The last few days have been clean-up days. I've been taking some of the "completed" songs from my hard drive and archiving them to CD-ROM. It's not a fun process, but it needs to be done. It's a lot like cleaning your kitchen, ya know!?
In the process, I've probably freed up about 5-6 gigs on my hard drive. Music takes up a lot of space! On some songs it can take almost two full CD's to archive all the files.
While I've been letting the CD's burn, I've also been re-reading old lyrics and thinking about which ones I want to start recording.
There's one that I might start on soon called "This House is Haunted". It's loosely about some old neighbors of mine that got divorced. It was really hard on both of them, and for a long time, they couldn't let go. It's like they were both still haunted by the marriage. The house where they had lived stood empty for a long time. It seemed to be a cool metaphor for their empty relationship.
Of course, by now, two of the kids in the family are married (both with kids), another daughter is a returned missionary, and one of the sons is preparing for a mission.
I think the song is about 8 years old or so...
Think I should get around to it? :-)
