I almost got some recordings up

Last night I attempted to hook my IC recorder up to my computer and transfer some of the 30+ samples I have from my night recordings over the past year to the blog.

However, I just recently moved my computer to the Ubuntu OS, and for some reason Audacity is not picking up the recording from the input line very well anymore. After some research, some say to plug the wire from the recorder to the Line In jack in the back of the computer and see if that's any better. Hopefully I'll have something up soon!

Shelby tells me about her bathtime visitor

I was working on my computer downstairs in the unfinished basement yesterday evening when Shelby came downstairs after her bath to tell me about a visitor she just had.

She claims that a white shape kept darting in and out of the bathroom doorway . She kept seeing it out of the corner of her eye, but every time she tried to look at the doorway nothing was there. This happened she said for a about a minute, then stopped.

The movie "Paranormal Activity"

Holly and I saw "Paranormal Activity" at the movie theater a few weeks ago.

It was an entertaining movie, and I was impressed early on with the activity that was going on in their house. However, it quickly grew to things that were a little hard to believe.

HOWEVER, I can relate 100% to the first few nights of the movie. Taps on the walls, doors closing, and audible footsteps are all things I've encountered in my house, and have all been documented in this blog.

A light passes right by me as I'm getting dressed this morning

So I wake up this morning, bleary-eyed, and go into our walk-in closet to start getting dressed for work.

At one point I'm trying to unfurl a white undershirt so I can put it on, and this little ball of light zips across me at just about chest level. It flew right over my arms, which were held at a level where my elbows were bent at 90 degrees. It flew from the right to the left across me into the bathroom, and I tried to follow it with my eyes into the bathroom to see where it went, but it was gone.

It was far away enough from my eyes as it passed me that I could look at it quickly. It didn't have a form. It was fuzzy, and soft white in color. The whole experience lasted only a second or two.

Was it a bug? Or was it something more paranormal? I don't know. The purpose of this blog is so I can record everything that goes on in this house that I can't explain.

It definitely made no sound as it flew past me. It was too small and too white to be a housefly. I went into the bathroom to finish getting ready, and there was no bug flying around the lightbulb.
