scored a table for my synths for $10. a little beat up, but it works. i mean, a table needs to be sturdy, not pretty. sounds unexciting, but i've been looking for something the right size for months. that means i can finally get my synths and other machines off the floor and hooked up and get my pedals organized underneath...

in hindsight, i realize i was in a state of shock through the whole period of time i evicted myself back in late '11. i left well over $1000 worth of furniture in the apartment. i didn't even try and sell it! it didn't even cross my mind, i was so fucked up about it. so, i ended up in windsor without any tables or bookshelves....

guess i took a few days off. was super sore from walking, and more interested in reading. that's happened a few times recently, and i'm really not used to it. guess i'm out of shape from spending so much time inside and curled up this winter. and not smoking. seems weird, but if you're a smoker you get it. i'll snap out of it when i get my border papers and can start to get out to see some shows in detroit.

hopefully, the first one i'll be able to catch will be swans in late june. the time frames are sketchy. but hopefully. that's an excellent start, actually. and i'm gonna be pissed if i miss it. btw, there's a new swans record out today. so, you should stop reading my facebook page and go listen to it.

i've got acoustic strings, but they seem weird and i might replace them. haven't strung it up yet.

i otherwise think this track is going to complete itself pretty quickly.

the next one up is a short renaissance guitar piece that i've wavered about assigning to piano. there's going to be a few choice renders as well as at least one built up version of the track.

it's funny how quickly the machine will jolt you awake, though.
