songwriting, troubleshooting and drumming

I have been up to all 3 of these in various degrees. It has been a very rough ride adding some new techie bits to my pajamas kit. Despite taking some heavy casualties (in the way of hours spent fixing things) it appears there is good reason for optimism. The reason? My buffer runneth not over, or under for that matter. Crazy techie world we live in. It seems updating and renewing and adding the latest greatest is not always trouble free. As it stands I am now prepared and I believe I heard a gauntlet drop. Was that the throwing down of the gauntlet?
