An update and a preview today! I am currently writing the first draft for the second arc. In fact this morning I finished episode 6, listened to the episodes I’m posting today and almost got whiplash.

Kid’s school is now closed indefinitely, so that means that I must get accustomed to the new schedule. It’s been working so far, I am contemplating the merits of cleaning out my closet so I can just record in there.

Lesson this week? .

ORGANIZATION! Guys, guys…guys…I organized my sound effects and oh my god, it’s like I’m a new person. Yes, for the last few months I have literally been sorting through 100’s of sound effects organized by who knows what algorithm in my download folder because I was too lazy to organize it. Well, did you know that stay at home orders are boring? If you didn’t: stay at home orders are boring. You know what’s marginally less boring? Organizing sound files. You know what’s truly beautiful?? Finding the sound you were looking for in under a minute.

I have been wasting so much time.

I still have no idea what I’m doing. Like…the more I try to look, the less I know. My dream for now is to just…level up to whatever sound system thingy adobe uses. I mean, Audacity is fine, but I’ve seen the Adobe system and I’ve gotta say, it’s really sweet looking. It has a user friendly interface! I’m about to sell my left…just my entire left, for it. Who needs a heart?

Anyway, I’m still chugging along,
