It's been a week

nyykiOkay, a lot got done last week. The garage is in much better shape, my desk area is still in process but things are pretty much where they will live moving forward, and I found my ribbon microphone I bought from @.
My big tasks for the week are wiping down the 16x4 100' audio snake to get all the mud off it from when it was exposed to the elements and mud daubers nested on it, Finish getting my audio interface into the six space rack by my left shoulder, go through a few more crates in the garage and with luck locate my Mr. Coffee tea machine and European food processor, and maybe meet with a friend so she can show me a cool performance interface from Ableton. I also want to get a hold of my tech guy to get him over here to fix some things and get the mess in the Zen Room dealt with if I have time.
Chances are good I won't have any editing going on this week --lanalucy started a new job and she's going to take a couple of weeks to acclimate to the new work load, though my Brainz submission is done and we may squeeze that in somewhere.
I'm still not feeling like I've got formatting down on DW – is there a tutorial that goes through a wide array of things I can do here? And how much of the things I downloaded about LJ are still relevant here?
I got a hold of my state representative's office, and the nice lady I talked to there is contacting possibilities to get my roof and bathroom ceiling fixed; that's maybe in motion, and I'll be happy to have my bathroom back.
Other than that, not much going on here.

Trying to have something to say to all the bits.

I’m glad you might soon be able to find your tea machine in time for summer, but sad that your editor is probably running her pants off like the proverbial liar whose trousers are on fire. That’s always an interesting unfun thing.
DW’s HTML can do a lot of things, let me find the page guide. https://www.dreamwidth.org/support/faqbrowse?faqid=155 there you go!

Date: 2026-04-07 04:08 am (UTC)I spoke with her tonight to find out how the first day of work went. On the up side the workplace is way cool and the people there are too. On the not so up side the site they're working is an hour and a half away from the office, but that's paid time for the travel. The work didn't run her batteries down all the way, so this may be a good thing all around. We'll do the editing for my submission for this month, as that's not going to take long at all (it's only a thousand words, on the nose).
I'll investigate that link -- I want to up my game here a bit.
It's something people don't think about as a resource, but calling the state rep's office is great for this kind of stuff, because the people who work there are like bureaucracy ninjas, doing their ninjitsu for their constituents' benefit.
Now if I can find the remaining stuff I've been looking for...
