So, things are looking up. I don't really want to talk about it; I've talked about it enough in the past week. Thanks for all your commiseratory comments, though.
The Troika Music Festival was awesome. I had a lot of fun, and made some new friends, and am exhausted and glad it's over. I will write more about it when I get the chance.

God damn it.
So my fucking girlfriend just wants me to sit around while she decides whether or not she feels like she can put the effort into sustaining a relationship. If I had any self esteem at all I would tell her to go fuck herself until she broke something, but I don't, so I just sit here, scraped red and raw and wide...

I can't begin to tell you the extent to which I empathize.
I'd recommend not telling her to fuck herself. But don't go the complete other route, either. So yeah, my advice is to compromise, but err to the side of sitting around waiting.
Or go out, get drunk, and fuck her little sister.

Story of my life, dude.

I wish I could be there on Saturday. I have expressed as much to Rubeo. But I will be working all the live long day. And yeah, they still haven't perfected the bike trailer that can carry a drum kit. But when they do...
Tonight was notable for two reasons:
1) I finally got to see Dressy Bessy. The last time they came through there, I had to work and get Tammy Ealom's autograph vicariously. Tonight they rocked my socks off for reals.
2) I was totally and utterly ditched by
a) the bassist in my band
b) my girlfriend
c) my ex-girlfriend
d) my ex-girlfriend's gay boyfriend
Clearly,...

Hey, yo! I talked to your sis (Al) about this and she referenced me to you!
I'm a recording engineer and I am interested in exploring the possibilities of improving the MP3 codec or the quality of compressed audio in general.
I was wondering if you had an opinion as to whether the MP3 codec is something that could be compacted so as to allow for real-time encoding and decoding. That way we could monitor source audio at MP3 quality while mixing so that the sound of music played as MP3's can be improved in the short-run.
Of course, this is all assuming that it would be worthwhile placing effort in to improving MP3 technology as opposed to developing a new way of coding audio, but whatever. Its something to ponder.
Your sister also mentioned that you had studied the compression of high-fidelity audio in some depth and I would love to pick your brain as to the newest developments and the future of coding. Im not a programmer or mathematician, but I do hold a professional interest in the future of encoded audio. Thanks!

Lol, indeed. Well, I'm glad that it's something that interests you, take your time, I'm interested to see what you think!
Thanks!
Thanks!
This weekend I watched the Dungeons & Dragons movie. This movie is, with the possible exception of Bring It On, the worst fucking movie I have ever seen. What are Jeremy Irons and Richard O'Brien even doing in this movie (aside from acting circles around everyone else [see footnote 1])? By the end of it, Jeremy Irons is (possibly in an attempt at damage...

Of course, the "I think" at the beginning was for comedic effect. I think double teaming Rory with high fives and such would be awesome and hilarious (that "I think" was for serious).
thisiswhoweare:
Oh yeah, you better believe I own all the Aubrey / Maturin novels!
I thought the movie was very well done though, considering the limitations of a 2 hour film. But you're right, the books are on a whole other level.
I've also read all the "Horatio Horblower" novels, and am currently working my way through the "Nathanial Drinkwater" series. The non-fiction books alone on the subject take up 3 shelves in my tiny apt.
There's just something about that period and life that fascinates the hell out of me.

I am sad because my girlfriend and I are rapidly liking each other less and less. She makes me feel rejected, neglected, and ignored, and in response I become bitter and unpleasant, thus giving her plenty good cause to continue the cycle. I know that communication is key here, but it seems like no matter how much it comes up and how much we talk...

Yeah yeah, everyone is better than America....we watch two jumbo jets slam into skyscrapers full of people on live television, and then get all hysterical about it. What a bunch of losers. Stiff upper lip and all that. Uh-huh.
Also, Yngwie sucks a lot. But I have to appreciate his technical mastery. Although I'm more of a Nile Rogers man myself.

Okay, I so want to know more about your tattoo. When I first saw Al's post I thought she was referring only to a negative sign, and that it was a joke at that. So, whoa. Whose idea was it? How old were you? What did you use to do it?
I am a nosy girl.

A big chunk of rock or something dropped off the back of someone's truck on the freeway today, and *clunk*, it flattened my tire. It also made me realize what a fucking out of shape sissy I have become: I came very close to both herniating my abdominal cavity and fucking up my back trying to get my wheel's lug nuts off (see...

That. Sounds. Godawful.
Do you have perfect pitch? Because then it must have been, like, Chinese water torture. My mother always begged off our school performances because of all the off-key singing. She once had my dad videotape a production of "Godspell" I was in, and then she watched it with the sound off.

I'm not really with it, feel like I've had a few drinks, and typing a bit like that too... shame i haven't really...
Good luck with the job hunting!!
