Album I want right now: Learning To Bend-Ben Sollee
Breakfast drink this morning: Ti Kwon Yin black tea with milk and sugar
i'm going to make an attempt at learning the guitar for real...that is, all the theory and whatnot. i hope it goes well. i hope i can be patient enough to do it. Starting with learning/memorizing all the notes on the fretboard. This is stuff i should already know...i know. I just get stuck doing the same things, which involves everything but productive practice. If it takes work, I'm done usually. I'm going to try to work past that this time...this may not last. It hasn't lasted yet. We'll see.

Wow, I am definitely going to have to "borrow" your "album i want right now" thing. that's gold man.
I'm also in that same journey. I honestly have gotten a day or so into learning, then gotten distracted or just quit. I found a cool chart that has all the notes on the fretboard on a cleff-type chart. it's pretty bad. i'm e-mailing it to you asap.
you've inspired me to get back on track. maybe, if we're both up for it, we could somehow collaborate on what we're working on. no pressure, of course.
i should be grading papers.
Good luck. I couldn't think of anything else to say. I just wanted you to know that I read your blog.
Not that I'm a guitar genius either, but let me know if you ever have any questions.
I would use it for living. In, that is. I made a small edit which should make things less confusing. I hope your "guitar teaching yourself" has been happening since you wrote that. And definitely ask questions because I would love to answer them.
Joel,
