I too like EDM a lot, but probably prefer a bit more melody than you. Trance is a lifelong favourite, especially Tiƫsto!
On the other end of the scale, I like artists like VNV Nation and Rammstein, but they are most certainly not everyoneās cup of tea and probably more industrial than EDM.

Day 67
Another productive day at work. Finally starting to settle into a good routine and hitting the mark with all the tasks and it feels good.
Had a frustration earlier that Iām currently working through so that it doesnt build into a resentment. Lawd, help me
Iām just now starting to wind down this evening and relax a bit. ODAAT

Checking in, day 17 AF, weed free 18 days. I have my birthday today, turning 45 years old. I seriously thought yesterday that oh yes, I can have a glass of wine to celebrate, but oh my gosh, wtf was I thinking! I canāt just have one glass because it will turn into bingeing four bottles and so on. So, Iām gonna stay sober today, read books, watch movies and just chillin under a warm blanket because itās getting pretty cold outside. Life feels good at the moment despite of the little anxiety and unknown fear. Have a wonderful sober day/evening/night, peeps!

@Dirk Nah, I like it all. ATLiens is actually a pretty recent find of mine, but I usually prefer more like Timmy Trumpet, AC slater, Yellow Claw, Martin Garrix, Dom Dollaā¦more up tempo stuff. I do like Rammstein tho 
@MrMoustache Happy Birthday!

Itās 12:34 and Iāve just gotten settled for the night. Long day, as I knew it would be. Not a soul walked into the building for lunch, but 15 minutes before my shift ended, the guy who gave me the tickets walked in for a drink. I was so ready to go, but I stayed and talked(and Iām glad bc he told me of a secret, quicker entrance to the venue). Went home with 2 hours before I had to leave, in which I took one of those naps you wake up from not knowing where you are 
Left with over an hour to get there, but downtown traffic was so bad, I parked in a random lot and walked half a mile. So much faster than staying in the car line. Got there just as the first song started. IT WAS AWESOME 
Super grateful I was able to go. It was over at 9:30, but it was snowing on the way back so we got home at 10:30. Gave my girl a snack before bed and just finished cracking open about 1/2 dozen crab clusters for myself. Took me half hour 
but worth it. It feels like Iāll be sleeping good tonight. Hope you all have a good one

Checkin on day 27
Starting to feel a bit more human. Still achey bones and joints, wheezy chest and a cough but I donāt feel like I need to be in bed. What the heck was that?? Unbelievable. Iāve not felt like that in years and years, in bed shivering and physically unable to move or get up. My alcoholic brain went straight to the āget some wineā , āyou will feel betterā, āit wonāt be as badā and so on. And that may have been true. I might have been able to numb it and not feel as bad but the next morning I still felt very unwell so imagine adding hangxiety to that. I would have had to drink again the next day as well. If that was the case, we would be here on day 3 drinking again and we know how that goes. See you in a few years when I start all over againā¦ hopefully. Best case scenario. Worst case scenario, I donāt make it back at all.
Instead, I am grateful I can drag my achey bones into day 28 and keep this show on the road.

The Singer Museum was not big but high quality. The visitors a bit too neat and posh. I felt out of place, it still was nice. Good bike ride too, although the rain made it harder. Today lots of rain again. For now Iām not going anywhere. Iāll make today as good a day as I can and expect the same from all of you. Sober and clean or nothing will come of it. Love from my bike ride.

Hi fellow insomniac! 
From memory, you decided to go to where you are now (KY or TN, I am sorry that I forgot which) because you needed a change of scenery and a way to earn a reliable income. Have either of those two reasons since changed?
If not, I am not sure that a new place is going to give you a very different experience. Life will still be full of up and downs, hurdles and disappointments like it is for everyone and you will still miss your dogs. Maybe the better plan would be to be reunited with the dogs and make where you are and what you do work?
The above may be an oversimplification, but I hope you get the gist.

Day 1145 AF
TW: Death
Hey, fam.
I went to my cousinās dadās viewing yesterday. I got to see a lot of cousins I had not seen in years. Iām talking about over 16 years plus. My dad distanced himself after my aunt (his sister) passed away and some other family drama. I helped the family carry the coffin inside their home. It brought memories of my auntās passing when I was 10 years old. She was only 42 when she passed from colon cancer. We visited her almost daily before she left us. I donāt have a lot of memories of my uncle. I never really bonded with him, but I felt for the family.
Didnāt do much today. I went to PT in the morning, worked, and went for a walk in the park. Kids were fighting like always. Iām ready for the weekend. Gotta start Xmas shopping for the kiddos.
Well, thatās all from me today. Iāll catch up with yāall later. Take care. Luv u all.
