Friday Burnout
We’ve reached the end of another week, xmas is drawing closer every day along with our looming deadline, it seems like we completely skipped autumn this year and have jumped straight into a freezing winter.
I’ve been finding it quite hard to switch off recently, there are always ideas and thoughts mulling over in my mind and it’s really starting to tire me out. I love what I do, I think that maybe why it’s always on my mind but I think I need to learn how to get away from it, have a break and stop thinking about work for a few hours a day.
What to do to unwind or take your mind off work?
On a huge tangent, my mum has starting using instant messaging, which is pretty cool. What I’ve noticed from only talking to my mum verbally for 22 years is how different she seems on MSN, I can’t fit the words to her voice, it really seems like a completely different person.
Makes me wonder what i sound like to other people, and how different it is to actually talking to me.. something for you to ponder, do you type like you talk?
And one last question.. I’m trying to get a microphone that I can use to record meetings with, the kind of one lots of people can sit around and talk into and that will work with my Macbook plus it a reasonable price. Any suggestions?
well about the sounding different thing, i sometimes record my guitar and singing, and i hate the way i sound back when playing back to myself.
on the microphone front, check out www.studiospares.com theyve got lots of microphones for sound recording

oh and the “unwind and relax” part, i usually find a nice leisurely stroll a good way to unwind. yes, i know its freezing outside and you will freeze your ass just going outside, but i still do

you definitely want a USB microphone. i don’t know if there are many boundary USB microphones for a good price.
I think the safest best would be going with a cheap USB mixing board and a pretty good analog mic.
