So, for the first time in forever, I'm late posting. That's what I get for falling asleep on the couch. I played for a bit when I got home from work, though, so that makes it easier to just sit down and write. Much of it was like yesterday, getting myself to feel better about my acoustic playing. I still have it in my head that I need to start writing again soon, but I figure, if it's not happening naturally, I'm not going to worry about it all that much. It'll happen when it's supposed to, right? Still, I think I need to be more diligent about carrying a notebook on my person at all times. Some old habits don't need to change in the new year.
Tonight was a slightly unfocused night in the studio. It was a night of acoustic stuff, but most of what I got accomplished involved tinkering with different songs by Jackie Greene and Johnny Cash. If nothing else, I set up the next list of songs I want to figure out. Tomorrow night I need to start getting back to the Acoustic Goldmine book, as well. Every time I sit down with the acoustic for an extended period of time, I reconnect with the emotional side of that instrument. There's so much to learn still in that book, so much information designed to improve my playing. I need to take better advantage of it. I know it's crazy, but I'm already looking forward to Friday. I really need to spend a lot of the day in the studio. Getting a weekday off of work is such a rare commodity. I need to do a good job of using my time wisely.
