I wasn't intending to spend most of yesterday working on next week's ALChoon, but apparently that's what my head was in the mood for, so who am I to argue?
-=-=-
The tune actually came out better than I thought it would, but unfortunately isn't built around a recording.. Something I've been trying to do, for the Recorded album.
I really need to record more sounds, but. Kinda gets a bit boring in the bungalow. There's only so many fridges you can record squeaking!
I could probably rustle some paper, or bang objects around, but at what point am I just going "That'll make a drum" and kinda losing the whole point of what I was aiming for with this ALBum.
Hmmm.
I guess the point has already been lost, though. The song isn't built around a sample, so anything I find will just be overlayed after the fact, which is a shame.
It's a good tune, though, so that's ok!
Maybe I don't have to record something for EVERY song on the ALBum..?
Meanwhile...
My Aunt came down for a visit yesterday, and me and Mum walked up to the bus stop at the end of the estate, to meet her. We also took her back that way, too.
In all, I managed about 2,600 steps doing that, which is a nice number, and with the rest in-between I managed it fairly well.
We're thinking that two walks a day might be something to attempt in future, though if I'm honest, the past week has really been lacking in walks.
The noise and dust of last week's builders stuff seemed to impact my walking for almost an entire week, and that's not great.
Play it by ear, but the two-walk thing seemed like it might be doable.
Int. Coffee Shop - Afternoon
[Dave and Green are standing at the counter of a trendy coffee shop. The barista looks at them expectantly.]
Barista: What can I get for you gentlemen?
Green: I'll have an extra tall full fat latte with chocolate sprinkles, please.
Dave: Um.. I'll have a Coke!
Barista: [confused] Sir, we don't serve Coke here. This is a coffee shop.
Dave: [dramatically] It's got caffeine.
Green: [sighs] Dave, just order a coffee like a normal person.
Dave: Fine, fine. I'll have... a coffee. But can you make it taste like Coke?
[Scene Two]
Int. Coffee Shop - A few minutes later
[Dave and Green are seated at a table. Green is sipping his elaborate latte, while Dave stares suspiciously at his plain black coffee.]
Green: See, Dave? Isn't this nice? A bit of normality for once.
Dave: [poking his coffee with a spoon] I don't trust it. It's not fizzy enough.
Green: That's because it's coffee, Dave. Not everything needs to be carbonated.
Dave: [brightening up] Hey, maybe we could make a carbonated version of BurrowOffice! Fizzy spreadsheets!
Green: [facepalming] No Dave. This is just about coffee. We're relaxing, chilling, taking it easy and not worrying about the Office.
Dave: Chilled like a can of...
Green: Stop it.
[Scene Three]
Int. Coffee Shop - Later
[Dave is now surrounded by empty sugar packets, clearly having tried to sweeten his coffee to Coke-like levels. Green looks on in dismay.]
Dave: You know, Greenie, this isn't half bad.
Green: Except that's not coffee anymore. That's a diabetic coma in a cup.
Dave: [excitedly] Maybe this is our new angle for BurrowOffice! We could market it to coffee shops!
Green: [skeptically] And how exactly would that work?
Dave: Picture this: "BurrowOffice: For when your caffeine level isn't high enough to get through boring spreadsheets!"
Green: I'm gonna need more coffee.
[End credits roll with Dave trying to convince the barista to let him install BurrowOffice on their espresso machine, while Green quietly apologizes to the other customers]
