Guitars part 2

I have an interesting week. Month end at work is always stressful and waiting to hear if you get a promotion makes it more so. A friend of ours, Kymm broke up with her boyfriend, not that this is earth shattering news, but it brings me to certain conclusion: If you dated someone in the past and they treat you like shit, they will do it again.

Now, I never liked this guy, as a matter of fact I wanted to beat this shit out of him on more than one occasion, he did something this time that was utterly despicable. He bought Kymm a guitar a few months back, then we she dumped him he demanded it back. Kymm did this and be came very depressed. Be ing a lover of the guitar and knowing it doesn't take long to be attached to one, I felt very bad. So today Mrs. Ronnie and I took her to Guitar Center to help her find a new love in her life. After going through the store for about 2 hours Kymm decided on the Ibanez Artcore hollowbody. The very same guitar I have been toying with the idea of getting. While she was choosing that axe I was playing all the others on my wish list. I played the Gibson ES 335 and the Epi Casino, then we came back to our place and I played the Ibanez. After all of this I realized one thing....I can do all the same things on those guitars on my Fender Stratocaster. So my decision right now is to keep on with what I got and wait for another time for the others.

Kymm on the other hand found a new love and possibly a new way to let her inner punk rock chick out. I'm not sure but I think she might going back on her own very soon to get new strings put on her new purchase.......she was swooning at the the guitar repair guy in the back of the store.

So even when things seem hopeless, new possibilities are always around the corner. Except in Iraq. Am I the only one who finds it ironic that the two journalists that converted to Islam are from Fox?????? And Rumsfeld, You are an asshole!!!

good for Kymm and good for you... music can heal the soul!

iraq does seem pretty hopeless right now... won't be much left of it when dubya gets done with it, that's damn for sure... and yes, rummy is an asshole extraordinaire!

i admit to not having been following the news lately and hadn't heard about the journalists... not surprised tho.

i'm glad your friend was able to keep a grasp on her passion. =)
