This morning I woke up at 4 AM.

I had planned to go to the knitting factory after work last night. But after a warm shower, I was plenty tired and collapsed into bed at about 10. I woke up at 4 and plied myself with a few cups of Sumatra. Than I began obsessively working at some guitar stuff. I decided to start writing down my music using actual treble clef notes instead of tablature, which I usually use, due to laziness. I'm not an especially technical music, but I can read music if I have to and decided that it wasn't that hard for me to write out the music, and for some reason it made it feel more legitimate. I remember hearing from somebody that Elvis Costello felt that learning music theory was "liberating." I have had the inclination lately to become liberated in that way. There's a time and a place for everything, because honestly, I haven't felt that way until now.
