Thank you Teela, as always.
Long story short, I have one rental I am pursuing that is awesome in every facet, except how expensive it is. IT's $3,400 up front (acceptable) and $1,600/mth, which is steep. That's in Fishtown, near the other one and Rivers. For now I am moving forward with it because the other other one in Fairmount disappeared. Sucks. It also has an upper outside rooftop that me and whoever can jam on.
On the way to the rental I got SMASHED by a thunderstorm I had an umbrella, but two cars splashed HUGH puddles all over me. Nightmare. Had to head back and change my clothes.
Ended up in a bad area between the rental shelter and some sweet young girl told me politely how' that is for me and how I should smoke pot instead. She gave me the cutes heart pound. I wish her and her family well, but I didn't give her any money.
Further on the way back from the rental I went to a guitar shop and ended with what I feel is the perfect guitar for me right now. About $800 with Tuner, picks, etc. It's much better than any of the Washburns I used to play. I'll tell the crew about the specifics of it later. I can still play barre chords, etc. pretty good, still know the feel good scale, etc. In the guitar shop they did a killer job and when blood came gushing out of the hole from the hospital injection, I said I wasn't shooting up laughing really hard about what a funny Gamelive story it would be. Thinking back it's not that funny, I Said I'm into Tosh, I think everything is funny, etc. and They were cool with me using the bathroom for a while. I couldn't stop laughing. On the way out the one really hot girl kept coming over the top of my corniness about directions to something with a half smile on her face. It was awesome.
Jammed with a REALLY good blues band for a bit. Shredded for a bit then sounded like like shit then totally shredded. They approved.
Somehow my phone sent the link to Lampshades on Fire by Modest Mouse with a little cursing like you gotta check this shit out to an ex coworker. She said she'll check it out but who is this? I laughed hysterically.
Grabbed a steak from this amazing resteraunt/bar. They're not into my kind of music But when I said I'm going to give the Fries to a bum they threw in a nice cloth napkin and hand satiznier. I gave it to a nice bum in a Flyers shirt and said go Flyers. HE said God Bless you and I said no god bless you.
Tomorrow I have plans with the prior referenced Indian guy Papi. We'll play heads up poker at an outside place somewhere. I'll play some songs I used to know (Modesto, Reno approved), Fuckin with my head, maybe Desire. Gotta head back to the shop for a strap as well.
Harmonica holder came in too.
Another guy invited me to the "massage parlor". It's real. Might pull the trigger on that soon. Let's vote on that.
So, really crazy day, but feels like a win, especially if I get that rental. If I have to work OT and/or take on a second job it'll be worth it.
Hope you guys had a good one, even Dingo. When I smash a fake beer bottle over his head and upload it to youtube, after I go viral, will he still be laughing?
Also, I saw an eagle attack a pebble, pissed my pants and everyone was laughing, then Adam Sandler pissed his pants too, and suddenly it became the cool thing to do.
Have a GOOWUH
