Just A Saturday

[snoozefestaudio]

79F and overcast this afternoon.

I talked to Brian last night on the phone.

Tim wasn't available.

Brian was in an unusually positive mood, and that seems to have rubbed off on me overnight.

My worries can be boiled down to four;

1. Will the house sale close on time?
   
   
2. Will Prowly be okay?
   
   
3. Will I get that raise?
   
   
4. Can I buy the house back?
   

They're all open questions, right now, and the answers to all four could still be, yes.

Also, at this point, I've done everything it was in my power to do... to affect the outcomes.

The sale is up to BMO and Taylor's team now.

Prowly's made his decision, and I'm still feeding him for the moment.

I've given my support to the union, and am doing well at my job.

As for getting a new mortgage... that's a problem that will only exist if the sale and the union negotiations go well... which would mean I'm already very secure where I am now.

I don't need to buy the house back.

6:22PM

Prowly's food eaten as usual, over at the house today.

While running hot water, I left him more.

Went down in the basement and reset the filter check on the dehumidifyer... then grabbed some spray glue off the shelf down there, and brought my rolling stool that was down there, upstairs.

I grabbed the draft dodger that was in the studio, to use at the apartment, because the front door has a big gap at the bottom that lets light in, and possibly let's smoke smells out into the hall.

I also zipped my acoustic bass in it's soft case, and threw it in the van, along with it's stand.

May as well hang onto it if I can!

Lastly, took the garbage out.

Stopped at Fiesta Food Mart for smokes, and some bar soap, and then came back here.

I used the spray glue to fix some peeling veneer on my corner desk here... seems to have worked pretty well!

And the draft dodger's covering the door gap.

I've been working on, Other Friends in FL Studio for a couple hours now.

It's still hard to work on music, because it reminds me of so many carefree Saturdays and Sundays at the house, doing it in the studio... with Yvette waiting for her next walk, and the cats coming in and out.

But it's been a little easier today than it was two weeks ago.

I was already having an issue, since I began recording last summer, and all through the winter and spring... of not being able to get through singing a song without getting choked up and crying!

That was simply because I thought I'd never record again, and I was so happy to be able to come back to it... mixed with... missing those old days when the songs were written.

Now, it's even harder not to cry, because I'm missing those old days when the current music was recorded at the house!.. and missing Yvette, Snoop, Prowly, and the house itself!

Sucks that I was just on the verge of finally recording vocals back at home before all the shit hit the fan and it was time to start packing and move out... because now I'm self conscious about being heard in the hall.

The walls are soundproof enough, but the door is not!

The whole point of creating a new studio was that I had a house, so I could make as much noise as I wanted, and nobody could hear me.
