My last nerve

When she was frustrated, mom would say she was on her last never. That's what today was like for me.

First, a day of technical difficulties. Lost two radio interviews because of a failing USB flash drive. Staples wants $400 to retrieve the data. I've already set the stage to eat crow and redo the interviews. I'd rather spend the money on a new microphone and take the show on the road.

And I forgot to retrieve about 10 minutes of the show when I was in Hartford early in the day. Had to go back and get that. <sigh>

Then Audition was giving me problems. Then I couldn't upload to the FTP from any of my Macs. Finally uploaded the radio show from my son's PC (and I questioned his decision to get a PC over a Mac!)

Yeah, I'm talking tech, but it's like any job - one of those days where everything goes wrong. You can relate.

Second,  my daughters decided to have a shouting match that I tried to ignore - until it came to blows. Took an hour to settle that down.

<sigh>

Next up: get ready for Saturday's class.

Again, I say: <sigh>
