I'd forgotten how much fun doing podcast interviews can be when I don't spend most of the conversation terrified that it won't record: bowled over by the ease of the Mac Mini and the Scarlett, the anticlimactic "test / check" that lasted all of two seconds because it just WORKS; hopefully this relief translates into being open to doing more TSR conversations and, in so doing, continuing to grow and refresh my interview chops.

Ebbing of the terror had another effect this morning: dug out a project that had been in various stages of work and mothballs for the last decade or so and finally cracked it and, unless the next workchunk yields caution, have found a near-final version of a prelude. Nice to have see a glimmer of creative ability once more; I needed this little victory.

The day awaits.
