Busy Evening

First, the Supreme Court unanimously rejected the seditious attempt by the fascists to overthrow the presidential election.

Then the FDA approved the Pfizer vaccine. Sure, Cheeto tried to take credit for the brilliant work of a German company that developed the vaccine without taking operation warp speed money, but hey… every word out of his mouth since at least 2015 has been an instantly verifiable lie so I guess you take what you can get.

Overall, today has not been a good day, but those two things have brightened it up a smidge.

December Music: Promise Kept

When I wrote about the lack of progress on December Music earlier today I had two little bass riffs recorded and that was it. I promised myself I’d have more before I slept tonight.

Promise kept. I’ve got four songs worth of bass and drum parts down and ready for guitar. I feel a tiny bit better.

The plan for guitars this month was going to be Les Paul into Ryra into both 15 watt amps. I think instead I’m just going to swap out the higher gain pedal on my band board for different alternatives and see if anything catches my ear. I’m kinda not happy with how things sound right now and feel like mixing things up.

Speaking of mixing things up, when COVID is over and shopping is safe again, what about trying to trade my Strat and my Bassbreaker 18/30 for a Les Paul Junior and a 68 Deluxe Reverb? I’d have to chip in some cash too, but it could happen (probably not though).

Long Day

Today was a long, stressful, tiring Monday. I’m not sure why, it just was.

I found out that at some point in the next couple of weeks I’m going to need to drive to one of my company’s buildings to pick up a new computer. Going into a building is literally the last thing I want to do during the pandemic, but it can’t be helped. Crud.

We are also planning a holiday party at work this week. It’s going to be over video conference. I’m really sick of Covid.
