First! That pro-bono recording-restoration project<\/a> I mentioned a week or so ago? The one with the interview with Buck O\u2019Neil, of the Kansas City Monarchs of the old Negro American League?<\/p>\n

I heard back from James today:<\/p>\n

For the record, Bob Kendrick with the NLBM [Negro League Baseball Museum]<\/i> said the audio is outstanding.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Awesome. This makes me happy. I’m really pleased they found it potentially usable. It’s the first time I’ve done this sort of work, and I’m really glad they liked the result. I hope they find a use for it.<\/p>\n

Second: the allergy testing<\/a> went fine; I’m much less allergic to grass than I used to be. Thank you, allergy shots.<\/p>\n

And finally, the latest follow-up appointment to have my eyes checked again as I continue to recover from two rounds of emergency eye surgery a couple of months ago<\/a> also went well; they told me get out and don’t come back for eight weeks, and that my vision is up to 20\/25 with lenses on.<\/p>\n

I have to tell you, I’d’ve thought 20\/25 would be a lot better than this. But apparently, it’s not. Wow.<\/p>\n

I’d also talk about the meetings earlier this week<\/a>, but I can’t. Yet. I can say that something very cool and exciting came out of them, I just can’t say what. Hopefully I’ll be able to say more in a couple of months.<\/p>\n

But it’s cool, and exciting. Hee hee hee. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

I’ll be at the Welcome to Night Vale<\/i> show at the Neptune tonight. Say hi, if you see me. Say hi, if you don’t see me. Say hi, to the faceless old woman who secretly lives in your home. You won’t know for sure that she heard you. But she did. She did.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
