the band really sucks

           TUESDAY 7/31/18 10:20PM--As far as *I* am concerned the Combustibles are wasting their time
practicing...seemingly the other band members don't hear how bad we are, or they don't care...Apparently, Barry doesn't want me to play alongside him Thursday night, he didn't ask me...unfortunately, Jeff does...I think Jeff wants me to play exactly what's on the recording...I have GOT to learn how to politely say NO when certain people ask me to do what I don't wanna do...I invited Angela; only God knows why...IF she comes to the OTWC tomorrow, I intend to uninvite her...or at least find out how likely she'll actually be there...
     WEDNESDAY10:45AM--In part because I left my hat at practice, and in part because I want more than one, I went to Target and bought another fedora--a Blue one...I think it fits at least as well as the first one...after my (likely brief) mid-day nap I'm gonna TRY to find the CD that Jeff Jones probably made for me and work on learning his songs...
     4:35PM--I went thru (I believe) each and every container in the basement looking for the Jeff Jones CD...I didn't find it...I found lotsa pictures, the receipt for the car I bought from a "friend" back in 2006 (?) or 2003...lotsa cassette tapes and VHS tapes...and some bad song lyrics (mine)...I was hoping to find all my 45s, but I didn't...I can't believe I'd throw them away...
                           I'm secretly hoping Jeff will UNhire me, but I don't think he will...my plan for tomorrow is to check my Musical gear to see if I can determine where my electrical problem is...I THINK it might be a potentiometer, specifically the master volume knob on Butterscotch...I suspect I'll be using "eBay" as my FIRST choice for a little while...
