..Because I can't stop buying records. I think I've bought about 30 in the 
past few weeks. Granted, I was in New York City and I have a friend visiting 
who's record-crazy, so I've been shopping more than normal, but I'm starting 
to feel over-accumulating. I was driving home this evening, free-form self 
pity taking hold, and I thought, well, I could stop at Tower and see if they 
have the Go-Betweens best of on cassette (most beloved format, I'm sad at 
your slow decline), and that would make me feel better. Then I thought, what 
the fuck, that's five minutes of walking into the record store, seizing the 
purchase, paying for it, feeling some anticipation before fucking off back 
home, everything same as before. I always get some tiny thrill out of filing 
away a new purchase, then surveying my entire collection, now a mite bigger. 
I dunno. I've been fairly anti-religion, because I just think it's a crutch 
for weak people who can't find faith in themselves, but sometimes my rancor 
feels hypocritical as I'm also trying to fill a void or  big question mark in 
my head with the meaning I get from books, music, movies, etc, while others 
use Jesus or whomever. Granted, no one has yet started a Holy War to force, 
say, Belle and Sebastian on the heathens. Um ,enough. Would someone please 
change my diaper?
