Done day before yesterday (20111121 Mo)
Monday was pretty good, except for a couple of red flags. Productive at work, for once, with a full afternoon of coding (writing a makefile that makes RSS feeds -- hee!). That was fun.
After sleeping on it, I ordered a TASCAM US-800, which Musician's Friend has on sale this month. Linux support is a little iffy, but at that price for a USB-powered interface with six mic preamps, I figure it's worth the risk.
And a short walk (it was cold and moisty), and some music practice.
And I forgot to mention it in Sunday's notes, but Colleen has actually started sewing! Cut out a set of PJ bottoms, all by herself on the scooter.
But.
At 11:30ish I had a major adrenaline spike. Out of the blue, as far as I could tell. In some people, I suppose it would have been a panic attack; fortunately there are some major advantages to being almost completely unaware of my emotions.
And sometime in the afternoon, I started getting neuropathy symptoms, specifically a burning sensation in the sole of my right foot when I walked on it. DO NOT LIKE!
There are good links in the notes; check them out. I should get to work soon.
1121 Mo * up 6:30; W=195.8; drugs, nose, teeth, dishes, light, laundry, music @ Starship Asterisk* - APOD: Around the World in 90 Minutes (2011 Nov 21) video with crowdsourced annotations - cool! @ naamah_darling: The Leg-Biting Bitch Hates Your Precious Fucking Real World The internet is great for introverts. Like, yeah. $ HSX: ordered Tascam US-800 USB audio/midi interface from MF. 6 mic preamps. About the only thing missing is per-channel phantom switches, but it should be perfect for rehearsals. Linux support iffy, but at that price it's worth the risk. * TGl: 3 songs run before heading off to work. : Colleen: forgot to put in yesterday's notes: she has started sewing! cut out PJ bottoms for the YD. All on the scooter. Go Turbo-Cat! * 11:38 adrenaline spike. No idea why. -> thinking about Colleen's mishap last night? Maybe. *- she could maybe get on her knees by lying down and rolling onto her stomach. * short walk, maybe 3/4 mi. Cold and moisty * a full afternoon of coding, building an RSS feed with a Makefile. Fun! | neuropathy: burning sensation in sole of R. foot when I walk on it. DO NOT LIKE! * drop off emergency blankets on the way home -> only left 10; was a small group. They've decamped and gone mobile. @ Occupy San Jose protesters decamp but struggle on Occupy San Jose stages mobile protests in city leaders' driveways @ A View from A Broad - long post about courage and the occupiers. takes a while to get to the point, but it's worth it. * told Colleen about Sherman; wants to clean off her white table. We'll see. Sounds potentially clumsy. | also my nose has been seriously stopped up the last week or so. Closer to 2; it started before Orycon, which I got through on sudafed. " C: How about the scent of hot buttered rum for the holidays? me: How about hot buttered rum -- right now! * sang through all 3 Dave Carter songs in my songbook. Need more.
