i heart fairfax and my accordion
May. 11th, 2008 07:48 pmi am driven crazy by not yet having the skill to do what i have in my head on my accordion
GAH
SO FRUSTRATED
just practiced for an hour and literally banged my head in frustration so many times
figured out something cool for the throw the goat song
(e backwards stuff on treble) in case i forget later
but GAH
i did though figure something out about a friendship i have been looking for though
in other news
today the wind blew me over to marin. i tried very hard to get lost and did not succeed. i did succeed in buying a very cool pair of earrings and losing one of them between the store and the car. i also got a cuppa coffee and sat in a gorgeous park in fairfax.
then i went to target and ran into folks from my old job that it was amazing to see
AND THEN i got the wife and i takeout from our favorite mexican place in berkeley and brought it home to her
it was after all of that that me and my accordion bonded, argued, laughed and cried.

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.
