It seemed so very appropriate.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m rebelling against music a lot this week. I&#8217;ve not had a chance to listen to anything in work as I&#8217;ve been working in the CD lab for most of the week. My computer won&#8217;t play music and when I do get to listen to stuff I can&#8217;t listen to it for too long without feeling the need for silence. It is quite a strange feeling. I&#8217;m listening to Ryan Adams&#8217; <i>Gold<\/i> while I&#8217;m reading downstairs and it&#8217;s doing allright so far. Might be mild enough to keep going but I must admit I was much more caught up in the music. I&#8217;ve just read the six issue mini <i>Spider-Man: Blue<\/i> from Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale. I had been wondering what the &#8216;blue&#8217; was in relation to and when they out and said it at the end it got to me a little and reminded me of a few things.<\/p>\n<p>Oh I&#8217;ve mentioned this before I think but I&#8217;m going to mention it again. Alex Maleev is one of the best artists in the business these days. Someday in the future I am going to own some of his original artwork for <i>Daredevil<\/i> and it will hang on my wall with great pride.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>they call me the apologist and now that i&#8217;m at peak you know at first it really hurt we joke about these things i&#8217;ve skirted all my differences but now i&#8217;m facing up i wanted to apologize for everything i was so i&#8217;m sorry so sorry did you understand me right the people here are &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/davebushe.net\/words\/2003\/03\/29\/when-the-stars-go-blue\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;when the stars go blue&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3565","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blog"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/davebushe.net\/words\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3565"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/davebushe.net\/words\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/davebushe.net\/words\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/davebushe.net\/words\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/davebushe.net\/words\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3565"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/davebushe.net\/words\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3565\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/davebushe.net\/words\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3565"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/davebushe.net\/words\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3565"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/davebushe.net\/words\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3565"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
