Sucky Day
Man, today was crap. I woke up and went to take the dog out, and found that she decided her sleeping place was the best place to go potty, AGAIN! I take her out plenty. I try not to let her out of her crate until she goes outside, otherwise she'll just go somewhere in my house. Frustrating.
Then, on my way to Kalamazoo, my car died a couple times. I just put a new cold air intake on it, and I think there is a leak before the air-flow sensor. They didn't supply me with the right straight hose to connect the air intake, so I'm sure that's the problem. I'll have to order one tonight.
Then, before I headed into work, I couldn't find my keys! I still can't find them. So I just said, "Screw it. I've worked at least 8 hours for 15 days in a row, I'll just take the night off."
The good news is that, for once, I can afford to take a night off, so it's not too bad. I have one more sick day I can use and a couple vacation days.
And now I have time to play with the new toys I got, and the reason why I drove to Kalamazoo! I bought two new condenser mics today: MXL 990 and 991. I also got a shock mount and pop filter for it. My vocal track recording should improve immensely.
My next buys will be an M-Audio 1010 and a Behringer MX9000 Eurodesk hopefully. Then I will be able to record pretty much everything, including drums. Time to save up some more money. Did I mention I need a new guitar amp?

Well, at least the chances that tomorrow will be a better day are increased due to the fact that just being better than today will be going up. :D
