A 4th for "Albums enjoyed (week post)" series

I now have a series of blog posts Albums enjoyed (week post) where I, for four weeks already, listen to music almost exclusively as whole albums and publish weekly lists of which albums I listened to and enjoyed (I usually choose to exclude something I listened and absolutely disenjoyed, while annotating the ones I'm not as definitive about).

It started out with listening to ten albums on a Monday or Tuesday because these posts were motivating me. Motivating me they are to discover new music, especially as I know whatever I will find will not be lost in the depths of some listening history as much, and that it is viewable (albums are not only more memorable, but also neater to follow in recaps) and diversity looks better in these posts — whereas on Last.fm repetition counts are what presents the best.

I also found it to be a way to mention highlights in my private life as they happen along the albums I am listening to, or when I make an entry on not listening on a given day. As in those posts I am jokingly acting supposedly obligated to provide content and thus listen to some albums for the posts not to be too blank, I can write days as "i […] ok" which is an act of pretending that by seeing a day-of-week header you are essentially trying to look into my day and as you look around and see nothing I pop out with an excuse in a tone indicating you ought to accept it and that I am supposedly annoyed at having to state that excuse. Except it's actually funny to me to "have to" excuse myself from it.

So here's a recap of all the annotations in the posts so far:

• I had an album annotated with a centered dotted line followed by "[not sure though"]. That was a first for the disenjoyment annotations. Later there were "[ended up not enjoying]" and "[not exactly enjoying]" in week 2.
  
• I marked an album as "present several months' obsession" with a red-on-yellow CSSed badge on the right
• I marked an album with emoji of a speaker and arrow down because I deemed it significant that on that occurence I was listening to it on low volume on a speaker
• I marked an album as "s/o recommendation" with a gray toned CSSed badge on the right (I enjoyed it!)
  
• An "i […] ok" day with no albums, as described above. It was also nice to find a way to share that I had a good time that day, while making it humorous.
• analogically "Pride March! […] spent the rest of the day aftering"
• and the next day "[…] and went back home and fell asleep"
• once just "whoosh" after the other day
• once where an excuse could go I went ranting about Bluetooth headphones
• once "morning dental canal treatment and then uncontrollable napping"
• Just saying for a day that I was playing a game (because soundtrack!) for the first time, mentioning that it was with my gf. I really enjoy being able to relate my music listening with such informality.
  
• From week 2 I started realizing that I can do entries describing selective listening too. So in week 2 there came "(Disc 2)" and "planned skip: <track title>".
• Also I had albums left unfinished and resumed later, so I started doing that between days and weeks with "(only just started)", "(continuing from Friday)", "(just the [1st 2nd 3rd] ⅓ [of it])", "(just the first ⅔)"
• When I listened to three consecutive single-type releases I made them into a <div> to resemble an album. I also made a jokingly striking-through the first one's designation as EP and calling it a single release instead.
  
• A release was made to be informally deluxe (with non-album tracks added) on Bandcamp. So I later amended its entry to say "[Bandcamp]".
• During the recent Metallica Stranger Things trend I could place a "no i didn't watch Stranger Things… / …it was a Spotify recommendation" below a Death Magnetic entry
  
• I could also annotate days to better illustrate my listening. And so
• in week 2 I mentioned with a tiny right-floating annotation how the day started with personal sad news and I was mourning
• I made annotations on where i was travelling inter-city and about having had a date with my gf, and another one about having been listening in a tram to another date with gf
• once I also straight out went for personal life relationship happenings reveal
• mentioning listening in commute to/from office, mentioning poor headphones
• mentioning listening sitting in an extremely noisy and somewhat unsafe gangway connector of an intercity train
  
• mentioning that a song about cloudy sky in Kraków had me in Kraków have it start right after it started raining
• since the post series is on listening to music, I also mention things relevant to my listening. One day I decided to mention that I made a Discogs account.
• Later that day I also ended up buying a CD on there so even more relevant to mention, and it's nice that I can also make this kind of entries — when I bought an artist's discography on Bandcamp two days before, I also did make a note about that.

I really sometimes just do be microblogging there fr.
