So I'm back after getting incredibly depressed and dangerously sick (coughing up blood and going to the emergency room), so hi!
Anyways, I got a box earlier this week, and its been sitting there, taunting me with its mysterious insides...
Welcome back! And in light of the twang thing, we're always here for you

It's here!!!
(as pictured under the also yet to be "opened" corrugated cardboard cat tree)
Haven't decided if I'm going to wait until the 25th to open everything. Satan - if there's perishables or stuff with catnip that kittens will want to steal in the middle of the night that I should open sooner rather than later, lemme know.
Wrapping had split on the food gifts, looks like neat stuff the wife will dig - awesome.
Also looks like one of the small gifts lights up if you hold/touch/squeeze it right. If it's what I think it is, the cats and I say

Nothing, I swear! I almost got pneumonia and basically laid in bed coughing and hacking up pus for almost four weeks.
Jesus dude I'm glad you're doing better now. I hadnt seen you around lately, was hoping you were ok. & obviously I think indulging in yr SS gift will help you feel even better

The temptations! I'm trying to stay good and not open it up until Xmas... It's hard.

Yeah, it took me some reading to find out what happened... It's always sad when that happens. I try to talk to a bunch of people before I do anything though. Talking does help.

Here's a recording of my first testing of the LAL Misty cave on the piano, wish I turned the mix higher, but it sounded a lot more prominent in my headphones. Piano is dry, just a bit of EQ and compression. There's some midi Organ and choir towards the end too.

so about a month or so ago, I got this in the mail, from denton, tx. I have the note somewhere in a drawer, but basically I was informed that because I was a motherfucker who opened last year's gift early, this was sent to tide me over until december. At first I figured my ss was from texas, until I realized the company that makes this, electro lobotomy, is from there.
Then a couple days ago I got this and it all made sense. Who's crazy enough to send pre-gifts and then giant gifts? None other than our resident Norway fuzzheads, in this case Eivind August. I went through the box like a 5 year old, ripping packaging and yelling like a fool to myself at all the incredible things:
the note here explains that the flash drive is stuffed with films to check out:
I should note that each gift came with a little rhyming couplet explaining what it was. Truly a poet of the ages:
my interest in 'subtle modulation' was met with...shall we say, 'retaliation':
The pedals are fantastic (yeah even the DOD, I've got good plans for that thing), the food is great, the book/flash drive films perfect, and the cardigan is honestly my favourite part, haha. Blown away by it all.

Hell Yes they are! Mine just came today, from bob the r0bot!!!
This stuff is great! The WC is one of those pedals I've always wanted to play with but never got around to, so THANK YOU and well done! Also, excellent wrapping paper, and I cannot wait to have the beer tonight!
