SO I haven’t updated Downcast on the office iPad for a few weeks, it seems. I’m into heavy reading and research and didn’t want to think about soundtracking so I thought, sling up the podcast app, because I subscribe to a lot of music podcasts.

I also walk every day, which is often when I listen to them (Downcast on the iPad syncs with Downcast on the iPhone). But, of course, I’m not walking every day any more, not sitting outside bars with a glass of wine listening to them, wandering the food hall listening to them. Hence, when I opened Downcast on the iPad, thinking, oh, it’s syncing, this won’t take long…. three and a half gig. A weird reminder of lockdown’s impact on my days.

I’ve really got to get outside for a walk tomorrow. This shit is wrecking my body now, and I have three and a half gigs of music to listen to.
