The Sleepless Moons

tcr! · Jan 11, 2023 at 10:59 pm

Video (MP4): 20230111 - The Sleepless Moons

Audio (MP3): 20230111 - The Sleepless Moons

It’s an older, original song but it still checks out 🚀 definitely share this with your friends 👽

I am ready to go back to outer space. It’s my place, recognize the faces, the foreign shapes. I know the people of my race. And you are catching there at home plate and I’m clear off in left field. Not at the second stupid base waiting to make a double play. I’m out in orbit waving goodbye as I rocket far away.

Rain delay. Too much dumb, damn static in our game. Can’t hear the signals, too much atmosphere. Houston, we have a problem: I’m burning up here. Arm’s singed to rubber. Bottom of the ninth and I’m patrolling Pluto.

The only way to win…

Lover, you just never knew what it was like to kick around in my shoes, sleep with my childhood rules learned in Sun, Sunday school. And I won’t count the sleepless moons I tried to appeal them for you. The shoes are broken in, the fans have gone. The laces are long, the currents are strong and I could drown in my freezing swimming, swimming pool.

Behind in the count. Risky day for lift off, stars dealigned. Three balls and two strikes, zero gravity. Jammed comms, windshield cracked from your impact. Who’s that in the dugout? Guess I struck out. Broken hearts hemisphere.

Tears in space…

i love it! especially the end when you’re spinning around in the chair 😁🔭 your singing voice sounds very different from your speaking voice. if you didn’t tell me i might not have guessed it was you

tcr! tcr! · Jan 11, 2023 at 11:07 pm

I think that’s why it’s so hard for me to hear my singing voice played back to me. It sounds like a completely different person.

mitch mitch · Jan 11, 2023 at 11:08 pm

i agree, but i don’t think it sounds bad at all

Everything happens too much

tcr! · Jul 4, 2022 at 9:58 am

This is the final version of what I’ve been painting the last few weeks. The quote is something I wrote on my bathroom wall way back in 2014 when everything was so much.

Everything happens too much full

A few strokes I forgot to do, but whatever. I’m sick of it being on my dining room table. 😊

My experience with OneDrive’s new Files On-Demand on macOS

tcr! · Jan 30, 2022 at 10:04 am

For years I have happily been giving Microsoft $69.99 a year for a 365 subscription. That all changed today when the latest version of the OneDrive Mac app decided to remove all 148 gigs of files off of my Mac.

Yeah, they’re sync’ed up to OneDrive’s cloud servers, but the simple fact that they took them off my Mac is unforgivable. I had to manually download all 148 gigs to get my Mac back to where it was last night.

For some reason OneDrive decided that it would remove over 140 gigs of pictures and documents from my Mac and make them online only, something about “Files On-Demand” or whatever. Do you know what I demand? My files to be on Mac where I left them. Nobody told me when I upgraded OneDrive that this was going to happen, that my files would be moved, or ANYTHING even remotely close to that. This is a complete failure on Microsoft’s part. I trust you with my files. NEVER AGAIN.

I take it off my programs and just upload to Google Drive. Sometimes my computer would slow down, and it was One Drive syncing.

This seems similar to what Google is doing to my fourcookies.com domain email. For over 10+ years I have had email though my domain in the Free G Suite option with Google. This year they are moving to paid plans, because google needs the money, which for 4 email addresses = about $300 bucks which is massively expensive for personal email. In April I will have to migrate about 5 inboxes to my domain registrar’s email which is about 30 bucks a year. I understand your pain.

Scott and I got sober in early 90s together, lived together for a handful of years during that era, too. A few of you guys from Iowa knew him well during those years. In the late 90s our lives took different paths and we were never as close, but I’ll always be grateful for the good times my brother and I shared.

Pandemic Violins

Audio (MP3): 20201226 - Pandemic Violins

Video (MP4): 20201226 - Pandemic Violins

It’s winter in a pandemic. It’s Christmas time. I’m on vacation. I sit and write and record music. After listening to The Beatles sing about Eleanor Rigby on a two hour loop, I got hooked on violins stabbing and stomping about. The music sounds best with headphones.

Nothing happens in the video. I needed something visual because most of the social medias don’t do just audio. The footage is public domain and fairly boring.
