Self Manipulation Through Guilt

I really want to play some guitar today, but I don’t think I am going to have the time. Still, I took today’s photo a day picture as a specific attempt to try and guilt myself into playing. I do this a lot and it almost never works. Oh well.

The New Les Paul

I’ve been spending so much time stressing over my old Les Paul that I thought that today’s photo a day picture should be my new Les Paul. This is the one Jen gave me for my 50th birthday and I love it that much more because of her.

I Need a Musical Weekend

Just looking ahead to this weekend. I need to make some music. I need to play some guitar. I need to play guitar through an amplifier and not just headphones. It is imperative. We’re getting to that point where not playing is affecting my mental state. Music must be made at volume. It is necessary.

Time?

Do you need time?

Daily Writing Prompt

What a stupid question.

Yes, I need time. Do I want to get to work on time? Yes. Do I want to keep appointments? Yes. Do I want to know when I can spend time with my wife and family? Absolutely, yes.

The entire human race, without exception, needs time. At the most basic level. We need to know when to sleep and when to wake up. We need to know when to eat. We need to know when the sun is going to go down and the scary monsters that want to eat us will come out of their creepy hiding places.

Really… what a stupid question.

Photo a Day Candidates

I took two cat pictures this morning. I had to decide which one would be the photo a day pic for today. I did this to take my mind off of my guitar sitting on the operating table. It worked for about three minutes.
