Ew. Never again will I have the Sunrise Omelette at Baker's Square. Kinda stays with you for the rest of the day. Mostly cause of the onions and green peppers.

Today was a busy day and I'm making it longer through staying up so late.

But, I was productive at least. I strung a new song together, and came up with a possibly new piece of music. I'd like to think my songwriting is getting better. I think once I can sit myself down with a few good songs, and a lot of resources/instruments, good things will come of it.

Kevin told me once not too long ago that I need to move away from band-dependent music.. by that, I mean music that's kind of boring on its own, but would be fine with a band behind it (which I don't have, remember). That means, writing more interesting lines. Throwing in single notes, riffs, etc. I've been trying to do this. It's a slow process, because I'm really not that good at playing anything related to lead guitar. So no rock-star solos for me. Anyhow, I've been trying to take his advice cause I respect his opinion on music.

So, here I is.

Alright, I think it's time for bed. I may actually be tired now.. still kind of excited about a slight (like .005%) increase in skill/talent/whatever. I at least like what I'm writing. The song I did tonight, I'm not happy with how it sounds bare bones on acoustic (really quietly on the acoustic.. yay dorms) because it conforms to a certain sound a little too much. But I think if I experiment with other elements it could be much better. There's always potential for better.

Uh, yeah. Like I said. Bedtime.
