12:32 PM
I got another day off. I don’t know.
I was going to make a post earlier, but I just got distracted and lost it.
I think we got off though more today, not because of the weather, not the weather here. But because of the weather in. another place that affected the supply chain for parts and there weren’t it wasn’t available or something and so uh, Cuz it’s It’s a lot worse than other places up north. 1 of my cousins.
He’s the doctor of translation studies. And he lives in Missouri and it is, they have the snow plows out up there. He posted a video of it on Instagram and I was like, wow.
A snow plow. Haha
Looks big. It was a big truck. With a thing on the end of it.
Got plowed through the snow. Yeah.
It’s not that bad here. I got out earlier too. The dollar store about 9:30.
I never get enough stuff in 1, visit?
Nope.
Always if I get snacks, they’re always gone too fast.
And,
I’m going to have to go back out.
But I have real food here, too. I have tuna. Meals.
I think I have 1 left. I have potato chips.
Yep.
I have meat sticks.
I think I have another canvas spaghettio.
Another can of SpaghettiOs. I said, Yep.
I guess I’m just going to be lazy today. I did a bunch of crap yesterday. I went to Tennessee and got lottery tickets and I went to my storage unit. For about 4 hours.
And that was yesterday, you know, that was yesterday. Today is Monday.
2, 3 day weekends in a row.
Feels kind of weird today though. It’s like it feels like a continuation of yesterday.
I guess it’s funny.
I have coffee down the stairs. And, uh, and the refrigerator
In it. Yep.
Apparently 2 more roommates are, moving out, the 2, the couple. Moving out. And, uh,
I guess then I will only have 2 roommates.
I guess. And, um, It kind of makes me wonder like how many
I don’t how many people over the years. Okay and lived lived in this house and left, you know, came and went
I could always ask, I don’t know, probably a lot.
But I’m probably not moving out.
Anytime soon.
I’m comfortable. I’m comfortable here. Yeah, it’s not bad.
I need to clean up my room, but other than that,
I guess I’ll do my chores too, but the garbage is full I put a few things out there earlier.
I have a lot of garbage. Does it take out? I just haven’t done it in a few weeks.
Yep.
Um, what else?
I got, uh, my car door was frozen. Shut last night. I could not open it.
At all, and I didn’t want to hurt it because I broke part of the handle. Um, and I felt horrible. It’s sitting over here. On my nightstand.
My poor car.
It’s been through enough and the handle now. Oh, but it still works and I got in earlier and crank it. Cranked.
I cranked it up. I cranked it up. Yeah. And uh, Go to the Dollar, General.
Yep. That’s what I did.
My. App, the Moon.
I know my abdomen. Yeah. It’s uh, really sore. I don’t know why. I think it’s from playing guitar yesterday and on the bench I have and it’s in an incline. And I have to sit on the on the edge of it to play the guitar or and I have to like use those muscles. And I think that’s why I’m so sore, it sucks.
That was raising up. Just a second ago and thought holy shit, that’s got to be what it’s from
I don’t really know what. I really know what to talk about, though. I could talk about anything.
Oh God. Watch my brain, my mind just went off into a a big crazy place.
When I was, uh,
A brief time. I was at UA h. I was uh, I took this. Class. It was a film class. It was an International Film class. And uh, we had to go 1 night. It was a different. It was after
It was outside of class hours.
I had to go watch this movie about
I think it was Costa Rica. Uh, the
Anyways. I after reading the Wikipedia page, I’m just like, well, I guess that wasn’t.
As relatable as I thought? Yeah, whatever.
I’m going to delete all of that. What I just said? Yep.
I’ve also gotten interested in flamingo, guitar Styles and I don’t know much about it. It’s hard. I know that and I’m going to like, I’m going to study flamingo, guitar.
Yep.
I, I want to. The um, guitar, I have is a classical guitar.
Different.
The intonation is up higher on a classical guitar and it’s lower on a flamingo. Guitar is designed to have more of a percussive Like range, I guess.
I don’t know. All, it’s all new to me. I’ve been playing guitar for fucking ever music and everything and I buy a nylon string guitar and it’s like it opens up the kind of a whole little New. Kind of a world I guess it is though. It’s huge about guitar that I never really ever messed with. And it’s something I wish I would have gotten into when I was younger and had a lot more. Um,
Motivation. Yeah. Cuz I mean, I express myself through music and stuff.
And I’m at a point where, you know, I can do pretty much anything I want to with it. If I, if I feel like if something’s affected me enough, I can usually get a song out of it. And it usually comes out, it’s pretty funny and uh, I’m kind of comfortable and that’s my Main that and this blog,
Is like where I get most of my crap out, you know. And uh, But I put so much energy, like a skill points or however you want to, you know, Define that Into, uh, that mode of expression like just me, Seeing crazy songs and playing uh, an acoustic guitar. But now, I’ve gotten into the nylon string guitar and It makes me want to to explore different like, Styles like, flamingos.
Um, Because it sounds really awesome. And it is hard. And I can already play hard stuff. Like I’m an accomplished guitar player. I’m not the best. I used to be a lot better back when you know I practiced 4 hours a night when I was in high school.
And when I was in bands and stuff, I practiced all the time, but
There’s nothing stopping me from practicing like that. Now either, you know, that’s But it’s like, I have been just my singing and playing, but not like trying to do anything. Really like challenging or crazy, like flamingo guitar would be
Some of that stuff. Sounds so awesome and it looks awesome playing it but it’s so hard. Like I was trying to do some of the fingers strumming patterns and you know, I can play a banjo like I’ve got like this.
Uh, It’s kind of like a blues. Like,
Hillbilly, kind of fucking style. I have But it’s dark. I use a lot of minor
Stuff. Uh, scales.
Yeah.
But it’s like a mix of all the crap. I’ve learned like I was, uh, trained in jazz guitar. So, I know like a lot of Like chords, and that’s the thing like Jazz isn’t that hard really? It’s like, it’s harder than than like standard Rock stuff. But The really hard, shyt is classical music and it wanted to spell it like that. Anyways and like flamingo guitar, like like that is fucking so hard. That’s like the real like You know, cuz blues and and rock. And Shit on guitar is so fucking easy compared to that stuff. It’s like if you
It’s so easy. Like what I play and how I can play. It sounds really cool and not everybody can do that. But that’s like average good, you know, an average good guitar player. Like I’m a good guitar player like in the average scale of, you know, Like being good, I can sound really good. And I can play a lot of different things that not everybody you know can play. I’m really out of practice for the crazy stuff, though, but then it’s, that’s what that’s my point.
I think flamenco guitar would help my um like expand my palette of expression. You know. So I’m going to try to mess with that. That’s just me, though. Like laying here on a day. I have off watching. I’ve been watching you. Um, Facebook reels. Yeah. Flamco guitarists. And it’s really awesome. It’s not something that is out of my grasp, I guess either it’s an attainable goal to at least get like You know, where I could go up on some open might nights and be like, blah.
And impress, everybody. With some bullshit.
Which I do. Um, when I’m like singing and playing But, you know, it’s
It’s not the same. It was like being able to pull off some crazy looking stuff like on guitar. Which I, I still can. I mean, I don’t know, but it’s not like flamingos crazy. Yeah.
Gosh.
But uh, that’s 1 Thing That quitting smoking, my voice is back to where it was like, This time a couple years ago, maybe not quite as It’s, it’s close though. Yeah, I was singing. Uh, Devil Woman in standard tuning. And with with minimal effort and that made me happy it’s like hey it was worth quitting smoking and now I just need to practice more
Yep. That’s what’s been in my brains, I guess.
Today. After I got back from the dollar store,
Well, I guess
What else am I going to talk about? Thank you, please.
