things i am asking the universe (and my friends) for help attaining
you can help even just by sending good thoughts my way
+ physical health
this means more walking, more dancing, more jumping around like a crazy.
+ more music
hearing it, seeing it, making mixes of it, receiving mixes of it, playing it, practicing it, recording it, discovering it. more!!!
+ more music pals
players of both guitar and accordion to talk shop with and be somewhat taken under their wing by. need a mentor. need help. can't learn the ropes in a vacuum
+ more random happy
+ more collaborations
yay a new zine collarboration is in the works. want more like this
+ more shows. i heart performing for other people
+ more rowdy
+ more picnics and almost naps under the sun
+ less focus on the bad stuff
+ less getting stuck in my own head
+ more singing along
+ more dumb goofy ridiculous corny happy
the qualifiier is that i know i am my own worst enemy in terms of this. i often am overbooked, overtired, and just not very available. that doesn't mean these aren't good goals to have.

I've been a solitary guitar player for too long, and want people to play with for fun. I don't know if I'm mentor material, though.

One of the most best things I have realized that has helped me enormously in the past 13+ months is the feeling of "community" for people in recovery. I have, for a long time, wanted to do a similar "community" thing for artists.
One of my mentors has a writer's room that is a standing date for writers friends.
I think it would be cool to have a place you knew that people would gather in, and just be able to roll in on any given Sunday morning. Like, OK, so if we picked the LGBTXYZ center, or the back room at Mission Creek Cafe(Valencia between 20th & 21st), you could say "OK, on Sundays from 11-2, drop in bring your notebook, post-it notes, laptop, whatever. Hey, if no one shows up, at least you got off of your ass. Have a coffee. Write 19 words hang out. And if lots of people show you have a"Write-in" or a "chat-in" or give out scrips and have people read a scene you are working.
I dunno....too optimistic? Lame? :-|
