bedroom chronicles:defecting to the other side

if you have read my previous posts you may know my room used to look like this
it now looks like this
 i have moved my bed to the the other side  of the room. oh and that is Head wearing a hat with a head on it i will get to that in a later post
this creates a good amount of floor space for upcycling coffee tableslearning to play guitar or doing some interpretive dance. I WILL DO ONE OF THOSE THINGS ONE DAY. ....... maybe

the world will provide

my wallet was looking a bit of a mess, money kept dropping out of an increasing hole in the bottom, it had gained a compartment where the lining had come away from shell and the button that is meant to  hold it shut had gone awol. i need a new one, but i don't really like spending money. infact i take pleasure in being scrounger so when i spotted this
empty wallet laying in the street it made my day the world knew what i needed and  the world provided. but when i got home i found something in one of the card slots then i found another one in the zip up bit. two plectrums, was the world trying to tell me something and if so what. may the world be tell me to learn to play those guitars it sent my way. or is it trying to remind me that when i write a post with the word guitar in it i get a lot more hits and it would be good to find an excuse write about guitars again,

I'd be famous if my brother hadn't broken my neck

well my previous post about my guitar "i may be missing a nut but I'm cooler than my brother"and "highly strung" are both in my top 10 viewed post (cutting naked ariel in two is number 1 probably because it has the word naked in the tittle) so i thought i wood update you on my music career

i learned some song and went busking got spotted by a record company executive (well he was the CEO actually) and got a 5 album record deal. then my first album "mentally divergent" when to number 1 world wide
well that what should of happened but my brother tried to tune my guitar and rebroke the neck. but i have fixed it now
 then i made a plectrum out of a iceland mint chock chip ice cream tub lid
then my dad made me a  plectrum out of a iceland mint chock chip ice cream tub lid

p.s i almost called this post the "naked truth (I'd be famous if my brother hadn't broken my neck)"

highly strung

as of friday my guitar is whole again and that little irrational voice in the back of my head that claimed i wood be able to play like i was being possessed by the ghost of Hendrix as soon as my guitar was strung has been proved well and truly wrong.

i may be missing a nut but I'm cooler than my brother

because i have two guitars i can't play were as my brother only has one guitar he can't play and simple maths will tell you that makes me one guitar cooler than him
the purple guitar was pulled out of a skip some time ago (before it was purple) and was in a bit of a mess so it became art with the use of a tin of paint and some circuit boards
the other  is a new addition which a neighbor was getting rid of and i think this one stand a chance of being made playable once more so i have been on Amazon ordering replacements for the broken strings and the nonexistent nut and the neck could do with some glue to hold it where it's meant to be.
then i need to tune it. now could of ordered a tuner from amazon 
but there an free app for that sort of thing
