Well now

 Today I played the piano a bit. It was nice. I've really got worse at it though, can barely play my own tunes these days - and they aren't hard. 

Tim found this cool old pic he took. 

Tuesday was a cool aimless sort of day, felt like lots of time to relax as I didn't have Broc to walk this morning. Noodled on the Opsix and made this very cool ocean sound by sampling it on the S-4 then playing it back with tons of modulators and randomly missed notes, turning the reverb mix to full so it was just a swooshing now and again. Recorded a loop that sounds grand to me. Tried to make a mediational repeating pulse but couldn't get it quite right. I think it might be something I have to sit and play for an hour rather than have a machine set the timing. 
Yesterday's painting is looking more and more interesting - the quick dry via the dehumidifier worked even better than I hoped it would, gave me some lovely patterns. Some of the dried-out watery dots have lost some of their distinction though but I can paint those back in - the parts that were supposed to be ephemeral look great. Will let it stew a while now before I tackle the next layer. Mixing oils and acrylics a good idea, who knew?

Don't think that does it justice as you need to zoom in to the good bits. 

Wednesday night after a chilled day. Walking with Tony tomorrow and then it's Friday again. Time is zipping by and I have this urge to do some nice relaxing, meditational drones. 

Thought for the day. You don't need complicated phrases if you have someone who can break your heart with a single note. Friday did some things that I hope to give to Rick and John 

This basically
