CDs R Us

We reorganized our CDs today. No blood was shed. We've adopted a strictly alphabetical, no categories organization for what had been folk, folk rock, new age, a cappella, humor, world beat, celtic, and a few other categories. This will make life much easier, both for finding and filing, not having to decide whether, for instance, the Kinsey Sicks is under folk, humor, a cappella, or something else. Is Tempest celtic, folk, folk rock, or world beat? Etc.

Rock, bluegrass/country, blues, and jazz are still separate categories. Not sure this makes sense, but that's how it stands. Grateful Dead is a category unto itself, an entire side of one CD stack, as a matter of fact. Classical has various subcategories and annoying bits -- famous artists performing a variety of composers, for instance, random compilations, organs only, composers vs eras, etc.

But the stacks of unfiled CDs are all filed now, hooray, with a system both of us have agreed on. CD dividers have been ordered to make the organization more visible. A light has been installed nearby to make everything more visible.

So tomorrow I can bring out the holiday CDs. They live in two drawers for 11 months of the year, but tomorrow their one month outing begins.
