This keeps being rewritten from a "read about me justifying my weird purchase" post. I really want it to be "this is why I'm starting to be more productive" post.

The past 5 and a half years have not been as productive as I would have wanted. Though I found ways to make music here and there with apps in my phone, I really couldn't keep up with us having the kids and doing what needs to be done around the house and for work, and still have time and space to make something worthy of more than a "here's this little thing I did" post.

As 2012 was my most productive time, I managed to find a computer that lets me take 2012 out of a bottle, with some modern conveniences added- the huge one being that I can bring it up from sleep mode and launch the software I want in a few seconds. The only issue so far seems to be that it's making me return to the days when everything I did, work or play, was done at the same desk, so that other people in my life can't tell the difference between when I'm working or playing, or when it's safe to interrupt.

That can be worked out later.

I also have been using point and shoot cameras instead of my phone's when possible, because I find the phone's camera app takes too long to launch when I need it, and a cheap tablet for reading and media so that I'm only looking at my phone if it's actual messages or for social. More on that another time, maybe.
