I reinstalled some utilities I have used before, and was pleasantly surprised with how well everything worked. My dad had recorded the storytelling onto CDs using his equipment. I ripped it to WAV using <a href=\"http:\/\/www.exactaudiocopy.de\/\">Exact Audio Copy<\/a>, then I edited the files using <a href=\"http:\/\/audacity.sourceforge.net\/\">Audacity<\/a>, an open source sound editor that has made some notable improvements since when I last used it (I didn&#8217;t remember the name so I had to go find it again as well). When all the files were amplified to my liking, I then used Nero Express to burn the tracks to a disc, and I finally have one Christmas present down&#8230; only several dozen more to go. Speaking of which, I started my Christmas shopping today, but it didn&#8217;t go so hot &#8211; Bellevue Square was downright uninspiring &#8211; I ended up with only one item from the entire mall. Costco was a little better, and Target was better still&#8230; but I haven&#8217;t gone shopping in so long, that I don&#8217;t really know what&#8217;s out there, so there&#8217;s a lot of browsing to do, which is unfortunate considering my compressed time scale. Oh well, another adventure I guess.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tonight, I compiled a CD of bedtime stories read aloud by myself and my parents for my nephew, Joska.
