Wherein She Sets Forth the Final Countdown

With just thirteen ephemeral days and one guitar quiz left between me and the big 3-0, I propose a list.

  • Number of times in the past when I've really stuck by a New Year's resolution: 0
  • Number of New Year's resolutions I stuck to in 2005: 1 (hurrah!)
  • Number of times I've changed my strings this year: 2, embarrassingly enough
  • Number of times I've carried my guitar on the subway: 6 or so
  • Number of days I haven't practiced: fewer than you'd think
  • Number of public concerts I've played this year: 3--two BBQs and a Shambhala feast
  • Number of chords I know quickly and by heart: I'm going to say 15, but this is a guesstimate
  • Number of lessons I've had with Bob Parins: 20, give or take a few, since July
  • Number of guitar quizzes I have coming up: 1 (next week)

For more information on the test coming up, or to spy on Bob's other students' work, feel free to visit the Grand Guitar Blog.
