Oh, look... it's November.
Every year for the past (now) five years, I've written a similar post on, or around, the first of November. Typically, it says something referencing National Novel Writing Month (aka NaNoWriMo), and remarks on how I'm avoiding it again this year, but in its place I'm putting something cool and musical. Each November since the start of the blog, I've tried (and somewhat succeeded) at learning a classic rock song.
Two of the years have involved "Stairway To Heaven," one has been a (mostly failed) effort at "Classical Gas," although that was more due to lack of effort on my part than anything else, and I'm pretty sure the other year involved learning bits and pieces of "Red House" by Jimi Hendrix before falling short of that goal as well.
I've spent the last few days torn over how to handle this November. I'm making slow, but nonetheless steady progress with the theory and fretboard studying I've been doing, and I'm determined to keep that going. And yet, it would feel weird to not try to learn something in November at this point, so I'm going to try and do that as well. As for what it is this time around... I'll make up my mind, and get started, by the end of the day tomorrow.
Should be a busy month... especially since I'm being crazy enough this month to attempt NaNoWriMo as well. Wish me luck, because I just might need it.
