Quetzalcoatl ate me; & general outlines:

ѺSurpass the cookie quota.

ѺReplace the exercise bike with jogging. Actual outdoor movement
can be an innovation to senses like smelling.. because it is tough to
smell whatever TCM movie is playing while on an exercise bike.
There's lots of pollen to suck in and sneeze at when on an outdoor jog.
The challenge of avoiding gopher holes reduces lapsing into mundanity.

ѺTune the ragtag percussion set.
Every hee haw piece of equipment can be fine tuned to something useful.
Empty a hard drive and get it to smoothly accommodate sessions on good ol
cool edit pro 2.1. 
Record drum takes over this and that and this and that and that.
Record guitar over that and that and that and that. Fix the overdrive issue on the
Laney amp.  It needs a 20 pound weight balanced just-so on the dial or it cuts out
like a pro. Even then it still sorta cuts out anyway.
Get headphones without a gorilla tape and metal slide needin to reinforce
the bend to the left ear.

ѺMake each sound somehow useful. Bend it, screw with it in some way to become a
useful sound.  Get in a sauna and sweat until it is some sort of holy moment and take
down notes.  Useful little words. Please, not jibberish.. make use of all available materials.
Mix and mash it.

ѺHave some more cookies. Then exercise some more. Heave and thirst for water
and exercise a little bit more. Then get some water. And probably a nother cookie.
Don't forget vitamin C with whatever you're going to toss into your gullet.
Probably some cookies. Never fritters.  Rice, brown rice, actually, seems ideal.

when there is time for all this.

ѺDraw without reserve. 48 seconds maximum. Something left handed. Then right handed,
48 second maximum. Do like twelve of these, each. Then actually work on something.
Use portraits of background people from the recent parade photoset. Now there are workable,
original sources.

ѺAre the drums tuned okay enough? If the snare sounds like a wet paper napkin, yet in real-time
it sounds fine, where are you setting the recording device? Maybe it is all backwards and I should just leave it way far out of the room. I've been trying really close to the instrument and whatever tension I have on the snare it often sounds like a tacky napkin.  Possibly resort to keyboard overlay for a snare... which is one of the most patience-demanding situations other than watermarking images, de-crackling over-distorted audio files and those sorts of things.
A computer with good RAM would be a saving grace.
Use what ya got!!

ѺRan out of paint markers. Switch to pastel possibly permanently and do not bark at the inevitable aftersmear.

Does any of this stuff satisfy the soul? 
Maybe? If only maybe.. get more done.
Die if you have to, just get more done. Follow suit of the blooming plants..
they're doing fine.. jade green. Okay,  a couple did not make it. The success rates
are pretty lovely for most of all of them. Sunflowers, cucumber.
No Paisley. Only ant eaters eat paisley. 

The luck of a baby preying mantis showing up near them even defined
the bloomers to be something up-lifting in a  world of loud problems or gas exhaust fumes and warring ideologies or whichever.

Better alias; & leave the mystery of the "Phantom Incidents" alone.
Yea it is wear on ye ol heart but leave such occasions alone and move on.
*cryptic mentioning of stuff you don't want to hear about. Blogs are not very
personal. Journals are pretty personal. I'll open up slowly about impromptu anxiety
and close ones visiting the hospital but there's enough sulk in digit.
