"Good" Tired
I'm exhausted, beat, tired, but overall happy, with the way things have been going lately. "Good" tired I call it. I've been so busy that I almost forgot I had a Hive account, and was determined to share something on it today, come Hell or high water, as they say.
I have a couple of new desks including an almost "V" shaped one and a standing desk that I've been putting together. Everyone who writes a lot should have one to avoid sitting too long, so I'm glad I now have it.
New mini computers, a couple of monitors and their associated boom arms (but not Meesterboom's arm! Which is currently "probing" a pretty intern or two! ;) all needed to be put together.
Putting It All Together
Picked up some new mics (a condenser and a dynamic) as well as a mixer or two. Almost invested in a vocal booth, but thought $399 was a bit too rich for my blood. Got a couple of those kits that can turn your laptop into three screens, but have yet to unbox them. Despite all that, I'm slowly assembling this podcasting/blogging studio bit by bit.
Also saw a microscope camera, and have yet to unbox it, along with a light box to take photos of little objects with and use them in my Hive posts. So yeah, there's a lot going on, but in a good way.
I've had several more people I just met tell me that I have a voice that would be good for podcasting. And while that's all nice and good, one must first narrow down a subject to talk about. So while I'm assembling all of this gear, I'm weighing my interests and will see where things land when the time comes.
But what I'm happiest about right now is that after three weeks, I was finally able to write another post on Hive. Twitter is my fire and brimstone place, but Hive is where I'm at peace and the most creative. Aren't you glad we have a place such as this? :)

Sounds like you been busy, man. Nice to hear of all the goodies you been up to. I definitely will a regular subscriber to your podcast, so let's make it fast:)
I'm not as brave as you! lol I'm still holding on to any excuse to put it off ("oh my, I was about to narrow down my pocasting subjects, but gotta go change the cat litter!) lol :)
Lol I do that too, I'm the procrastination queen 👑 Do it in your time, it will happen when it's meant to.
Haha I get like that myself. I’ve actually have some plans up my sleeves about something I wanted to start, but I’ve successfully procrastinated it to I don’t know when to start anymore. Lol we’ll make em happen eventually:)
Ooh that does sound exciting. A microscope with camera? Now I'm intrigued to see what you're going to photograph with it. I've got a dragonfly sitting on my desk that I desperately want to put under a microscope, especially their eyes.
It's good that you're getting things sorted on that end. Shit, I need a standing desk thingy too, I spend waaayyyy too much time sitting because I get sucked in.
Lol, I wonder if Boomy is going to read that 🤣
He reads everything!!! 😀
Lol, was wondering if you were going to pop in here 😁 Stop probing the interns hahaha
'The Essence of Boom' is everywhere! Floating throughout the ether like a spectral presence. Its essential ingredients are:
This powerful concoction when mixed to perfection and quaffed, will give you 'The Sight' but for a short time. Use it wisely! And you will see things as through the eyes of Meesterboom...

Crikey, that sounds quite awful. Maybe the sight isn't worth having! 🤣
That standing desk is awesome and really quiet when raising or lowering it, so you should absolutely get one.
A dragonfly would be awesome! Can you imagine being around millions of years ago when they hd a wingspan of 30 inches? Imagine a bunch of them flying around! :)

It seems like these standing desks are getting a lot of traction, maybe I need to build one.
Gosh, that would have been awesome, they are such prehistoric animals and beautiful to boot, I would have one as a pet!
Well, it seems like you will have a real cool setup. I looked into one of those microscope cameras, they are kind of cool. Look forward to when you get the new rig up and rolling. In the meantime, get you some reast and relaxation if you can.
Thanks. And yeah, I can't wait to break it out to see what it can do. Had an interesting Sunday with the floods on a bus. Took them over an hour to get to us as the water had seeped inside the bus. When we got on, we could see fallen trees floating in the streets. What a wild day! :)}
Wow! I have been seeing on the news where parts of the U.S. in the East have been getting flooded like crazy. Some of it is just chaos. Glad you are okay.
Mighty glad we have a place such as this 😁
Great job on your plans for a podcast, more grace.
