Yeah, I know, I know, everybody’s watching the Super Bowl instead. But I’ve still done it, did most of it in the afternoon because I had a date tonight, finished up-then did an edit after saving the initial mp3 file because the news had literally just broken of Adam Rippon’s withdrawal, and it’s up: January 28-February 3, 2013
I’m amazed I finished with this one. Starting Friday because Saturday I did pretty much nothing but watch skating, getting depressed enough about the men’s results I didn’t want to report about it, and briefing freaking out when the computer wouldn’t recognize I had the microphone plugged in until I had pulled it in and out several times. But finished in time to enjoy a little Johnny Weir on Food Network: January 21-27, 2013

By the way, anyone know a good freeware audio editor? I’m about to run out a free trial and trying to find one earlier really did drive me bats. I need it to be able to perform simple tasks, such as attaching .wma files to each other consecutively(which Audacity seemed strangely unable to do…), and then have sections removed. Being able to amplify(I actually amplified the Medal Winners open section on this file, first time I’ve ever done that) and tell exactly where in the timeline certain sounds are would be good bonuses. Meanwhile, I at least had the trial software for the all important Grand Prix week episode: May 21-27, 2012
