Dicey Reilly, Perks and Roving

Hey...

Today I got up and played music. Around 12, I took Ian to the fields at KSC to meet Ed. I also called up various members of Surry Utd. To let them know that football would be happening. I then made my way to the bank to do bank stuff, and ran into Chris O'Connor's grandparents. I asked them about the O'C, and we had a brief conversation. Chris's Grandmother said that she was exhausted from the visit from one of Chris's friends who you probably know, and that she deserved a very expensive lunch.

After bank stuff was completed, I went over to play some ball. 8 of us turned up, and had a very exhausting and violent game. Gangly Nate Hardy hit me so hard in the shin that it still hurts when my jeans move. I managed to score some goals, and sent someone sprawling flat on their back. Ed was as amazing at the game as he always was, and Ian was much better. I now have three developing and painful bruises and quite the headache.

After this, we stopped at CVS to get drinks and ran into Patty Cressy, who is doing just fine. When I got home, I played more music outside and mowed the rest of our lawn.

Tonight I am going to go to bed at a reasonable hour, and get up at one also.. By one, I mean 8.

So it seems that I may be working very soon. Right now I have enough money in the account and cigar box to buy a suitable mandolin and still be able to indulge in Sunkist Orange Soda and $5 gas for a few more months. I am looking at purchasing a Giannini GBSM1 mandolin. It is a Brazilian mandolin, or bandolim as they choose to call it. They are pretty cheap for good mandolins, at around $220 but are made of quality materials and have 3 year warranties. I have also decided what to to with my cumbus. I am going to turn it into a Banjo ukulele, which just happen to be awesome things. I am going to build a new neck out of maple or mahogany, and attach it to the metal body with the already existing screw mechanism. I am looking forward to the project.

I also hope to have something more interesting to tell you very soon. Please do not stop visiting, and feel free to vote in my little pole if you have any complaints/ compliaments/urinary difficulties...
