Democraps; exactly I did get some stuff accomplished today; Minor stuff, but still, stuff. I got the stereo hooked up to the computers. This is something that has been hanging ever since we bought the new stereo system. And the sonovabitch won't play in stereo, dammit. I've got it hooked up right, I've checked it ten or twelve times now. Even got out the damned book. I got to talk to Tyler tonight! He seems to be going through a rather rough time, breaking up with a long-time girlfriend, and says that he wants to come up and see me, which makes me pretty happy, the latter part, not the former. I have a vague recollection of breakups, and they're not fun at all. Anyway, I'm really looking forward to seeing him again, it's been a long time. Have I mentioned lately that I really love my keyboard? The music one? Well, I really really do. Karen told me that it sounded like I was playing for a funeral, and then mentioned that I could probably get a job playing organ for a church. Heh. Like, right. Although I probably could, at this point. Give me the music and I could probably play it. I've got all of the major and minor chords down pretty well, just need to do a bit of thinking and figgering out fingerings. And I'm starting to kinda read music, and when I can get that done, I'm gonna be pretty much home free. And it's a cool, cool hobby. 20:21... Karen and I are going over to see Jody and Lee Ann in a bit, and I will smoke my last cigar and drink my last bit od alcohol tonight. Wish me luck, if you would so be inclined, and remember that I am but a frail human, and ever wanting of good sense and willpower. So. Karen and I are headed over to Stingers to hang out with Lee Ann and Jody.
Like repiglicans. Different
Only in eyes like mine.
And, well, I've figgered out that I can do a freestyle thing, too. Playing chords and progressions and just hitting the right-hand keys that feel right. Works well with everything that I know so far, but I want to get into the ninths and elevenths and thirteenths and really play some freebasing jazz. I'm kinda getting the idea that I can play damned anything that I want to, and I don't know what that means... am I right, or am I just stupid?
