An Escort Would Be Cheaper! (Not Like I Know)
When I tell them my sad story, they laugh as politely as possible and tell me to dump the Radio Shark / Mickey Mouse stuff and buy a real mic. After they explained why the Radio Shark setup didn't work, we started talking about my needs (budget) and they steered me to a kick-ass mic. It would be perfect for a startup, semi-pro podcast like mine.
The mic is called a Snowball and is made by BlueMic. It's made specifically for podcasts... it's a cardioid (unidirectional), condenser mic (with omnidirectional capabilities), has a USB connection (so low-levels aren't a problem), comes with a small stand, and most importantly... LOOKS VERY COOL!
"Sign me up" I say and nearly die when I'm have to fork over $150 for this wonderful contraption. OMFG! Budget? We don't need no stinking budget!
Well, I get it home, gingerly unpack it, hook it up, and... sit and visually admire it for an hour. Hey, for $150 I want to get as much stimulation outta this thing as possible! Then I launch Audacity, start recording, and the mic completely lives up to it's reputation. No noise, warm and pleasing sound, great recording levels. I'll treat this thing like a rock star autograph on my bare breast... admire it often and never, ever wash it.
So I now have a mic that work's like a charm and looks killer too. Kinda like me?

First Time's A Charm. Yeah, Right!
After purchasing my new, super-expensive, super-professional mic equipment from Radio Shark, I rushed home to try it all out. Unpacked it, put it together, hooked it up, and even spit polished the entire setup to give it that really professional look.
It totally sounded like shit. WTF? Apparently, the soundcard on my laptop wasn't built to handle a super-expensive, super-professional mic. Every time I recorded my voice in Audacity the sound level was sub-terrainian low. And when I used Audacity's "gain" control to bump up the level, all the background hum and shit got bumped up as well making it sound even worse. I even tried using Window's "mic boost" option to no avail. Shit.
The more expensive stuff is, the more better it's supposed to work, right? Yeah right.

Think Pink
Yes, you're right, Jenn. It's cherry blossom season again. You have spectacular timing. I was just thinking about that entry yesterday. And thanks for the compliment, by the way.
Two years after the fact and I'm still so glad to finally have had enough sense and moreover, STRENGTH to walk away and stay away. No ill wishes. I'm just relieved to have come out the other side in more or less one piece. I have no idea what has happened with MW since then because once I said goodbye for good, that was it. [Next!]
The world I live in now is so radically different. After I gave up on dating and trying to find true love, my life shifted gears in a way that was completely unexpected. Fortunately, everything fell into place. Yes, I'm quiet now, but all is still very well. I could share my new pursuits here and write about the details of my days, but this simply isn't the place for it. That, and I mostly keep to myself these days (unless I'm working, in which case, it's imperative that I be chatty and engaging).
Here's hoping you're doing well, too.

Love at Christmas
Hi there...I want to tell you about my love story. I have been on imachup for a couple of years and have dated a few local people that were just not for me and then a wonderful man named Ryan sent me a letter. I didn‘t respond immediately, but after he had sent me a couple of letter, I responded. We chatted on-line for a while and then by phone. he came to the salon I worked at and I cut his hair. December 25th, 2004 was our first date. my children were going to their father‘s and my family and I had already had our Christmas. Ryan was the perfect Christmas present. I thank God every day for sending me this wonderful man. We were married on Sept. 5th, 2006.....had our reception, this past Saturday, Oct. 14th and went on a short honeymoon. I just want to say that do not be discouraged; meeting the perfect person can and will happen when God wants it to and meeting on a dating site isn‘t a strange way of meeting...internet dating is just another means to meet someone special just for you!! Thank you imatchup for providing the means....Sincerely, Shauna....aka..ivprincess

Can You Hear Me Now?
While there, I seriously consider the extremely high-tech Universal Cassette Recorder Microphone for the outrageous price of $9.99 . After lots of internal debate, I decide that I need something better and settle on the Super-Cardioid Dynamic Microphone for fifty buckaroo's. That's about the top end of my budget but I figured I'd have to spend something to get the PERFECT podcast.
Of course, I have to get the obligatory accessories like a Desk Mic Stand, Large Acoustic-Foam Microphone Windscreen, and 1/4" Stereo Jack to 1/8" Stereo Plug Headphone Adapter. Total is about $68. Hey, you gotta pay to play, right?

Another Thought Straight Out of Left Field
My blinker is broken again. Arggggh! I would swear I replaced both blinker bulbs no more than 6 months ago because they stopped working within two weeks of each other.
Anyway, the really weird thing is, I've noticed that in my travels, I make about three times as many left turns as I do right turns.
Bizarre. Just bizarre.

My Match up!
What seems like a few days ago was over a year ago close to two. I met the love of my life Melyssa. It was weird how we met though I messaged a profile seemingly innocently. Well honestly I poured my heart out that she looked like the perfect girl for me and that she was gorgeous and I just had this great feeling that we could be something special. When she wrote me back I was shocked and we hit it off very very well. So well that with in a matter of weeks I went to go see her. It was a whirl wind romance and I got sucked right up. I never knew that love could be this intense. After six short weeks of knowing each other we got married and four months later we found out that she was pregnant. She had gotten pregnant a week after we married! We have been married now for going on two years its been tough at times, but I never felt better about being with anyone in my life. Here it is the 26th of September 2006 and she‘s pregnant yet again with our child. I couldn‘t be happier. I am scared of what the future may hold for us because I have a few medical issues mostly my heart. But as long as there is a breathe in my body I will be honored to be with her. Thank you Imatch up. You changed my life and completed my soul. Thank you from the bottom of my heart thank you!

Now What?
So I grab my thinking cap, start writing, and here's what I come up with:
My Podcast
Possible tag lines:
- "Pump Up the Podcast"
- "Flying's Not Dangerous... Crashing Is!"
- "Online Dating On Ice"
Audience: Twenty-something's to thirty-something's (in general)
Format:
- Approx 30 min's per show
- Atmosphere = comedic, satirical, hard (similar to movie "Pump Up the Volume")
- Two topics per show
- One guest every third show
- E-mail bag
- Explicit rating (of course!)
Topics:
- Net-dating (adventures, web site comparisons)
- Comedic failures in relationships (no names of course)
- Returning to college
- New adventures in Second Life (possibly w/SL friends as guests)
- My quirky personality (eating one thing at a time, reading the last page first of a new book, simultaneous driving and watching overhead airplanes)
- Living in the D.C. area (shitty dating scene, road rage, up-tight ppl)
- Hair going grey (all over!)
- Dreams of flying
Frequency: Monthly on average (find out how to avoid pod-fading)
Production:
- Voice Recording
- Laptop
- Audacity
- Mic (which one? must be cheap!)
- Spit screen?
- Quiet, controlled location?
- On-the-go recording?
- Music
- GarageBand.com
- Others?
- Mix Down: Audacity
- Hosting: ???!
- Publishing/Listing: ???!
And that's as far as I got. Quite a bit for 182 hrs worth of thinking, huh? Actually it was more like two.
So now that I have the PERFECT master plan, I can being podcasting, right? I could but first I decide to give close friends and family a chance to review my PERFECT master plan. Where's my Constructive Criticism Super Immunity Cape?

More Cheap Thrills
I'm not exactly what you'd call a technology freak. To give you an idea of how just how out of step I am with the rest of the world, I still have the same 13" color TV that I got as a gift when I moved out of my parent's house 23 years ago, and it's still my only TV. Since I don't have cable, I get a total of three channels on a good day and that's plenty for me.
As far as the Internet goes, yes, I have it, but I'm still using dial-up. Why? Why not? It's slower than molasses, but it does the job and that's good enough to cover my basic needs.
Which brings me to my cell phone. I can't remember the last time I got a new one. Let it suffice to say, mine looks something like a metallic blue brick. And it's just about as useful as one, too.
So today, after putting it off for as many years as I possibly could, I wandered into a wireless phone store determined to come out with a low budget pay as you go plan AND bite the bullet and get a more up-to-date phone. (Because I have to tell ya, there's nothing more embarrassing than squeezing my little handbag too tight under my arm which in turn pushes the key pad on my phone and inevitably ends up dialing someone I really, really don't want to speak to. 'Nough said.)
Salesman #1 was an idiot. When I admitted that I was totally clueless about cell phones, then asked him what would best suit my simple requirements, he waved his hand toward the vast wall of technology in front of us and said: "Any one of those.", and promptly walked away.
[Oooo, hey thanks, genius.]
Salesman #2 was infinitely more helpful and came running up from the back of the store after glaring at Salesman #1. He seemed to know a lot more about the phones, but more importantly, he was willing to SHARE that knowledge with me and patiently answered all my questions. As it turns out, he was the Assistant Store Manager. [Ah ha!]
Unfortunately, I ran out of time before I could make up my mind, so I had to toddle off to my appointment, however, I was determined to come back afterwards and make my final decision. [This story is a lot longer than I thought it would be, but stay with me. I'm getting there.]
True to my intentions, I did show up later that afternoon, ready and willing to walk out of there with a shiny new phone that weighed less than ten pounds and had a flip top cover. Salesman #3 (more specifically saleswoman] was the one who closed the deal. Not only did she know a boatload about the phones and the myriad of different plans available, but she knew specific details about all of their unique features -- even more than the Assistant Store Manager knew. I explained that all I really needed was a phone that could take pictures since when I'm out and about, it would be far easier to snap a quick pic than to make written notes and sketch details on paper.
And that's exactly what I got. But it's super slim, it's digital instead of analog, has a large color screen instead of a small, monotone green one, and OHMYGOD! you can take videos with sound, check e-mail and REPLY to them on the spot, do Google searches, listen to music, watch news clips, even enter appointments with alarms! And all this for a silly low price which included the phone, a car charger, TWO portable travel chargers (I didn't want a case) and this neat wireless headset!!! Plus a rebate for another $70 off of all of that!!!
For the rest of the afternoon and well into this evening, I was as giddy as a 3-year-old with a case of chocolate bars. I won't tell you how many photos or videos I took, or how many times I logged in and checked my e-mail or the weather forecast. Even just PUSHING THE BUTTONS was fun. The keypad on my old phone was so stiff that you practically had to break your fingers to get it to dial. Unless, of course, it was in my handbag, and then it would dial whoever and whenever it wanted to with very little assistance from me.
So needless to say, yet again, I'm a happy camper.
Oh, and on a final note, since everything else was going bye-bye, I figured I'd do myself a favor and ditch my old number, too. It's just onemore great way to make sure that what now lives in the past STAYS in the past.
Hallelujah for cheap thrills!
