Anyways,
I was so lazy today that I didn't start being productive around 5pm, where I went to the gym. Partway through, I introduced myself to a woman, and stated that I wanted to meet her, and she looked at me as though I gave her dad cancer. I said 'peace' and left her alone for the rest of my workout. I didn't really feel anything the whole way through.
I spent my evening cooking a little, practicing guitar, literally played this board game with my landlady (lol) and doing some acting practice after 1am. It's becoming easier to do these little acting sessions; and it's probably leading to incremental gains, but I don't see it. But, I generally like the end product. I didn't go out tonight
Maybe the amount of money I've set aside for savings is a bit high, but this month has ending relatively well. I am only working 4 days per week, but I might get spare work as an extra, etc. I might look into a second job, since 3 straight days off is feeling a bit decadent. That would bring in a little extra money.
Guitar playing is becoming outrageously good, so long as it's on my guitar specifically, with the specific pick that allows for fast and clean picking. I can play 100% of riffs in Cliffs of Dover at full speed, but not in one take. I will need to practice start to finish at 90-95% speed, or keep working away until my speed goes up.
I'm learning the Austin City Limits version, so there's a sweet intro at the start.
I sprang for the Pickslanting Primer yesterday. Yesterday, the Yngwie exercises were difficult and hard to coordinate. Since then, I've coordinated them and sped it up, but they aren't 100%. I need to get to the parts about upwards and dual pickslanting. There is great promise here. Once I get these techniques down and apply them, I feel that I can focus on singing a little more. This might take a month altogether. I'm setting up a voice lesson with Kegan from the Bohemian Vocal Studios.
