A pretty quiet week in the grand scheme of my now full-time schedule... My hours are now running 2-8p Monday-Friday, 12-7p Saturdays. Not so much the problem except AlienPrincess' schedule has her operating at wholey different hours. Our paths meet for the odd meal, having a brief nuzzle while one sleeps and the other leaves for school, upon return from work and the immediate flop on the couch. The lack in time has also run down the contents of our pantry... An almost-always source of culinary pride, my cooking readiness has me thinking about Googling cooking sites that suggest dishes based on ingredient-at-hand selections. "Hmmm...soy sauce and cornstarch makes me...a soy roux which can be added to make peanut butter soup."
Earlier in the week, the bane of my existence was the lack of getting Foo Fighters' - 'Everlong' out of my head... Traditionally the cure for such things is breaking down and listening to the song - at times difficult if purchase is necessary. The next progressive step is learning how to play the particular tune and, you can find the tablature here. All this seems to do was exacerbate my condition. I've since re-harmonized the tune to derive it's correlation between a couple of Police songs and Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir". Too much time on my hands..? I'd be the first to agree as at work I can now read (or sneak in sheet music and construct chord-scales) for at least two hours every shift.
On a far less...strange music front, ElmCityDrunk, RxQueen and I were able to catch Drag The River Sunday at Cafe Nine. This is less than amazing except that the band's new lead & pedal steel guitarist is Casey Prestwood. Notable projects of his are the obvious Hot Rod Circuit and The Only Children featuring his wife, Kate and his stint at Willoughby's working w/ chiquitabonita and AlienPrincess. Back when the sister started working there, Casey and I used to talk about Pedal steel and how best to retrofit our beat-up guitars to best comp tones and the occaisional solo. At the Nine, he spied me & showed off both his David Crosby-like mustache and his Fender custom Tele w/ B-Bender. Awesome set and further reason why I need a Tele ASAP and should eternally catch him locally when passing through.
Upcoming plans are finding the time to hangout w/ AmazonRed13 & hug the Lyme's disease out of her, kick DarkRabbit's ass at Ghost Recon 2 and get catering ideas from chiquitabonita on a project I'll allow her to es'plain. And OH, how much do I want to purchase these and spread the love throughout New Haven!
