coming soon
Thought I would quickly make a brief post updating everyone on updates, ytwd radio, my schedule for this week, and Jackson.
Come on - you didn’t seriously think I didn’t realize that most of you are wondering about Jackson, did you? I know who carries this blog and holds all of your affections in his little dirty paw!
First things first. It’s taking me awhile to figure out this whole podcast thingee. Seems the most simple part was figuring out audacity and adding tracks and actually talking. LOL. There is quite a bit more that I need to do - and it seems I completely didn’t take all of those other factors into account. I apologize. While I could just throw up a link here and have you listen as you did to the introduction - I really don’t like doing things like that. It doesn’t look the way I want it to - and the other alternatives would take more effort than I currently have the time to take. There is a bday celebration that is due to start in about 2 hours, and I have been spending this entire weekend on this project. CeCe needs to buy a card, purchase a present, and be part of the family for the evening. At least for a few hours. So … sorry that I broke my promise of the YTWD Radio jumping off on Monday. While it will jump off sometime soon, I hope, this monday is not the “sometime” I had originally planned on. My apologies.
Which brings me to my schedule. I usually try to log in on Mondays by 8:00PM. Due to the aforementioned bday Celebration I will be logging in later. Probably around 11:00PM - though I could show up a tad bit earlier. Count on me by 11:00PM and no one will be disappointed, okay? 
At the risk of sounding really …. emotional (?) let me just end this post. I’m so disappointed that I couldn’t follow through on this project. Even though I know that eventually I’ll be able to deliver it to you - I still feel like I’ve made yet one more promise that I haven’t followed through on. I hate that I have become that kind of a person to ‘you’.
I will be on tonight and ready to work. Don’t worry - I’ll be in a much more upbeat mood. LOL. Just having one of those moments - and felt that expressing it here so I could let it go would be appropriate.
Oh - wait - Jack. He’s fine. His stitches are still in - he’s chewed through 2 things of value so far (and counting) and is currently napping at my feet looking all innocent and white (though he hasn’t had a bath since the operation and can’t until the stitches “dissolve”) and reminding me how lucky I am to have him. He’s brought a lot of joy to my life - which is really much more valuable than anything his teeth find to destroy. At least that’s what I keep trying to tell myself. *wink*

“I’m so disappointed that I couldn’t follow through on this project.”
I don’t think this means what you think it means. You missing a deadline doesn’t mean you wont follow through …
But thanks for letting us know it’s much better than not knowing!
What you’re finding out is that all this internet crap takes some schooling. If your intro podcast is any indication you’ve got a definite grip on making the podcast. Now you’re in the next step of figuring out exactly how you want to distribute these things etc and you hit a snag. Your innate perfectionism when it comes to customer service won’t allow you to, “throw up a link here and have you listen” ’cause I’ll bet the podcast is done it’s just some of the wrapping needs to be there.
And ‘the wrapping’ is important and does need to be there.
::shrug:: Listen, I’ve talked to you about this podcast business on calls and a bit in IM. I know you’ve been working your ass off on it, you’re almost there!
In fact, I can see one of your problems right now. Come here, those jeans are just far too tight on you to allow for healthy creative ‘flow.’ Yep Tiffers is taking them off you this INSTANT. OH MY! mmmmmmm yummy … I am so calling you, but you already knew that didn’t you? ::giggle::
Bang on Celina Cumbalina - can’t wait!!!
