It was Easy for You to get Inside

Last night my dad and my sister presented me with a guitar they had made me. My dad did the assembly and the staining, and my sister did the woodburning artwork.

Oh goodie, you're sharing this here too. I saw it in your other blog and was worried you were fully abandoning lj! That is so, so cool that your dad and sister MADE you a guitar. I didn't know you played...enjoy the catalyst! I'm still searching internally for one to get me to fulfill my goal of playing some popular songs I love on my clarinet...showing myself that it's not just an instrument of obligation, but one to enjoy, to play what I LIKE on.

I think it's important and good also that you had those single, formative years where you really felt yourself come into your own. I can see myself feeling the same way if I ever find someone- not wanting to rush into more "adulty" stuff, liking having a kid, if I decide I want to, but being glad I had all the freedom before to make my choices completely on my own. Though I wish I could have some mix of someone else being part of my life and it not being super intense commitment right away.....urhg.

I tend to only post in my other blog if it relates to my professional and creative life, so I sort of "spliced" my reaction to the guitar into two places and put it in both places. Ha, talk about compartmentalizing

I feel that way about livejournal too- that even if I go through long periods without posting, I always have it here and never want to leave! And I keep up with my friends list and am always glad to see one of you guys posting.

I stopped playing clarinet when I quit band. I don't think I ever really enjoyed it enough to begin with, but I always wanted to...felt that I had the potential to. And I did like taking private lessons, though unlike your guitar ones, never got the chance to pick my own music.

Oh I will post about relationshipy stuff, I will.
