And, of course, as soon as I fell comatose into bed, Mom said that a friend showed up. I guess they stayed quite awhile, glancing every so often toward the door to my bedroom that sits at one end of a balcony span overlooking the great room. But I was far gone into oblivion, literally banked by a protective passel of cats, Laddie, the dog, snoozing away, guard-of-the-door.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I didn&#8217;t get more than the necessities done yesterday. I couldn&#8217;t. I was wobbling on my feet with exhaustion. But it was a happy, productive weekend, which is nice. We actually rehearsed, recorded, and successfully video recorded Forrest&#8217;s arrangement of <em>Black Hole Sun<\/em> by Soundgarden&#8217;s Chris Cornell. Then I compiled the video.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It took five-and-a-half hours to put the video together, and, that, for me, is miracle fast, because I usually spend at least three days compiling them.\u00a0 I wanted it done by the time Forrest woke, so pulled an all nighter after getting house and hold battened down for the night.\u00a0 And I managed it &#8212; just. On render, there&#8217;s only one not-so-glaring mistake &#8212; quite a feat when you&#8217;re doing something on-the-fly.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The response to it has been lackluster, but that&#8217;s okay. We&#8217;re happy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While yesterday was recovery, today I&#8217;m feeling like &#8216;the day after&#8217;. You know the feeling, I&#8217;m sure. Over-indulgence in anything carries an aftermath of echoed requite.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So, meanwhile, here&#8217;s our version of <em>Black Hole Sun<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><center>[arve url=&#8221;https:\/\/youtu.be\/6z1wLn0NIFQ&#8221; \/]<\/center><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A whirlwind weekend &#8212; rehearsal, recording, videography &#8212; the resulting video a tribute to a rock star recently passed.\u00a0 Long hours, long days, longer nights, then Monday.
