Time so quickly passes by
Hours turn into seconds
Then, one day you realize
More past than future beckons
The harder that you try to squeeze
The more they pass away
A day turns quickly to a week
Minutes turn into days

I
own digital voice recorder now and I've been very lax about using it.
For this weekend's set, I tried to get a recording each day to describe
what's been going on during the week. This may become a regular thing.
I'm still learning how to use the damn thing and import files from it.
One basic adjustment I should make is tuning down the sensitivity on the
mic. I may also employ a sock or similar device to cut down on wind
noises.
