i had a couple days off after the weekend.... i was glad and, as always, neurotic about not working... the not working was great. i tore apart my kitchen and moved the shelves, fridge, stove and cutting board. bleached the corners and just generally tore shit u[p witht the clean scream. slayer rocking my background with mastadon to back it up. the kitchen looks fucking great and cleans up well when i squirt cooking juices all over in the process...
now if i could only just get to the bedroom, which is the only other room in my studio besides my bathroom...
new furniture must be built. more money must be made for said wood. then maybe i will build a bedframe.... low slung, with short, fat posts? maybe some carving with the routers?
after what seems like too long....a couple of weeks... i started playing music again. life has just been too busy with all the quality time @ home and oivertime at wirk to have the energy or space to pick up the guitar. i even started to record again. just notations to get in the practice of having the machine sucking up the noises. a little guitar, a little bass and a little drums to make the brain work in an appropriate motion.
hell i even did my laundry to break away and think different.
a couple of days off will do that to you. tore apart the kitchen. hung out with jonnytrrrash7 and went to aquarius and then to openmind. i bought some live pharoah overlord and a 12" zodiac mindwarp and the love reaction. the vinyl was unpriced and because i was busting on it so hard and making fun of the shit they sold it to me for a dollar.
talking to jonnytrrrash7 about music got me to thinking about turning on the machine again whilst i played. sometimes the people around you get you thinking. it is good to have positive minds around for peer motivation.
i just gotta pull myself off the mattresses and get out in the circles and then abck again to play. people to play with again? more time int he week please. more money to blow on studio time and practice spaces. hell i should just quit my job 'course then there would be no more money on the in flow.
ack.
more of the same. i'll sneak the time in and keep up the discipline of playing? we'll see.
off to work. maybe if i just work three days a week?
aloha,
j
