Much better mood today! I got to go pick up my guitar in Marion last night, which also meant that I got to go hang out with my boyfriend, and we watched "The Princess Bride," which made it all around a rockin' evening. :)

I'm finally getting to listen to the WoVeN CD that Jason bought, and I'm liking it a whole lot. He said he didn't care for much other than "Pillage," which was the song that we both originally heard by them and both liked. Me, I kinda like the whole thing. It's got a very Sigur Ros feel to it, except it's in English instead of Icelandic. :) One of the descriptors they use for it on The Music Made Me Do It is Neo-Psychedelia... so yeah, I can see that being my sort of thing... :)

Got a whole lot of stuff to get done tonight after work, so I am quasi-hermitting. Not really, though, as a good chunk of stuff I need to do involves going out shopping. But I'm not gonna do the usual Tuesday night Hangar excursion. I'm gonna do my laundry, get my shopping done, try to get some stuff done around the apartment, and call Jerome before bed. Sounds like a plan. :)

Tired and in a somewhat foul mood this morning. :( But I had a mostly good weekend (except for the three cat scratches, none of which are from my precious babies), so that helps this not be too sucky of a day. Hopefully.

I need to start taking my movies over to the boys house, because they own a very small selection of movies, and though I love "Boondock Saints," I'd rather not watch it every time I go there. :)

My guitar should be in my possession soonishly. The UPS site says they tried to deliver it Friday, but I didn't see a sticker from that... :( Hopefully there will be one today, and I can call them and tell them to take it off the truck this evening, and go pick it up tonight. Hopefully. :) That will make my day muchly better. :)

In the meantime, though, I'm working, and waiting on the boss to arrive. It's so quiet around here right now.

Yeah, yeah, weird week continues. Super weird, all around.

Today, I bought a guitar. :)

The guitar is super sweet for several reasons, including:
1) The color of the guitar, according to the manufacturer's webpage, is "Vampyre Red Satin." How neat is that?
2) It's in a coffin case. Black case, red lining. SWEET!
3) Oh, yeah, it sorta used to belong to the former guitarist for Abney Park... :)

I'm totally squee-ing over the last bit, in particular. It's a gorgeous frickin' guitar, and it's in a totally sweet case, but oh. my. god. it was used to record some of my favorite songs in the whole world, and he may well have been playing it when I saw them in Seattle. I can't remember, honestly. But it's awesome, no matter what. :)

Now, to maybe actually learn how to play it... and then New Nick and I can both play guitar at game / after game. Rock on. :)

No End of the Work Week Wisdom this week. I will soon have a guitar. What more do you want from me? :)
