Don’t Forget to Vote

Tomorrow is the mid-term election.

Don’t forget to vote (where applicable).

I am strongly considering voting for Mickey Mouse for the office of Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

How Many Strings

If you double track a 12-string, does that make it a 24-string?

I haven’t posted a cat pic in a while.

Overslept

File under -Obligatory End of Daylight Savings Time Post-

We overslept this morning. I was hitting snooze in my sleep for more than three hours. Woah! I had to get out of bed to pee (TMI at it’s best) at 8:15. While I was up I checked the clock on the cable box in the living room. It said 7:15.

Oh yeah, kiddies. Daylight Savings ended last night and we gained an hour! WOOHOO! We overslept but not as bad as we thought we did! Yes!

Weight Watchers Weigh In

The Mighty Spicket River was shocked to see that I was down 3.6 pounds last week for a nine week total of 31.6 pounds! It must be because of all the raking I did yesterday. Next stop is 40 pounds!

Back at It

It’s November 1st and you know what that means, music fans:

National Solo Album Month has begun again.

Last night at midnight I was laying in bed, unable to sleep, when I noticed the clock was about to strike midnight. I grabbed my iPad, brought up GarageBand, and when 12:00am came I started noodling through an idea. That’s one song in progress!

I don’t have a plan this time. I was vaguely thinking of using the 12-string more often. That was actually the plan I started with last year too. I’m also thinking of trying to make all of the songs be on the longish side, although I have no set definition of “long” in mind. Six minutes? 10 minutes?

We will see what happens.

Castle

The city of Methuen is littered with castle walls and structures. There’s one near us that I pass a few times a week and have always wanted to grab a picture of. Today I finally did it, despite the overcast gloomy sky and the crappy light.
