i'm crashing a little earlier than i wanted to again. the air quality down here is bad. headaches. stomach aches. so, i have the windows open. but, it's not like it's a short day, really - i was up at 1:30 am.

i have a tentative mix for the lead single for the record done, but i'm going to sequence the entire record before i drop any singles. it just has to do with the rational way to remaster the tracks. the singles are going to be a little rough, eq wise - they all are. but, the record needs to flow properly. that's going to mean ensuring everything blends well.

i already have reconstructions for most of the tracks, so the task is primarily to build the segues. and i think this should actually be fairly quick.

so, the record will no doubt come up before the singles do, and then i'll have to go back and reconstruct. that's fine.

right now, i need at least a nap. it's pointless to try and mix tired.

so, i'm done all of the things, now.

i'm going to make myself a substantive meal and then get to some substantial work.

i want this week-end to be productive. i have nothing else planned until monday afternoon. what can i get done in that space?

i'm a tad behind, but it's not too bad.

there is a clear gas leak upstairs, so i'm stuck with the windows open and the fans on and the heat up until they fix it. they put a gas furnace in upstairs to save money. so, i'm hoping that wasting money pisses them off enough that they fix it. and, i don't have any empathy, either. moving from clean electricity to dirty natural gas was a step backwards, and i hope they do pay for it. in the mean time, this may have the effect of slowing me down due to temperature issues. i may need to turn the machine off. we'll have to see.

i got some alter-reality done yesterday:

wednesday was spent cleaning. tuesday was spent doing grocery shopping. i need to do a small number of things this morning, but should be back to work this afternoon. before the afternoon, even.

i'm hoping i can sequence inriched by monday. we'll see.
