That's how I feel about guitar and my stupid double jointed fingers.

at work, i always talk to customers like they are stupid. i still don't understand how i haven't been fired yet.
cause you are cute
sounds like the people who come through my job. alot of my co-workers and I have a running joke that as soon as a customer comes down the stairs all common sense goes out the window.. Dealing with the public you sometimes wonder how some of these people made it through school..
I actually had someone tell me who looks at the customer information board. i rest my case.
what I meant by my statement is this. I was in Dunkin Dounuts the other day. I wanted to get some muchkins.. They had 25 for $3.29 on the menu board . I asked the girl there is there a cheaper box? She said you can get 8 for $1. I asked her would I be able to get 16 for $2.This woman( same one who hit me in the arm) made this comment to me "Wow you are really smart" cause I asked if I could get 16 for $2. . I just gave her a look.. SOemtimes people need to mind their own business. MY friend always says that to me cause in this day and age you have no idea what will set a person off..
I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again Teach the young people how to think, not what to think-Sidney Sugarman

Wouldn't being double jointed make it easier to fret though?
Queens Of The Stone Age-Someone's In The Wolf Once you're lost in twillights's blue
You don't find your way, the way finds you...
Tempt the fates, beware the smile
It hides all the teeth, my dear,
What's behind them...
So glad you could stay
Forever
He steps between the trees, a crooked man
There's blood on the blade
Don't take his hand
You warm by the firelight, in twilight's blue
Shadows creep & dance the walls
He's creeping too..
i'd imagine it would just make your fingers bend all funny when you applied pressure to the strings.
i played a sequence of octaves perfectly today, at a reasonably speedy tempo. i don't think it will happen ever again, but it felt like heaven while it lasted.
as for something that annoys me...um, my teeth at the moment. orthodontists suck.
Johnathan, I have a friend you should meet.
She does little with her life beyond expounding her distaste for hippies, then getting high. Sometimes in the opposite order.
