I just wanna play...
I've been out in Irvine since Sunday, living it up of course. I went home tonight to have dinner with my folks, and I went early to beat the LA traffic, which I didn't succeed in doing even at 2:30pm. Traffic has definitely gotten worse...
I got home without too much delay, which meant I got home way too early and had nothing at all to do. So I decided to replace the strings on my dad's stratocaster, which were a wreck. I went down to the music store, bought some strings, but I put on the 1st string without enough slack and didn't have tuning room - and when I loosened it, it snapped! The music store was closed and I really wanted to play guitar, so I borrowed my bro's guitar. His strings were even worse, and his 4th string snapped from just tuning. So now I had two broken guitars and nothing to play for all my efforts. Just one of those days...
Luckily in the end, my dad did have an extra set of strings that he got for me when I got home, and I fixed up the strat. He didn't really want to let me borrow it though, so now I have to use my brother's cheap guitar... doh!
