I Played Today

I played some guitar this morning before work. I have a nice, positive feeling of accomplishment. Granted what I needed to do was practice for this weekend’s band rehearsal but instead I recorded lead guitar parts for two songs. Quarantine Tunes Volume Seven is done with tracking. I have to mix the two songs I worked on today and then it is on to Volume Eight… which I already have one song that is a guitar solo away from being ready to mix.

I played through the direct output of two amps today. No noise. Headphones only. It is most definitely not as much fun as cranking out some actual sound and moving some air around, but it’s still always great to play. I used my ES-335, as you can see in the obligatory photo…

Lunch Break

I wandered around while my lunch was cooking and I took a bunch of pics with my phone. Why? I don’t know. I just felt like it.

Lily Pad… a little blurry. Sorry.
Just look at that face!
Look at that face!!!
Cardinals are probably my favorite bird, even though I am not from St Louis.
Please stop nibbling on the plants, cats.

New Leaves

Both of the clippings from Bellana’s plant are growing new leaves! Check it out!

Bertie Botts Every Flavour Plant Clipping is about to have it’s first new leaf. It looks like it’s just about ready to start unfolding itself. Good job, Bertie Botts!

Bertha, our original plant clipping and the plant from which Bertie Botts was clipped, is also just sprouting itself a new leaf. It’s the first new leaf since I re-potted into this new, bigger pot. See that little thing sprouting off of that other leaf? I should have gotten closer for this one, but I wanted to capture the spirit of the thing.

Now if I could just get the cats to stop eating leaves off of Bertha. I’ve been trying to keep them out of the room, but they are crafty little suckers and keep sneaking in. Stop eating my plants, cats!

Time to Go

Dinner is done. It was delicious. I am stuffed to the gills. It’s just about time to load up the car and head to the dawn of the new age of Lizardfish. Lizardfish 2.0. Lizardfish the Next Generation. Hopefully Lizardfish who will soon have a new name.

Robin the cat doesn’t care about any of this.
