Yeah, yesterday. Wednesday.
As noted, we went for a nice run in the morning. I ended up getting myself into work by around 9:00 AM, which was awesome. I spent most of the day coming up with a way for us to make it easier for developers to create new widgets/layouts/brands. I think it'll be pretty cool. It's always been a process fraught with errors, as it requires a great many very manual edits and copies. With any luck, this will mitigate some of that error-proneness and help us automate the process a bit. Good times.
After work, I took the short way home and gathered up myself, an iPad, some staff paper, two guitars, an amp, a capo, and a guitar stand and shuffled my way over to Jason and Kat's, where we subsequently went out to Framingham to Mark's.
Practice was good - we had a few awesome impromptu jams, one of which was pretty bluesy. Also practiced a few of our classics. Ob-la-de, Ob-la-da's guitar business still eludes me. It's very weird - no matter what I do, it somehow sounds like shit. I'm not out of tune. I'm sure I'm playing the right chord. It just... doesn't work, somehow. I think I need to be playing an acoustic for that song - the electric just doesn't work. It requires more chunka than Mr. Les Paul can provide.
Oh, and my stupid, $10 capo from Target died and wouldn't hold down the strings. That's what I get for buying cheap. Sigh.
We stayed pretty late last night - I think cause everyone was enjoying themselves. Jason sounds awesome on his new drums. I was pleasantly, delightedly, and excitedly surprised. Good job, dude! You rock. I practically thought there was a drum machine in the room or something.
Anyway, after practice, I headed home, unloaded my stuff, and more-or-less went right to bed.
