guitar comin in.

As far as today goes, I still am not getting any “work” done. I received information this morning that my guitar is scheduled to get in tomorrow. To tell the truth, I’m thinking I prolly shouldn’t be getting my hopes up cause this is Del Rio we’re talking about. So I’m expecting it in within the next couple of days. I’m SO EXCITED, though. Preston’s guitar is pretty cool, but (you know) it’s different when you have your own and everything. Plus, it’s a lefty AND it’s acoustic (which is my favorite sound). The only bad thing is my fingers are already hurting from Preston’s electric. My middle finger is the biggest enemy.

I’m really happy I’ve been picking up guitar as fast as I have. Preston says I’m picking it up faster than he did, so I’m pretty surprised. Already I’ve figured out some Do Make Say Think and Iron and Wine, but I’m most excited about learning to play Pedro the Lion (of course). My style of music is most reminiscent to what you’d hear in a quiet Iron and Wine song, but (obviously) not as good (yet).

I have no clue how I’m going to record anything I write. I passed up getting a Galveston Acoustic/Electric to get this one (thinking it was a Martin). False advertising caused me to buy it. Oh well, it’s a Johnson and I heard they’re good enough…

Today I got a video of the kids playing with the sheep done. I’m not considering it “work” because it’s not an “artsy” production of mine. Use this link to watch it if you’re interested.

Anyways, not too much happened today, so I’m gonna wrap this up. Until next time.
