In the Absence of Better Explanations: Transmission 268, 2016 March 23

Supposedly, I have an opportunity to become wistful about "the way things used to be." Just a few years ago, it seems, I could juggle several responsibilities at once--"multitask," as the kids say. This program provides evidence that I can't do that, or at least that I couldn't on this night. My real job intruded on my pastime, my plans for the evening changed, phone calls needed making, and we would up with the awful result of two Flying Saucer Attack songs being played.

However, I am not going to take advantage of this opportunity. Perhaps not for the best of reasons--my back catalogue is full of mistake-riddled programs. But I have listened back to this one, and it was time well spent, not nearly as atrocious as I thought.

Forgiveness, though, as my counselor tells me, is a process requiring changed behavior over time, so I still need to work on being better, and on pardoning myself.
