duet for guitars

i've recently been jonesing to learn how to play the guitar, as i have nothing to do while my back heals from surgery. i made a deal with a girl on fb to buy her guitar, but i wouldn't be surprise if she flakes.

that not being the point; the point being that my interest in guitar playing is a new addition to the table. i asked my playlist how i'm going to meet my guy, the answer was 'duet for guitars, no. 3' by m ward. the guitar will be part of how we meet. it's something we'll have in common; i want to learn, he can teach me.

mm, how cool, how indie. how the over-achiever snags on something, drops out of the 'everyday race' and meets her love, a simple minstrel if you're a ren-fest'er, which i am not. ah, mid-eval times, one of white people's most sentimental eras. 

i'll focus and see if i had any lives in european medieval times... yea, i can see myself as a man, older with white hair and a long white beard, but thin, not like santa. i see as though i'm looking through his vision -- in that life, i'm witting in a sturdy wooden chair, in some sort of tent or hut with just a doorway. i walk to the opening and i'm on the side of a quite steep hill, covered in a thin layer of mossy grass. the landscape rises dramatically like machu picchu but it's in northern europe. looks like modern day sweden, but mid-evally ago. i don't really know what i do in the life, everything looks gray and white, my skin, the landscape, my robe. no metal helmet with horns; i was no viking. i can see an impending black sky approaching from the distance... the darkness looks threatening, the result is perished mental health. it's just really depressing -- that's what i see when i try to place myself in medieval europe.

that's kind of interesting. depends if you wanna italicize kind of or interesting. that's kind of interesting. that's kind of interesting. means two opposite things. isn't language so fascinating...
