6 Strings, 21 frets, You Choose.

I'm still so shocked! I haven't played guitar in about 3 days. I can't believe it. I cut my nails today and I'm getting into it but it feels totally new to me. However, I am clearing out my personal folder of other ideas to put in dropbox and I am happy! There are some damn brilliant ideas that I am synergising into others for some truly spectacular results.

Also still getting up into those movies. Death at a funeral = fantastic.

That's it for now folks, back to guitar for me!

How do I get myself back there??

I've been feeling nostalgic as of late. I've been reading the old e-mails in my inbox and coming across some classics from old friends who are no longer friends. None of that had anything to do with me, they just decided to cut the chord I guess. Oh well. Still good to go back and have a read and a chuckle. Were we so petty before? Yes I guess I was.

I also managed to find heaps of old ideas from the other that I managed to get up into dropbox. You should have a look in your own stuff, you never know what you'll find!

I've been busy at work, and I'm loving it! The day just flies by so quickly! I want to work more! It's just brilliant.

Anyhow, that's it folks. Have a nice day. Joaquin out.

Swirly Things

Sorry, it has been a while since I've blogged. Not that I've been lazy. I have been browsing my old music folder to go scrumping for ideas. I have uploaded most to dropbox, but there are still a number to go. I really am excited! There are at least 90 ideas in there! 90 solid ideas! I can't wait for the next jam session with the other. I have also been on a mad movie watching binge lately. A few gems and a few misses too (ahem, DOA anyone?) :|

Further, I will be moving out soon, and I will be very glad when this happens! Things should be grand.

I thought it wouldn't happen, but it did - the JRL has expanded! I will have to update that shortly.
That's it for now folks! Have a good one.

Guitar work? Yes.

Let's do it.

Destroyed In A Volley Of Return-Fire

Non-slip surfaces my ass!! It was pouring rain today, and I was wearing my sneakers and I almost slipped over 3 times on tiles! Why do businesses (including my own work) continue to use them? Especially on non flat foundations!! I only managed to survive due to my impeccable balance, as well as treading around like someone who had forgotten he wasn't on an ice skating rink!

I found a place to live! I'll be moving in with a friend towards the end of the month. It should be interesting. Will it be restrained freedom? Hopefully I can get more things done now. I might buy a new i-7 enabled comp to celebrate. It's very different, it's an older suburb, and very affluent and exclusive. It should be an interesting change of pace for me and my middle class ways.

Driving Tip #123024:
On humid days you may be tempted to use the heater when things get foggy inside the car. This is not what you want to do. Engage the rear demister, the front demister, blast the air on cold as high it will go, and turn on the AC! It should be gone within 60 seconds!

Enjoy folks. Have a nice day!

I Am Still Dreaming Of Your Face

On the inspiration of the other's newfound outlook on life, I have taken to guitar en masse. I have been putting more ideas up in the dropbox and fiddling with some others. We have a massive jam session coming up and I am trying to learn my entire catalogue of songs or at least put them up so I need to make this entry quick damn it!

What's bad however, is that I swear I had finished some songs and put those ideas somewhere. Unfortunately it seems that I was very wrong. Now all those ideas are missing damn it! I'll probably never think of them again. Hopefully I can think of better things. It sucks cause you need to work backwards, cause you remember bits and pieces of songs and you need to try and fill in the gaps. It's happened with a song that the other and I had completed totally! I lost the piece of paper that we wrote everything on!! Now all I have is just lyrics and a solo!!!

Mobile phones. What weird things. I use mine to contact people if I need to in a rush or if I'm lost. I don't like being contacted on it however! I leave it off at work, so I don't get bothered. If only I could do the same thing with other things in my life!

You know what I find weird? People who go to the toilet and don't flush. You don't know if they're doing anything in there, but going to the toilet and not flushing is TRULY suspicious and disturbing behaviour! Flush even if you are doing drugs!! Just stop freaking me out, please!

Enough. Guitar time. My 6 strings are better than yours!
