 Griffin and Kae are in town. We recorded the last necessary voice for the radio play with him, and then William recorded a huge loop scene for Griffin's feature film.

Party night


 I spent twelve hours editing audio today for the radio play. While I wanted to stay in the groove, I also wanted to do a bit of holiday stuff. We headed to Carle Steele's place for a mix of in and outdoor fun as they burned stuff in the fire. Then we headed to the Truszkowski's for some wonderful cakes and squares. Running a bit late on both so we headed home in time for me to edit another two hours. 

Worst advent calendar ever


 Margaret ordered this for me so that I could open up a miniature camera. Not only did it arrive almost three weeks late, but .... oh my god, I don't know what to say. William articulates it better. Watch his unboxing video:

Allan for supper

Allan is heading out of town for the break to visit friends and family as usual. We caught up with him over some steaks (too cold to bbq but did so anyway) as well as attending Ayesha's reading of her play at the university.

Radio Drama recording


Over the past couple of weeks, Geremy, William, and I have been writing a radio drama for a bird people chrismas special to air on CJTR. We started recording voices a few days ago, but hit our peak today with half the voices covered in the studio. Pictured here are Jon Tewksbury (two voices) and Thomas Parham. Earlier today was Ken Wilson. William recorded three of his own today, and two of mine. It will air on the evening of the 24th at 6:00 pm on 91.3 fm in Regina.

Decorate tree and purchase new fish



Tree up, watered, and decorated. Bought a new molly at Pat's Pets. Our prior one died. The guy at Pet Smart would not sell me a fish because my ten gallon tank is the right size for just my cat fish. He doesn't care that my cat fish is sociable because it is labeled as "slightly aggressive". Since I had an early catfish die of anxiety when left alone too long, I reject his assessment.  I walked out of that store and won't shop there again.

Coffee with mom



Coffee with mom today. Drove around to about five places trying to find things open but, being Monday, many coffee shops and most art galleries are closed. Found a place, but ultimately had most of our conversation n the car. 

Bought a tree over a week ago and finally brought it in this evening.
