Forgot to say, but I was slowed due to bad internet connection, but also I keep failing at hooking up my musical gear. I can't figure out how to connect the audio interface (hardware that converts your electric instrument into workable means in your PC), and couldn't figure out how to hookup the electric drums, either.
I also have an electric flute thing that plays a dozen or so instruments, and since it has an inbuilt speaker, I can at least play that.
I can also connect my electric baritone guitar and bass-guitar into my mini tube amp, which is straightforward, but I couldn't figure out how to connect the amp to the audio interface, nor can I exclude the interface with intent to record music in my PC.
The electric keyboard is quite complex, can't figure out all the controls and buttons, but I can play around, still can't figure out how to record, tho, unsurprisingly.

As always, I can't do anything correctly XD then I get angry and lose all my energy. For some reason, anger drains my energy like crazy, then I'm mentally stunned for up to a few days. I'm very behind in my writing, too, I'm mentally drained and feeling like a snail ^.^

Yes, I’m doing fine. The smoke was crazy. But lucky enough it’s finally clearing out. How are you doing. Are you affected with these wild fire? -Dances-

I'm fortunately on the other side of North America, so mostly untroubled. We had some forest fires but nowhere near as bad as what's happened around Ottawa/Quebec. The West Coast is lucky as we have lots of water, so the extra moisture helps limit forest fires.

Several years ago I woke up to a dark, orange morning once, but New York is much worse and in indeed scary. It's so surreal, it literally makes you feel like you're in Mad Max or something! Forest fires are terrifying. If you're ever caught in one, find a lake or river and stay partly submerged. You can also burn away everything around you but there's still risk.

On the bright side, I'm having fun making music, and I figured out why my amp wasn't working with my audio interface -- the amp didn't have a line out XD only took me a month to figure it out. So I ordered a new amp, costing me over seven hundred dollars, a Rolan Jazz Chorus, which is the best bang for your buck without crying from the price, as I'm on a budget so can't afford my dream tube amps worth over three grand. So I can only focus on sound quality, so I think that amp will work very well with my baritone guitar.

Still can't figure out how to work my wah-wah pedal, tho. I also pulled a Jimmy Page and played guitar with a violin bow XD it looks goofy but produces different sound, and is fun to play around with. I'm gonna spoil myself further and get a foot pedal and FX loop because I'm a pure nerd with hardware.

Still can't figure out the music making programs provided for free with my Steinberg, tho, that's a whole new level that I think I can't comprehend. But I'll try.

Absolutely what I was thinking about seeing New York in crazy orange and when it became cloudy, it reminded me of the movie the road.

You’ll figure it all out don’t worry.

I hope pink comes on soon.
