The Theme for Today

The theme for today is getting stuff done. I guess. Running errands, cleaning, straightening up. One of the kids is coming over tonight and I want the place to be ship shape when she gets here. Not that she’ll be fooled at all… I mean she lived here before… she knows a house cleaning snow job when she sees one. Heh heh.

At least I got the grocery shopping done… though I think I need to go again tomorrow.

More Car Music

Another day, another batch of recorded vocals in the car in the (mostly) empty movie theater parking lot. No movies were watched during this early morning session, but vocals were added to three songs.

I am done with vocals for this month, thank goodness. I hate the sound of my own voice and I don’t like singing and I don’t like writing lyrics and my melodies are dumb. I just don’t like not having a vocal part of the crappy songs that I write so if I am gonna write songs, they are gonna have vocals. My kingdom for a little self confidence… and talent.

I have seven songs for this months National Solo Album Month project. All seven have vocals. Now I can get back to recording guitars (it’s time for lead guitars and solos and solos and solos) and then just mix ’em all down and I’ll be done. Eight days left.

A.I. at Work

I just had Google’s A.I. transcribe and summarize a conference call I was on. It worked, I guess. Reading through the transcript I had one important fact hammered home to me.

When I speak in public I sounds as if I am roughly as intelligent as a chipmunk. Make that a chipmunk with a speech impediment. I mean… wow, do I suck at speaking.

Here’s today’s photo a day pic to distract you all from how bad I suck at verbal communication. Ah-duh.

A Tiny Bit Different

Something a little different for today’s photo a day. I used a flash. It’s still just a pre-work iPhone picture of a guitar, but it’s a little bit different than the usual boring crap. Of course… it’s still boring crap, just a little bit different, that’s all. Whatever, it’s been a long Monday.

Wishes

My wish today is that my band would actually exist. This not having a band after almost having a band again is getting depressing. I floated the idea of a practice next week and it’s fallen on mostly deaf ears.

Crud.
