Okay so, JM + ANYTHING + VOX = SECKS

IKR?

also as a brony, you are required to have some manner of pony on your guitar or case, you need to get on that.

Getting up early feels GREAT. I've spent the five years since high school being a hyper--...no, you could even call me "semi-pro"--recluse, and now I'm in school again. Doing something productive is amazing. The days are longer since I don't wake up at fucking 3 in the afternoon, I don't feel like a zombie, I actually leave the damn house...everything is just better. My current car isn't a rickety piece of shit; it can actually go above 45mph without shaking like a rudderless plane in a flak storm! AND IT PASSED INSPECTION!
(I rocked the rejection sticker for a year before being busted three times, though I feel proud of that in a strange way.)
Also, we are no longer in immediate danger of losing the house.

I don't have any guitar, bass or amp GAS. Though part of that is probably because I never have any real money. But I did just buy a blem Disaster Transport Jr so fuck yeah. Speaking of GAS, my friend with his sweet-ass job actually offered to buy me that Monolith cab I've been lusting after and then I could pay him back over time. And we may be getting a nice practice space in the near future.
I think I have the best friend ever.

Shit is going pretty well and being in a decent mood a lot of the time feels slightly unnatural. I can even breathe deeply, the near-constant anxiety that's been plaguing me for the past year or so doesn't seem to be around right now. I don't know what to do with myself without the absolute-apathy-that-occasionally-shifts-into-crushing-hopelessness!

This is just so wonderful to hear that it made me happy. So, there.

GET OUT OF MY BRAIN.

Seriously though, my year(s) has been eerily similar and I'm super happy to hear that you're happy dude .
The only thing though is that I need an awesome Monolith cab-buying friend. Hmmmmm...

isn't it wonderful when stuff sucks forever and then, suddenly, something happens which...totally doesn't suck? i spent all last evening playing the new bass, right out till 2AM, couldn't put it down. finding that bass and being able to trade out the old bass + cheap stomps to get it for $80 while living on unemployment was the first really positive thing, other than people offering kindness to me because i'm down (which i'm not minimizing AT ALL), that's happened in my life in months, and i was riding it like an exhausted little kid rides a horse all day. it's the combination of "wow, this great thing happened" and "wow, this reminds me that things happen that aren't shit despite recent trends."

SERIOUSLY. The little treasures you get in between the bad shit are incredible. You have to hold onto them, or at least the memory of them and then it makes wading through all that bad shit slightly easier.
You seem to be really into that bass, glad to hear!

just realized I've been terribly slack in giving status updates on my aunt, who was hospitalized about a month and a half ago...She's finally off the ventilator/up on her feet some..looks like she's on the road to recovery, finally...

It was starting to look pretty bleak for a while there

I'm just in a good mood

Tits. How is it?

It sounds sweet. I need to take it in for service, but I woke up early today and played for 3 hours straight. It sounds good even when quiet, but it can rip.

I'm making a 2x12 and a 1x15 cab to go with it.
