I started practicing piano again in earnest this weekend.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n
The cold hurt my poor little arthritic fingers, but once I had a chance to warm them up a bit things weren’t sounding so bad.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n
And it felt<\/em> damn good.\u00c2\u00a0 To have it all make sense again.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n Or at least start to.<\/p>\n I’m going to try make that a habit from now on.\u00c2\u00a0 I think I need it.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s another form of catharsis, release of emotion through music perhaps?\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n This is choppy and I’m tired.\u00c2\u00a0 Sent the hubby out to play with some of his frat\u00c2\u00a0buddies.\u00c2\u00a0 I declined the invitation to join because I have no desire to get home drunk\u00c2\u00a0at midnight and try to wake up at the pre-buttcrack of dawn also known as 4am.\u00c2\u00a0 I don’t think it really counts as the crack of dawn because the moon is still quite dominant at that time of\u00c2\u00a0night and I think even the roosters are still fast asleep since it doesn’t get light for another 2-3 hours depending on the season.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n So yeah, pass on that.<\/p>\n But once again I sit here trying to drug myself into sleep and it’s not working and I’m starting to really freak out because now it’s 9pm.\u00c2\u00a0 Which means even if I were to fall asleep this very second, I will still only get seven hours of sleep.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n Sigh.<\/p>\n At this rate I should be overjoyed if I get six and a half.\u00c2\u00a0 Six is probably a more realistic number and it makes me sad.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n I like sleep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I started practicing piano again in earnest this weekend.\u00c2\u00a0 The cold hurt my poor little arthritic fingers, but once I had a chance to warm them up a bit things weren’t sounding so bad.\u00c2\u00a0 And it felt damn good.\u00c2\u00a0 To have it all make sense again.\u00c2\u00a0 Or at least start to.
