No guitar playing today. I’m in the office again and there wasn’t time before work and there likely won’t be time after work. I expect the same tomorrow as I’ll be in the office again. That will be three days this week. Ouch.
Thursday though. Expect good news on Thursday (but don’t bank on it).
Not a lot but better than nothing.
Just before bed last night I worked out a song form for song number 39 and then started song number 40. I now have two songs ready for rhythm guitars.
Like I said, not much but I thought I was going to get shut out again and I didn’t so that’s a win.

Why is it that missing a day of work makes things 100 times more stressful when you return the next day? I was out Friday and it seems like nothing really happened in my absence, but here we are today and I am stressing out over every tiny detail?
I thought this week would be a normal two-days-in-the-office week but now it’s three. I have three pieces of paperwork that I need to have done by (probably) Thursday. It should be super simple. In fact, there were four pieces of paperwork and I’ve already cranked out one of them. I’m freaking out over the remaining three though. Why? I have time off booked for Monday and Tuesday next week. I thought they were going to be music days, but now will the be spent with dad in the hospital? I don’t know. Maybe. Part of the time at least.
Seriously. Stop freaking out over nothing, Robert. You’ve got this shit covered. You can handle it. Stop stressing. Work is okay. Dad is going to be okay. Calm down and just get it done like you always do.
I think I might just be reacting to being sad that Bellana left for Vermont this morning. No clue when we’re going to see either kid again. I’m guessing that’s the real root of my struggles with this particular Monday.
Over all it’s not a bad day or anything, I am just stressin’ like ya do. May your Mondays be easier on the ol’ stomach, as it were.
I wonder which cat has been eating the leaves off of Bertie Botts Every Flavor Plant Clipping?
I bet it’s this little flirt machine…
A good day. I put vocals on four songs. Then I wrote lyrics and melodies and added vocals to two more songs. Then I mixed three songs. No guitar playing, but a good day indeed.
It’s been a few weeks since my activity app has looked like this.
Is the hashtag supposed to be #GibsonDay or is it #GibSunday? They both work. Should I just use both of them?
I haven’t played today, but I did get a couple of pics for whichever hashtag is the right one. I am so unhip.
Anyone else jealous?
I have mixed three songs today. That means the total number of completed demoes of new songs for the 50 songs in 90 days challenge is up to 27. 54% complete.
I’ll share the least awful of them all. This is yet another attempt to make 3/4 time rock. I guess it’s almost successful, but I am pretty sure I’ve written exactly this song multiple times in the past.
I might share the other two songs later, but probably not.
