Hardly In Love

To get back in the swing of things, I recorded a quick cover tonight. It sounded good in my headphones as I played it back, but when I exported from Garageband to iTunes and played it back, the vocals seem much higher and the guitar much quieter. I'm not sure if I should look to the headphones, Garageband, or the computer speakers for the change. I suppose I could burn a CD and play it on the stereo, but it's not like this is going to go on a record or anything. If you want to hear, here it is: http://www.threechordme.com/sounds/alwaysinlove.mp3
If you don't recognize the tune, it is Wilco's "Always In Love" from Summerteeth.

I turn on the television too much. So I've covered it up. No TV for at least a week. No movies, no video games, no nighttime dramas or sitcoms. No TV. I encourage others to try it out as well.


Still looking for jobs, praying that I'll hear back from 3M, but not counting on it. I'm finishing up a snail mail newsletter. Those of you who read my blog regularly probably won't get much new from it, but I'm doing it by hand and it should be pretty to look at. Is it improper to end a sentence with "at"? Is "at" a proposition? You're not supposed to end sentences with propositions. It confuses folks from Missourri.

It feels rude to comment not having listened to the song yet, but, well, i'm a pretty rude person. Mostly i wanted to talk about prepositions. Yes, "at" is one, but Missourians will be disheartened to learn that modern grammarists are obsoleting that rule. Also, congratulations on the separation from your television. If not for big research projects i'd try it with my computer. And i wish you the best of luck with the job search, of course.

We knew this lady from Missourri and if you were going somewhere and asked her if she "wanted to come with", she'd always think, "come with what?"

I get too much useful stuff done with the computer to give it up. I've decided the exception for watching television is if I should need it to watch instructional guitar videos on DVD.
