I can no longer relate to how people eat as much in a regular meal as many people do. For dinner tonight I had a leg and a thigh and a wing from an adorably small roasted chicken plus a small pile of green beans and shitake mushrooms, served in a garlic miso sauce, and I'm still feeling overstuffed an hour later. It was the wing that did it, I bet. :P
My guitar is lying on my bed looking wounded. Not wounded in the "how could you do this to me" way, but literally wounded, since one of her strings has sprung. It's probably past time to put a whole set of new strings on her, which I would do if I had any idea how. I think I even have another set. Maybe there's a musical instrument store around here that could help me...
In the meantime, I find playing without the 5th string kind of fun. G and C are both much easier chords with only 2 strings held down. Tonight I reminded myself how to play folk underground's Tea and Corpses, which is a simple arrangement of G, C, and D. And also a fun song to sing. :)
(though it would be better in 3-part harmony)
And now I think I'll play Man in the Long Black Coat and go to bed.

btw, let's plan on wednesday. I just remembered that I have to get up slightly before the crack of OMG it's early on Tuesday to drive to columbus and catch a plane, so I expect to need to crash out after work tuesday. Wednesday will be better.
(don't take my guitar while traveling by plane. Car? yes. Plane? no. Maybe someday I'll get one of those awesome traveling cases but only if I get substantially better on this thing.)

String-changing in general is pretty straightforward, but there are a few small differences between acoustic and electric. In this case it doesn't matter since i have only my acoustics (which are what i've been playing 99% of the time since college) with me, so we're golden!
I'll plan on Wed but keep a note that you're around Tue also, just in case some bizarre change occurs. Safe travels!
