Yesterday was Christmas. Today is the day after.
There is always a let down after a holiday. I'm not drinking, so I am not hung over, but I feel a bit melancholy and sad. That is, until I look at the cool black and white Fender bass guitar my hubby got me. With an amp! And then I feel excited because I'm going to teach myself to play. I can learn right?
Plus, gal bassists are bad ass. Kathy Valentine of the Go-Gos. Kim Deal of The Pixies. Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth.
I wish my name began with a K, so I could fit it. Kanita. KEM.
Cool Jerk has a cool baseline. As does Gigantic by the Pixies. Any song by Sonic Youth. Oh and Fascination Street by The Cure.
I'm 54 years old, sober as fuck and I want to learn bass. That's an anti cliche. So let's make my new year resolution to be an anti cliche. Let's not fit the mold. I am gonna be me.
Just me. Shih tzus and all.
