Actually got a full night's sleep. It's amazing what an improvement that can make on one's outlook. Also got some work done on The Thesis, got the strap installed on the mandolin (it didn't make the initial trip, so just got it in the mail the other day) and got to play with it a tiny bit. It's going to take a while, but I think I might manage to make some music on it someday.
Read a very interesting quote by Louie C.K. today. He was quoting an acting coach who told him, "if you perform something twice and you do it differently each time, that means you're doing it well, because you're focusing on the intention and not the mechanics." He also said, "[Through practice]The first thing that happens is your best gets better, but what really matters is when your worst gets better. "
These are things to think on as I go to gather my warm, clean laundry from the dryer so I can go to bed!
