Let me drill around your face

Today started off with a fantastic trip to the dentist at 8:00 AM for my bi-yearly cleaning. Everything looked good… especially the girl taking the folders at the counter as I was leaving.

Doc: You talked to Jon lately? He still single?
Me: I think he’s still single… we’re in the same boat
Doc: Sometimes it’s better to be in the boat than in the water

Amen to that! . . . I think.

I know you all got a kick earlier when Glen was talking about giving Benedryl to kids to get them to sleep. One lady called in and said Bendryl with Motrin works well too. I just thought it was a joke when J-mo was talking about giving it to kids to make them quiet… but it turns out everyone does it.

Speaking of kids, Sara recently inquired about my thoughts on starting a family. I told her I was content not having kids for the time being, and enjoying living vicariously, in that respect, through my friends that already have kids. I’m about as close to having kids as Ivan is to Connecticut.

Hurricane Ivan will be paying us a visit in the next day or two. It’ll be interesting to see how much rain and wind we get. This morning my dad was on the roof putting some sealant around the chimney and Scratchy climbed up the ladder and was walking around on the roof! What a crazy cat. Who let the cat up! Who Who Who Who… Who let the cat up. Who Who Who Who

Crank it to 4. That’s what I did with the Legacy last night… after running the FX send/return through the G-Force so I could control the overall output level. The lead tone at 4 is pretty good, but the clean channel got a little less crisp. More tweaking. I’m still not satisfied with the lead channel fully. While the distortion is excellent for rhythm and chording, I can’t get good “smooth and sticky” sustain out of it that I like for legato playing. I hooked up the DS-1 and of course that helped, but once again more tweaking is required.

Had an uneventful lunch today. Did the music store and hit up Chic Fil A. Managed to keep busy at this office this afternoon, between talking to Sara, tracking down Tiffany, visiting with Mindy, and watching Hurricane Ivan on weather.com.

Not much else going on in Decaturville.
