I swapped an iPod for a guitar. I like the symmetry in that. Was nearly as satisfying as seeing the canoe bartered for a NWT license plate and a smile.
Maybe now I'll actually learn the tabs for the songs I've been singing with great frequency (and slowly improving range) in the shower.
gfish warned me that it was really easy to become a filker...
I'm a little afraid of that venture, just now, but I do miss the weight of an instrument in my hands.
There are wires in the middle of an ocean
Making static and electric noises
But I can talk to you across an ocean
Making faraway human voices...
