Recovery, Jamming, Etc

Well, i think i can say i'm able to walk again now. I don't need crutches, and I don't need the giant ski boot. It's still a bit sore from time to time (esp when i forget my anti-inflammatory like i did this morning) and i've been keeping it wrapped for good measure, but I think it's on the mend. Got a few more PT sessions to do, but they're helping and it's doing well.

Now more exciting stuff: we got to have a band practice yesterday! For our first time jamming together, i think we sounded pretty awesome, and it was a lot of fun. Man, I've missed that. I love my SG too - it's a great instrument. I don't play it enough because i usually play acoustic when i'm on my own. Hopefully this will become a regular(ish) thing. At this point, we're just gonna see where we can make this go. We're all wanting to write some great stuff to play together and hoping play some local shows when we're up to it. I'm excited about this. I really hope we can make it work.

Apart from that, we haven't done much. Oh, we did buy a Wii Points card at the mall on saturday & i downloaded Mario 3, which we can now play on our Wii. The Virtual Console thing is a pretty awesome idea.

Well - i've gotta run for now.

Yeah... it DID kinda sound awesome for a first time thing, didn't it? Maybe we can break ourselves in at the Coffee House... if Ginger lets us... ;)

Penguinsushi says...

Yeah, i thought of that. It'd be a good time when we're ready. ~PS

I'm gonna burn a new disc and get the lyrics for a few new songs that we might wanna try. I broke out the Phish... but I think you'll like it. Saturday might work well again, but I won't say for certain until later in the week. AND, if next Saturday works for gaming, we might set-up in the spare 'oom beforehand?

Penguinsushi says...

Heh. Sounds good. I'm up for for whenever we can. We could take over Spare 'Oom for a pre-game practice as far as i'm concerned - or, for that matter, we could just practice at your place earlier in the day if that works better for you. ~PS

I have to tell you man... your camera shots make you look like you are EXCESSIVELY bored or sleepy sometimes. But I would prolly also sh%@ a brick if you had some sort of vaudevillian pose during the camera shot too...

A lot of the time i *am* pretty tired. If i stay still for a while, i tend to get tired. That's why i generally get up and walk around every so often. Also, i haven't been sleeping so well lately. But yeah, they're usually like that - i never promised entertainment. Heh. ~PS

*seconds Hippie's vote for vaudevillian poses*
