\t\t\t\tcheating on my .MOBI charter to only use the foldable keyboard and a
\nmobile device. not really cheating though because the keyboard quit
\nworking and the phone is a piece of crap, so i’m using the netbook as
\nbackup until suitable replacements can be procured. the contract on teh
\ncurrent POS phone is up soon and i have my eye on the Samsung Galaxy Note,
\nwith a new keyboard. the Samsung would be my first-ever non-QWERTY phone,
\nsave for a short-lived flip phone i had after losing an early Treo. i
\nmight still change my mind about that phone, though.<\/p>\n
tired tired tired. no luck sleeping well. not eating right.<\/p>\n
today i ventured out to the 181 to get a bound copy of “The Etude”
\ncomplete set from 1891. it smells musty and fills my sinuses with muck. i
\nmight not be able to scan it without a facemask. seriously.<\/p>\n
i hauled $105 in quarters and pennies to the bank today. i started the
\nprocess of unloading my buttloads of change a few weeks ago but got lazy
\nand stopped with the dailiy deposits of about $100. i got the feeling that
\nthe tellers at the bank thought i was shady, or up to something. if i am
\nthen it’s lost on me what scheme i’m trying to pull off. i just accumulate
\nthings, and change is no exception, but now i try to decumulate.<\/p>\n
i might be buying a new piano. it’s not clear at the moment what i might
\nbe getting myself into as far as financing goes, or what the rest of this
\nyear’s financial future holds for me, but i should easily pass the
\ncredit-check. i tried these new pianos in December and was not mightily
\nimpressed. it’s the newer generation of Hybrid Pianos, which are
\ncombination “real” and digital. the action is claimed to be identical to a
\nconcert grand, and it seemed to live up to that claim on my brief use of
\nit. but as a digital instrument i expected more bells and whistles. those
\nthings are sometimse considered toys, but a few days spent using the organ
\nsound on my current Roland digital piano changed the way I thought of
\nBach’s keyboard music, and for the better. but there is no organ sound on
\nthe Yamaha Avant Grand. maybe it’s achievable through MIDI? i never really
\nwarmed up to MIDI. i imagine that the action of the Avant Grand keyboard
\nis not conducive to an “attackless” organ sound. that would be the best
\nexplanation for why that very basic sound included on virtually any
\ndigital keyboard is not included on the Avant Grand.<\/p>\n
