there is an immense amount of anxiety in not wanting to break a piece of wood that’s like three hours of pay but needing to make physical irreparable changes to it. getting the neck to fit right was a challenge and it does wiggle a bit if u put a lot of force into it but i think guitar strings tension isn’t a ton of force anyway so it should be ok? like i wouldn’t trust bass string tension with my work here but worst case scenario it might just need some truss rod adjustment to get the intonation right. i did pretty ok with the hardware installation, ignoring the fact that the bottom strap button isn’t well aligned lol.

i’m back burnering the finish because ope i am indecisive! and am gonna look into figuring out the electronics because i honestly know nothing about guitar pickups aside from that they’re little magnets with copper wire circles that turn string wiggles into electron wiggles because if you wiggle metal near a magnet it makes the magnetic field do the same wiggles and then those wiggles cause electrons in the copper to also do a wiggle and you can then amplify that and make it into louder air wiggles??

i’ve been trying to get back into coffee cause i used to really like it in high school and college. and like i’m a just milk (ideally steamed) in coffee kinda girl so it’s definitely healthier than my usual habit of grabbing a redbull before work. but i’m rapidly realizing that the whole “has adhd” thing makes adding a task with a lot of steps to a morning routine means it is just not going to happen.

i love the process measuring beans, grinding them, boiling some water and then using either the aeropress or a ceramic pour over. like it’s almost a meditative ritual. it’s the same reason my fav way to do cannabis is with a dry bud vape where i can thoroughly clean the whole thing, grind some bud pack it, and use it. like the steps to getting there is part of the enjoyment for me.

but like god when i have a time limit on things like that they instantly become worse for me. i guess it is more of an excuse to use it as a purely enjoyment thing when i have the time instead of a “this is part of my daily routine”

this is my third fall working in retail pharmacy. this friday will be my third black friday. i’m so excited to find out if any patients decide to follow the tradition of unironically asking me if there’s any black friday deals on name brand prescription drugs (there aren’t and it will feel even more dystopian if there ever are).

that’s right boys girls and enbies, we got one
