HOLY GODS.
So my friends (![[journalfen.net profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
niquerio and dreamsquirrel on lj) sent me a package for the holiday, with no note or card or anything: it held a USB external hard drive enclosure with a 250 GB SATA hard drive in it. Which was way, way more than they should have done, considering all they got from me was a box of reject books and a Christmas card with the Grinch on it. But I wasn't going to say no to 250 gigs of storage, considering my tendency to hoard mp3s and butterfly between fandoms, torrents in tow.
But then I finally got it hooked up tonight (note to self: make sure actual hard drive is actually connected to enclosure) and it's not a 250 gig spare drive: it's a 250 gig drive with 200 gigs of mp3s on it.
And this is the couple who probably have the best taste in music (and know more about it) of everyone I know, so it's all *good* music. Album upon album of early music, folk music of all kinds, geek rock, video games, world fusion, showtunes, 1930s swing ...
I don't have enough time left in my *lifespan* to listen to all of this!
Holy gods.
(um. Proper new-year update coming soon. Just. holy gods.)
