So, I can tell how crazy my week has been based on one thing. I just realized that today is day 300, and truthfully, if I had been a bit more aware of that, I would've made a bigger deal about it. I can't believe I've almost been doing this for a year. I remember when I started out, thinking that a year seemed so far away, that I had all this time to get a lot accomplished. Honestly, I feel as though I've barely scratched the surface. Still sixty five days before the one year anniversary of the blog... still time to improve, to make bigger strides.
As for today, there were really only two major things that happened.
1) I got Music Maker installed on my computer before work. Didn't have a whole lot of time to play around with it, although I was able to discover that the drums B. tried to send me the other day that morphed into piano are somehow still piano when imported into the new program. Odd, I know.
2) I encountered some live music tonight, entirely by accident. I went out for a bite to eat and a drink tonight with R. after I got off work. We ended up at Star Bar on Ingersoll here in town, and there was a duo (guy and a girl) playing guitar and singing. We could only hear them through the windows, as we were sitting outside, but from what we could hear, they sounded pretty decent. It always felt, to both of us, like they were playing something we recognized, but in the end, they never were. Great exposure for them though, because the place was freaking packed!
After we ate, the weather was nice enough for a drive, which meant that we got to crank up Wilco's Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, and All At Once by The Airborne Toxic Event. Great night for music up loud in the jeep.
Really hoping that tomorrow night can yield some solid results for me on the playing side of things, considering that I didn't get much of that done today.
