There is so much I need to do with so many different parts of my many projects. The next thing on my list is to get my job underway with a trip to Head Office in 90 minutes in order to get my photo ID. It’s been a while since I’ve had one of those. I also need to start my blogcast. Well, re-start it. But on a different account. It’ll just be me reading out my blog entries – and maybe adding the recording to my blog entries. I’ve yet to decide on that. But there won’t be any major flamboyance to these recordings.

I also need to still update (and/or schedule) my Instagram photo to cover my blogs. If I’m quick, I’ll be able to do something special with those by getting them married up with the audio versions. I’ll need to look at my to-do spreadsheet and maybe connect it all up on SmartSuite. At some point.
I also need to find my vocal sweet spot. Where I’ve been rearranging my writing desk/recording studio, the vocals don’t seem to be working very well. I may swap my Vocaster back to my JLab and see if that works any better without the interface. I also have an additional microphone I can also experiment with. The whole situation may be down to the set-up, the lay-out, the laptop or the settings but it just isn’t hitting it right, for me.
I have to book in a blood test for my diabetes, an eye test and at some time in my financial future, I need to see the dentist. I also wish to purchase new clothes for work. Or manage to fit back into my existing work clothes. It could be the turning point whereby I’m smart again and I get to wear sharp clothes once more. Look good, feel good. At weekends I’m generally wearing rugby tops or running tops plus my Coffee Pot Conversations hoodie. With summer arriving, the hoodie will be around my waist. My bedroom needs sorting out, clothes have to go, extras (ranging from cables to papers, random objects to undetermined items) need clearing out and getting shot of. I can’t access my wardrobes – I honestly don’t like living in the space I have. However, with all the clothes hanging up, it does help with the acoustic attributes required for recording the podcast. All in good time.
Oh, I also need to find the best bits of my first season and create an episode for them. As well as update my spreadsheet of chart positions (I’ve dropped out of Kyrgyzstan but am still in Qatar). One other thing I need to do is start thinking about what I’ll be packing for our 6-day visit to Paris in 73 days.
And maybe I’ll eat a few of the Lindt chocolates in the fridge…
