I tried to take a pic of the traffic as I was sitting on the highway at a dead stop. What I got was a pic of a little chunk of ice on my windshield. Oh well.
I’m still counting it as my photo a day pic. Number 143 of 365, to be exact. I took a stop light theater as a backup but who cares, the usa is gone. What difference does it make?
I had a bit of a slow start this morning. Something came up and got in the way of the normal routine, but we’re all back to normal now. So much so that I have a picture of a cat to share.
A couple days past the full moon. I saw this as I was out starting the car this morning. Lame, but at least it’s not a cat or a guitar. Something a little different. iPhone Astrophotography and stuff.
The RPM Challenge is about three weeks away. I’m thinking about what to do as far as guitar gear and I think I have an idea…
I would add a Crybaby wah pedal to this. It would be off the board to the right, but in the signal chain it would come after the Fuzzface and before the Dyna Comp. Pedal chain law requires a Fuzzface to come first. It’s an impedance thing. I’m not an electrical engineer so I don’t really get it, but it’s true. wah->Fuzzface sounds terrible. Fuzzface->wah sounds… okay.
I’ve wired this for power but I haven’t put velcro on the three new pedals. Outside of that and adding the Crybaby, I am all set to try this out… someday. Saturday? Sunday? Someday.
Guitar playing… I haven’t forgotten about you, my friend and favorite hobby and possibly unhealthy obsession. Just need to make some time.
I didn’t have a chance to play any guitar last night. I didn’t blow off an opportunity, the opportunity just never arose.
This weekend? We’ll see. I need to start preparing my fingers for February’s album-in-a-month challenge. Also, hopefully the band will start practicing again. I have no calluses on my finger tips right now. It’s been almost two months since I’ve played a single note. It’s going to hurt when I start. That’s okay. I will survive. I will persist.
I’m thinking of downsizing the pedal board setup for February. Just to shake things up. We’ll have to see.
It’s time to start playing for real, Robert. Get to it.
Early morning small changes to the living room. Look at the pictures in the last post, then look at this:
We swapped the chairs, put the ottoman in place of the coffee table thing, and slid everything to the left a little. Let’s see how long this lasts. There are a couple of different things we could still try before we declare this project complete.
On a mostly unrelated topic, here’s today’s photo a day picture:
