What I really, really need right now is a block of time to just sit and play. To just pour all of the stress and all of the tension into the music, and work it out of my system. The wedding is in a week, and things are getting a bit nutty.
One of the cool things about that, though, is that SL is slowly moving her stuff over to the house. This includes CDs. All told, she's brought over 5 pretty huge cases of music. And one of those is all bootlegs of live shows by various bands (with a lot of Counting Crows gigs mixed in!). It will, of course, be my job to sort through everything, make sure that the cases all have CDs in them, and then (if necessary) take inventory of what's missing.
Found something cool and musical at the grocery store tonight, of all places. Apparently, Guitar World has decided to publish what they claim to be "The Best Instruction Guide Ever!" The way I see it, if it provides a solid overview of the basics, and helps both me and my students wrap our brains around some things, then it was a worthwhile purchase. And, considering that, with my teaching, I can write it off as a business expense, I went for it. I paged through it first, though, and it does look pretty cool.
So now, along with prepping a lesson for tomorrow afternoon, I can look through that as well. Maybe it will give me at least a bit of that block of time I so desperately need.
