snow?!

ugh.
ugh ugh.
it snowed today, a whole lot.
yesterday it was sunny and moderately (comparatively) warm outside, and today it was overcast and snowed all afternoon on into the evening. gross. i want the sun back, i want the warmth back, pleeeaaaassseeee.

woke up and went to work. worked an 8 hour shift instead of 5 because they asked if i could. why yes, i would like to get a bigger paycheck, thanks much! i think i'm going to call tomorrow morning to see if they want me to come in early to help. it's going to be super busy and they asked me before if i wanted to work more hours this saturday.

but today i got paid, and praise the Lord, i now have money. spare money. it feels good.

i am so hoping that i get a good sized tax return. i've been looking at guitar pedals.
1. footswitch board for my amp. 4 channels with a volume/wah pedal and tuner built in. $100. i've wanted a switch board for a while, and this will be awesome.
2. Loop pedal. i would love to be able to play something like a simple chord progression and then have it loop for me to practice riffs/soloing over it.
3. big muff usa pi distortion/sustainer pedal. recommended by kellen. i've read good things about it, and Thomas Erak uses it.... haha so i think it's worth it.

so i want those in that order, and i also really want the microkorg synth. that would be fun to play with. west's friend said he'd sell me his mircokorg for $300. it's $400 new. if i've got the funds, i think i'm going to take him up on the offer. yay musical instruments!

mm i'm sleepy.
today was good.
my best friend might be taking a big step in his life. i hope he steps well.
no, not just hope, i pray he does.
you should pray for him too.

goodnight.

i just learned about this and wanted to tack it on to this post.

C.S. Lewis married a woman whom he knew had cancer. she died 4 years after they married. i really would have liked to be able to meet him, he is an incredibly remarkable man.
