Just a retired social worker who wanted to return to her college job alphabetizing records (I won’t try to sell to you here, I just wanna talk music!).

eBay: PureJoyRecords
Now spinning (engineered by Girls Rock Pgh alum Madeleine Campbell). I used to receive Spravato (esketemine) nasal spray treatments for treatment resistant depression, and this is one of the albums I liked to listen to.

Wait, forgot Cindy Lee is a Canadian band.

Now spinning. Back to alphabetizing. Will I ever be finished alphabetizing the records?

There’s a new Shannon Wright, but the vinyl version only appears to be available through a label in France. I don’t even have $ for records released in the US right now, but Mental Note To Self.

Been real sad, so I started alphabetizing the records again. Found some gems. This would be worth some $$$ but it was my mom’s and she never took care of her records.

My teenager told me to turn down Mississippi Kween.

I’ve changed gears a bit. We’re iced in and my general mood is lay-on-the-floor-and-listen-to-records.

I found it. Miles standish proud.

I haven’t been logging in recently, but I have been:
- watching Twin Peaks
- teaching myself how to play the drums
- alphabetizing our records
- marking down all of my vinyl on eBay and cleaning/listing a bunch of old 45s, if you’re into that sort of thing.

Slant 6 is Christmas Music if you listen to it on December 24th.

Skips, but I keep playing it expecting different results.

I mostly listen to records at home, but these were my top 5 from replay (I had a depressive episode in January and only listened to Mountains, hence the 24 year old record).

I thought I found the best thrift store find ever today (sealed!)…alas, it is a LaserDisk. Apparently they’re still worth something, but I think I want to just hang it on my wall.

D-O-W-N and that’s the way we get down!

I don’t normally post stuff I’m selling; I was itching to keep this but honestly I probably have it, I just need to alphabetize my records. Tag yourself if you’re on the cover. Album art by high school bud Shawn Brackbill (is he on here?).

I had to sell a lot of my records when I was fleeing Chicago due to an unfortunate situation. My current partner bought a good bit of them, though, because “if you sell them, you won’t have them anymore.” Now spinning my long lost Los Crudos/Spitboy split.

Today Mr. Meepers decided to join in the fun.

Starting to feel like a Beastie Boys fan page (which it is, sue me), but this is the first I remember purchasing. The first I remember owning, aside from Free to Be You & Me and Sesame Street records was Thriller.

I’ve now shifted gears; this one tends to be polarizing but I love it and think she’s a genius.

Kenwood is back in business, playing through both speakers. I would like to thank yinz, especially @atl.bsky.social , for your support during this troubling time.

Missing dad, so I’m listening to his records on his record player which is playing comically slightly fast? Mine was playing out of one speaker. Most convenient hobby ever. 😂
November 19, 2024 at 6:59 PM
I’ve never had a new fancy turntable, but I am considering going that route at some point. Mine’s only playing out of one speaker. Think it’s the connector to the speaker wire.
