Winter drags on with cold and storms.  Work work work.  In the end I can in fourth out 100 engineers in the bug-fix marathon, just short of getting an extra bonus.  Two of the guys ahead of me were managers who get to say who fixes what bug.  Hopefully things will relax in the office for a while.<\/p>\n<p>Jay and I are still mixing the jazz record.  The editing is all done, and the cleanup mostly so; we\u2019re turning the corner to the actual mixes now.  Jay and I did a rough mix of one of the songs last weekend.  We still wanna finesse the reverbs, but it\u2019s sounding quite good already.  Being a jazz record the effects are pretty subtle, mainly just some light compression and EQ, plus a bit of pan and volume.  You hardly realize anything\u2019s been done until you go back and listen to the raw tracks.<\/p>\n<p>Michelle had a nice trip Austria, Switzerland and France, with the youth group from her church, centered around a week in a monastery.  I\u2019ve never been to the alps but it sure looks nice; I\u2019d love to go someday.  She came back with fifty euros worth of chocolate. Also her robotics team as school has state championships today.  If they win I guess she\u2019ll go to the nationals.<\/p>\n<p>Lizzy came home from school for a quick visit, mainly to see the musical at her old high school and hang out with friends.  I have a few projects around the house I\u2019d like get finished before spring comes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Believe it or not one, two, three weeks have gone by without anything new happening.
