Summertime

Had some time on a computer, so here’s a quick update on stuff.

Nice and warm weather here. Was a bit too warm the day before yesterday, but then a thunder front passed by and it got cooler and less humid. Also, forgive any typos; this keyboard is really old and not very good. Waiting to head out to the airport to pick up the boyfriend who’s arriving today, so that will be nice. Haven’t seen him since Sunday morning.

I’m working on a new song. Or, the lyrics are old, I wrote them when I was here last year. You can find them here. I think I’ll call the song Summertime Lullaby when it’s done. I’ve got a melody for it. Tried to play around with chords a bit on my grandmother’s piano earlier, but the grandfather clock in the living room is so loud that it’s impossible to play anything that’doesn’t go in 60 bpm, besides which you can’t play tight when you’re trying to find chords. So I gave up cause the clock annoyed me so much, but I do have a general key now, at least.

I want to submit this song to the MetaFilter Music July Challenge, which is to make a summer tune. It’ll be a tight deadline to try to finish and record it by the 31st when I get home in the evening on the 26th, but I might just make it.

Definitely going to the beach today. Hope the water is as warm as it was on Tuesday.
