Re: Absorbed

If there is an issue that needs resolving, I'm like a dog woth a bone. I will think, and rationalize, and not stop working at a solution until I find one.
I'd call that being absorbed

Re: Absorbed

For the first five months of this year on this forum on a certain albums thread. A desperately sad and tedious existence which on reflection was a completely pointless exercise.

It wasn't pointless, Floydy, I learned - indeed am still learning - a lot from that thread. You introduced me to people I had never heard of and music I had never listened to before - but will again. Thank you!!

Re: Absorbed

I agree tabby not pointless at all, don't do yourself down Floydy you set yourself a task and saw it through and lots of us enjoyed it too

I'm easily distracted but I must admit I do get totally absorbed when I'm decorating a room, I love transforming things and spaces... the garden too I get absorbed in that, wish it was bigger

I always get absorbed in my reading material on my Kindle.

If you keep saying that Floydy, I'll send a really big person round to sort you out.

I really enjoyed it and it's out there forever.

Why is that I wonder?

After work, a lot of men are either glued to the telly, or snoring in their favourite chair .... aren't they?
No, no, it's because men are better at multi-tasking.

Surely not Floydy it must have been an enjoyable experience for you re living the moments music has the power to bring back to us.

I think many who share your love for particular pieces of music will have enjoyed listening to your selection too.
People don't always feel the need to comment, it doesn't mean they haven't taken note of something.
