Letter to Julia 20120906

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

Hello Julia, my beloved.  I hope I'm not boring you with these mundane letters, but I write because I love you, and I want you to be assured of that.  Plus, in this situation, saying something is better than saying nothing.  Because you are my love.  Perhaps when we are face to face insyaAllah, we can start communicating telepathically.

It started raining yesterday, after over a week of blistering hot weather.  I was watering my Mom's plants out in the sun for 5 minutes, and I got burned!  As you know, my voice is quite bassey, even at high pitches.  But I found a digital pre-amp on the karaoke circuit of my dvd player that had a preset noise gate, compressor, and eq that cut the bass in my voice so as to make my chick singer vocals sound more feminine.  So I thought.  Then I had to rearrange all my electronics and computers to make room for the new color TV my parents gave me, and I didn't have a long enough cord for my dvd player to reach my vocal amp.  So I had to sing without any color or processing.  Then it started to rain, and it is still raining right now.  I suppose Allah considers my bassey voice better, or even more feminine.
