Well, the proof CD is, at least. Most of it sounds pretty good, but since I have to fix a handful of typos on the back cover anyway, I’m taking the opportunity to tweak things one more time before ordering the initial stock.

This weekend involved lots of different adventures; starting with hauling us and our friends Ted and Jennyfer out to SBC to catch the oldest playing Titania, Queen of the Fairies in the campus production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, which was pretty great, actually. Spending the evening with our friends was fun, and we did […]

Spent most of the week waiting for people to wrap stuff up at the very last minute, which is how my organization rolls. It’s kinda frustrating. This contributed to a mostly consistent week-long funk, though a little self-medication helped a bit, at least on my regular Thursday night at the grocery store bar with my […]

After working very hard all day Saturday and a good big of Sunday morning, I finalized fifteen audio tracks, corrected some issues with the cover art and uploaded my final files to the duplication service. I should have a review/testing copy of World’s Okayest… in hand by the end of the week. I don’t think […]

Hasn’t been a terrible week, all told. I got some nice hiking in, had a pretty good open mic this month, made some new friends in my usual Thursday trip to have a drink at the grocery store bar, listened to the “new” Replacements record that just came out, and got some really good advice […]

As it is every week, it’s been a week. I’ve actually gotten a ton done at work, and I’ve speedwalked/hiked the equivalent of three 5k races, but I’ve gotten next to nothing done on the record. Mixed bag, that. Hoping to change that this weekend, however; I’m taking the recording rig on the road at […]

Yes, I missed the usual Friday post this past week, but, really, I don’t owe you anything, do it? Last week was pretty typical, all told. I spent a tremendous amount of time putting out other people’s fires at work, and I went out to see the second-to-last Kickers match of the season with my […]

Still fighting this stupid flu bug/cold. Ugh. Every time I think I’m coming around the back side of it, my head slams shut again. As a result, this week’s sort of just floated by, a life of knocking out documents, sleeping, and popping figurative popcorn while watching political theater in the information age. As I […]

While I didn’t mention this last week, I’ve been struggling with a very quick-onset flu-like bug since the middle of last week. I started feeling an unpleasant tickle in the back of my throat as I was leaving Castleburg on Wednesday night, which, over the course of the 20 minutes-or-so drive home, turned into a […]

When I looked at my electronic pay stub on Wednesday morning for this week’s pay check, I noticed my bottom-line take-home was twenty-five bucks less than it’s been previously. I was concerned for a second, until I saw the notes section, which indicated that I’d moved into a new age category for my life insurance […]
