I don't work again until Thursday and have no plans except for tomorrow. I would love to call someone and figure something out but I have no backbone and fear rejection so I will just wait/hope that someone will reach out to me first.
^ I wasn't horribly bullied when I was younger, but the one girl who was nastiest to me died a couple years ago in a drinking and driving accident. That was pretty weird.CT: Old school bully has added me to Facebook. Now life is well and truly weird...
I honestly love how people who wouldn't give you the time of day in school or were snotty or whatever, immediately want to talk to you and act like you were best friends in school as soon as graduation is over.CT: Old school bully has added me to Facebook. Now life is well and truly weird...
I spotted the guy who gave me the most, and really only, trouble in school - which was weird in itself because we'd never talked, I barely even knew him so why give me trouble? - a while back in our small-town "slammer" newspaper; he had been arrested for probation violation.^ I wasn't horribly bullied when I was younger, but the one girl who was nastiest to me died a couple years ago in a drinking and driving accident.

Amen to that! I'm WAY more into bass than guitar (Though I love both) and Bass chords are a personal favorite.CT: Playing chords on the bass makes playing the same chord on the guitar a f*cking breeze.
I really like cranking the fuzz and playing some droning riffs. I love the growl it produces! It's very satisfying!Amen to that! I'm WAY more into bass than guitar (Though I love both) and Bass chords are a personal favorite.
I'm more of a RHCP and Primus style bassist. Lot's of Funk with slap bass.I really like cranking the fuzz and playing some droning riffs. I love the growl it produces! It's very satisfying!
I love that stuff too, I'm just not good enough to play it well (yet). They may be laid out the same, but the bass guitar and the regular guitar are totally different beasts. That said, I have found that picking up the bass has made me a much better guitarist than I already was.I'm more of a RHCP and Primus style bassist. Lot's of Funk with slap bass.
Ya, I've found the same about myself. But I'm a better bassist, mainly because music is about emotion,and I think the bass just captures my soul in a way the guitar cannot.I love that stuff too, I'm just not good enough to play it well (yet).

I totally agree with your reasoning (though the guitar is more 'me' than the bass)! I still think that, from a strictly performance standpoint, I'm most comfortable on a piano, but the guitar is where so much of my best stuff comes from.Ya, I've found the same about myself.

See, I'm lead singer/bassist for my band, so I really don't get to do a lot of show off stuff on the bass often just because I'm singing at the same time. Guitar is the same way, really. But when it comes to the performance standpoint, I'm more comfortable with the bass, but because I think you can improvise mid show a lot more on the bass. Even if it's something you haven't rehearsed before. If there is a break in my lyrics, time for an improv bass solo.I totally agree with your reasoning (though the guitar is more 'me' than the bass)!

She hasn't changed at all (appearance wise, at least - cow) but considering we're meant to be meeting up at New Year's (I'm friends with her older sister who is my sister's best mate), perhaps she thought it would be best to attempt an utterly superficial friendship now rather than on the night?I honestly love how people who wouldn't give you the time of day in school or were snotty or whatever, immediately want to talk to you and act like you were best friends in school as soon as graduation is over.
You know what sucks even more? When your friend decides to share this distressing information with you while you're craving the creamy garlic dipping sauces and some bread sticks.You know what sucks? When you accidently stumble on the calorie count of those creamy garlic dipping causes Pizza Pizza sells... and realize that one teensy tiny jar has 500 calories and more grams of fat than a Big Mac.
