As if a synthesizer wasn't enough.

I finally invested in an audio interface. And have temporarily (permanently, probably) set up a "recording studio" in my teeny tiny room. Kyle and I spent a good chunk of the day figuring out a lot of pretty basic stuff in Pro Tools LE. Note for the future: there's an important distinction between an audio track and a instrument track. But things are up running smoothly for the time being.

Check it out.





Recording related stuff aside, it was a good day. It started out with me reading a little bit more of "Norwegian Wood," and then I slept for 9 hours (that never happens!). I went for a run today against the cries of my legs, but the 5 miles did me good and I ended up being less sore afterward than I was before. A short time later I was reminded how awful holiday shopping for my immediate family is. Judging by the results, it looks like the rest of the Cohens are going to have more Longhorn pride than I do.



Audrey and Lauren had me over for dinner. Which was appropriately garlicky. We watched a movie called "Lars and the Real Girl." It was a cute movie, but kind of unbelievable. And definitely one of those movies we provided a lot of commentary on and clever remarks about throughout. Maybe I'd suggest it, probably not though.

I should go to sleep. It's 12:25am and I am giving someone a ride to the airport at 4:00am.

I will now leave you with a picture I took outside the co-op on the way to one of my TuThurs 8AMs this past semester.
