many with twelve a'workin each day before today this week. Today was a cozy 10.

I got to go to the electronics store to get a new test headset for the softphones for the agents. I got a Sennheiser pair. And after testing it this afternoon, I went back and got a pair for myself. I'm so happy I did. Earbuds just... they just don't do it. They're great for on-the-go stuff, but I've outgrown my piss-off-the-downstairs-neighbors phase and just use headphones at home. Now... when I play guitar... that's another story :D

My mom was up here for a couple weeks visiting family. It was good to see her in such great spirits. She always is anyway, but you know what I mean. I hung out with her a bit and fulfilled my obligation as her tech-geek son by scraping data off an old, failing hard drive. Mission barely accomplished.

Insert badass drummer here. Sorry. I'm just testing these headphones on all kinds of stuff. After using $4 WalMart headphones for several months (yes, I got the nice $4 ones), this is incredible.

I had wanted to write a bunch more here but... I'm all ***** tonight so I don't think I can do it.

I'm just gonna crawl over to my pillow and call it a day.
