I have been babying my fingers on weak strings for far too long, and it is time to rock out painfully at first on the cumbersome acoustics. It&#8217;s okay, though, because they sound so purdy. At any rate, I played what could <em>mistakenly<\/em> be construed as too much guitar at Bradley this weekend whilst visiting Allison. I learned a new song, which was good, especially since it was a song that I happen to like a lot. We didn&#8217;t get to play DDR due to strangers (of course you can&#8217;t just play DDR in front of strangers, that&#8217;s wierd!) and Allison&#8217;s temporarily bum leg, but that&#8217;s ok. It just gives her more time to train for when she visits Augustana and we <em>do<\/em> get to play. Allison: I challenge you to beat me at any song on any difficulty. Do it, I dare you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>That was a fun weekend. My fingers are crying.
