Music and OCD

I let my OCD get the best of me this weekend. I decided it was time to do a music backup to my external hard drive in case something was to happen to my computer. I thought it would be a really good idea to create alphabetical folders to organize artists so I started moving files into their corresponding folders until I started getting to compilations and soundtracks…hmmm…how should I organize these? Well, while I was thinking about my brilliant plan for arranging my music files I was remapping my music in iTunes until I realized that whenever I upload a CD or download from the iTunes Store I would have to reorganize the files since it automatically dumps it in the iTune Music folder. Ohhh what have I done??? So, I have spent nearly the entire weekend undoing the mess I created in attempt to organize. Not only did I have to move the files back to their original locations, I also had to go back into iTunes and relocate all of my files. Not to mention I lost ALL of my playlists. What a loser? LOL.
