Was up lateish. Gassy again and failed to get cleaned. Got hit by cramps in my leg as sometimes happens. Invented a bamboo flute TAB notation which may be easier to read because the human mind isn't trained on chicken scratches but on more shapely forms. Tried to play Songbird by KG and failed miserably. So my YouTube vlog begins...
Will run in the afternoon and work out at night. Probably need to loo again sometime later. My Seiko 5 Sports gained 7s over the past 24 hours, including a long walk, otherwise it's more towards 6s / day. I notice it needs to be wound sufficiently to be accurate.
Still gassy but am getting there. Cramp is almost gone. Most of my activities will be shifted to night time due to the morning's persecution. Westerners forcing the Liew witches onto me, just a poorly Christian guy with no powers to defend.
In fact, most of my days were spent under the thumb of evil / wicked people -and this from when I was a baby / child / teenager. Now I'm middle-aged and the thing is more severe, nearing the judgement of Christ. Should talk on this soon in the mindspaces.

Managed to loo okay. Took a shower. Changed my towel and am in fresh clothes. Did kitchen duty with Mom. We made cauliflower and potato mash with salt and sour cream. I poached the salmon and dressed it with olive oil, garlic, ginger and soy. Also poached a soft egg for Mom who has a sore lip today somehow. I also have a tongue ulcer but it's not serious.
Did some sound and video checks with Cinema FV-5 and my AKG Ara mic. Got decent video but I think the audio lacks punch. I'll be late yet again. At least my notation is good to go. First blow is the hardest, yea, Rodney.
Cooling off in air conditioning as it's humid -rained heavily but for a short while. Need to work out by 8pm. Tomorrow, I'll go on a long walk to the downtown mall or maybe somewhere else, not sure. Thought of running earlier but was waylaid by gas, then the humid rain fell and Dad called me to the kitchen. Not sure how many tweaks it'll take to get my mic playing well with my video setup. Or am I blowing the flute wrong?
...
I did more soundchecks and it seems my blowing technique is too forceful and the membrane too taut. Failure #1. Worked out tho, and am feeling energized. Yea, lots of my plans may fail but they're kinda fun to start anyway. But it's time for meds and sleep this rainy Malaysian night.
Want to try ecasound.
