It&#8217;s been a rough couple of days with hardly any time to myself, lots of things happening at once. I suppose you&#8217;ve heard that before. Probably many, many times before. From me, I mean.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the overloaded state, one does maintain their priorities, of course. At least they should. And mine is obvious, though there are two, and you could guess what they would be. I took the day off from training yesterday so that leaves one: epic jam in Hollow Way Studios.<\/p>\n<p>I captured it on my phone, so the quality is shitty. There is no bass pickup and hardly any drums to be heard. You need a mic that can handle those frequencies and the iPhone mic is basically the opposite of that. And my phone only lets me send about 7 minutes at a time, so here&#8217;s a random piece from the middle:<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F89207731&player_height=&player_height_multi=&player_width=&player_type=visual&color=&auto_play=&show_comments=&show_user=&buying=&sharing=&download=&show_artwork=&show_playcount=&hide_related=\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Jam was peaceful and pure for about 2 hours, and after everyone had left I was ready to dive back into work. Which I did. For about 20 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>And then I woke upon the couch and it was 4a. I moved to the regular bed and woke up with the alarm at 8. Another evening gone, another day begun.<\/p>\n<p>But I feel good today. The jams in Hollow Way affect me like this. Tuesdays are usually pretty good for this reason. The residues of playing are still there, and the feeling of staying creative and productive stays with me.<\/p>\n<p>Because of some new responsibilities, I have to wear blazers now. Here, I&#8217;ll snap a pic from my laptop camera right now.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.obsidiannoise.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/Photo-on-4-23-13-at-12.11-PM.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2549 aligncenter\" title=\"Photo on 4-23-13 at 12.11 PM\" src=\"http:\/\/www.obsidiannoise.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/Photo-on-4-23-13-at-12.11-PM-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.obsidiannoise.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/Photo-on-4-23-13-at-12.11-PM-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.obsidiannoise.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/Photo-on-4-23-13-at-12.11-PM.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Oh, but check out my jeans.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.obsidiannoise.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/Photo-on-4-23-13-at-12.12-PM.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2550 aligncenter\" title=\"Photo on 4-23-13 at 12.12 PM\" src=\"http:\/\/www.obsidiannoise.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/Photo-on-4-23-13-at-12.12-PM-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.obsidiannoise.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/Photo-on-4-23-13-at-12.12-PM-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.obsidiannoise.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/Photo-on-4-23-13-at-12.12-PM.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>DON&#8217;T WORRY MONKEYS!!<\/p>\n<p>Still wearing Limmers.<\/p>\n<p>Close ups.

When I would wear super heavyweight socks for hiking, it could be a little tight, especially after 5-6 hours and your feet swell a little. So I called Ken up at the Limmer Boot Company and he had a new pair, Wide, coming my way soon. They arrived last night and I&#8217;m thrilled with them. All clean like this, they&#8217;re definitely work appropriate, no? And at the same time I know that when the zombie\u00a0apocalypse\u00a0comes, my feet will be the last thing to worry about as I trallomp through the woods with my samurai sword and backpack to New Eden, where the sun shines, the dogs are loyal, and the girls don&#8217;t kill you. You know, the opposite of here.<\/p>\n<p>Have a great Tuesday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi Monkeys, As promised, here I am.
