Here's a little digital art thingy I made
So, I was going to post a Splinterlands song that I created today, but technology won't let me.
I use Pro Tools. When you purchase software (sound libraries) they go on an ilok, which is like a key.
It's a way for software companies to prevent people from stealing software.
When I open up Pro Tools it crashes because the ilok website is down. This has never happened before and I assume it is Covid related.
So, I can't access any of my music because an external site is down.
I knew I should have recorded each of those midi tracks to audio, but I can't even get Pro Tools to open so I guess it doesn't matter anyway.
I have an older version of Pro Tools that uses the old physical USB ilok and that opens so I can work on music that way at least.
Just complaining.
If you are actually reading this ... how are you?
I'm a mess.
Anyone who knows me on here is aware of my depression/anxiety bullshit.
I'm in a deep depression hole.
I wake up at about 1 or 2, try to do some work, feel "exhausted" (depressed?) by around 4, then I go back to bed and get up at around 6 or 7, then I, of course, can't fall asleep till around 4 or 5.
Last week my music school started online lessons which were good for me because it forced me to get up and stay up.
I'm just so freaked out by this Coronavirus.
I'm afraid my parents are going to get it.
I'm afraid Shane is going to get it and then I will get it.
I just keep seeing stories about younger people getting it and dying from it.
I live in Southeast Texas and we are now on lockdown.
Shane goes to the store almost every day and the shelves are constantly picked over.
I'm scared.
I do have a fat cat laying on me and a tiny cat laying next to me though .... so that's nice.
