definitely an adult as of yesterday. I now have $966 debt! woohoo. Bought an epiphone les paul standard ebony and a line 6 spider ii 210 amp. Also got a stand, clip lock strap, some grip picks, and a new cord... but yeah, debt is fun! It's all free right now :-D. She sounds so awesome too, and with some help from a friend, I named her as well: Leigh :D.
so yeah, lil Leigh and I were havin a blast tonight... I finally got down a solo, from one of the first songs I learned. Jimmy Eat World - The Middle. I can do the solo to about 90% satisfaction, i'm a little rough, but it'll get better. Also learning Voodoo Chile by Hendrix. That's good stuff. I was trying to play Free Bird, but I'm not really sure how the fingering works with that.. and it moves so freakin fast... i just can't really keep up with any decency.
So I finally just gave up on Cathy. One of the things that made her so awesome that I remember is that everytime I saw her she was always smiling and in a great mood, and whenever I talk to her now she's all not nice, and is like "omg you don't give me space you always IM me" ..... strange none of my other friends ever complain that I talk to them... so I'm like you know what forget it. If she's going to act like that, there's no reason for me to keep on about it. It would be different if she was still the same person I remember, but somehow or another she has changed, and it certainly isn't for the better in my opinion. She doesn't want to talk to me or see me, so i'm fine with that... I see no reason to be head over heels for someone who complains when I try to talk to her.
the guitar omg its so great. lil leigh is my baby.
I went out looking for a job today, saw my buddy Jimbo (he's like 65, but that's okay). He and I used to work at Busch Gardens in this one water balloon place. His son owns the Dunderbakk's (sp) at University Mall, so he's trying to hook me up with a job there. I quit BG about a month after he did, and for the same reason: fkin idiot employees. So that should work out in about a month...
I want to get the hell out of this house. Being back in Tampa is fun, esp hanging out with friends that I haven't seen. Just about all of them have changed, but most of them are for the better. Been hanging out with Kosta a lot, saw him at Guitar Center today with his lil bro George while I was takin lil leigh in to get her strap fitted on. Then we dipped over across the parking lot to Applebees, and I had some oriental chicken rollup. Was goooood.
I think when I start a band, I'm gonna prob get Kosta to play bass, because he's gettin a bass soon, and he and I have the same good taste in music. We still need a damn drummer though....
but yeah, I definitely want to move out. If all else fails, I may get a loan out for 6 mos, and go rent an apt, or more probably take over Jana's lease at like 425/mo that she shares with Georgia and Joe. It's a nice place, and she wants to move back home because it's free, and she doesn't really mind living at home. I can't even play my damn guitar hardly because everybody goes to sleep at like 6 oclock in the afternoon. I also hate getting the third degree everytime I go out and come back and its like "what the hell are you doing home so late". I'm like "uhh.... in case you didn't notice I don't have school to go to, or anything else to do, so what's it matter".
But yeah.. I am definitely not staying here any longer than I have to. It's not really that bad, I just want to be out on my own again. The freedom of the college life is great.
ahh.. and by the way, the song Jane by Jefferson Starship is the awesomest song in the history of the world ever. I've listened to it about 50 times since I heard it on thunder 1035 on my way back from somewhere like a week ago. I set my desktop wallpaper as the JS Greatest Hits Record case... it's pimp!
