Song Obsessed

Ever been super obsessed with a particular song? Quite often I can't help but play the same song on repeat - for half an hour - multiple times a week. It's obsessive I know, but I can't help myself. I'm not sure if it's always the melody, the words, the message, or just the feeling the song gives me. I just can't myself.

Right now I'm listening to "Northern Downpour" by Panic at the Disco for like the 1,000,000th time this week. Can't help it.

I've been uber obsessed with music for the last week or so since I bought my new IPod. Fortunately/Unfortunately I found my old IPod on Thursday. I wouldn't have bought a new IPod if I didn't think the old one was gone forever. So it's unfortunate that I spent money on something I didn't really need. But I will admit that the new IPod is super sweet. Like crazy sweet. I'm impressed - and therefore don't really regret the purchase - only the dis-necessity of it.

Why do I get so obsessed about things? I am obsessed with financial planning right now. I can't get it out of my mind and I can't really figure out what I'm doing with my life or what my financial goals should be. I'm frustrated by the fact that I still struggle with my life goals. I know everyone does, but I would have thought after three years of struggling with them that it would get easier and I would have more of a clue. Bully to me - it's not any easier. It's harder actually. It feels like more is at stake even though it's not.

I wish I could figure out what I want out of life. Somehow I don't think it's going to ever get any easier.

I've been reading this odd ass book lately. "The Castle" by Franz Kafka. Flipping odd. It's about this surveyer guy who gets called to this town that has a castle and the guy keeps trying to get in contact with the people at the castle, or get to the castle, or talk to people who talk to people at the castle. It feels like an analogy for modern religion in some sense. In others it seems like an analogy for the fruitless searching that we all do in life. Weird to read...
