everything in this world really boils down to convenience... time is money. once you have money, then you have time to do whatever you want to do (i.e. sit on your couch sipping a mojito with real muddled mint leaves while digging thru your crates and listening and reminiscing about your vinyl). Convenience rules all for me unfortunately: I drive a car because it is more convenient to spend 30 minutes to drive 10 miles to work instead of waking up at 4a to walk there. I grab something to eat at a restaurant every now and then because it is more convenient than preparing the food ahead of time at home. I listen to mp3's on my shitty speakers at work because it is more convenient than bringing an hi-fi system and speakers the size of a small child.that being said, I miss Sundays back in the 1980s when my mom would put Diana Ross or The Doobie Brothers or Al Green on the turntable and we'd clean the house and then eat lunch together in the dining room :(
