    Finding a lot of empty seats in buses and railroad cars, and finding a lot more dollars than I've remembered or expected on my MetroCard. It just occurred to me again as I haven't been riding public transportation regularly, but it hardly ever gets old.

    Oh yes, and whenever any bus or train that I'm riding on is actually ahead schedule as well.

    When you're expecting everything to go to shit, and then everything actually goes really well. Not just "not shit," but actually well.

    been spending the past few days remodeling and reorganizing my studio. I'm pretty sure today it will be ready to roll, and it's looking pretty rocking

    7 days 80 hours, only yelled at someone once and I feel kinda bad about it but still dude needs to figure it out. Now I have three whole days off. I work Thursday and still get my usual , somehow, (Friday Saturday) days off. And I'm going to see a movie on cheap Tuesday with the lady friend. Also I'm getting shit drunk tonight if I don't fall asleep at the bar.

    That's beautiful man! If only I had that much space! Is that a Jaguar or a Jazzmaster (oh wait, I think you have both nvmd)? Also, nice old school TV

    Heh Heh - that's what I noticed too. Brings back good memories of watching the boob tube at my Grandparent's house.

    I'm cheered.

    Thanks! We put a lot of work into it (along with 20+ years of gear hoarding), but I can't even begin to put into words how grateful I am to have free access to this space. The songs just write themselves.

    Is that a Jaguar or a Jazzmaster (oh wait, I think you have both nvmd)?
    John (my music/studio partner) collects guitars, and yeah, I'm pretty sure that's both. They all sound different, but he keeps them maintained with specific tunings. It's all over my head but it sounds good!

    Also, nice old school TV
    We tried to get it running laser discs today. Sadly, the power exploded after a short bit, so now it's just a pretty stand.We still dragged in an old tv and put Hellraiser and Return of the Jedi on today.

    My first new car was a Jetta. Loved the car. I see them on the road now and think they are so small.

    i would never in a million years read any of the 50 shades books, but this article about the newest one is SLAYING me.

    nsfw (language) and also contains the phrase "music to my dick" >.<

    Halls, when they greatly help alleviate minor allergic reactions and common colds. I'm also grateful for Listerine PocketPaks in this regard too.

    My friends have all got in touch to ask I want to do for my birthday coming up soon. I don't have many friends so I feel quite humbled. Many a birthday has gone by with me doing not much. Maybe a nice birthday week this year !
