2002-03-04 - 12:02 p.m. I spend far, far too much time thinking about what I'd do if I suddenly acquired some sort of magical or superhuman powers. I just hope that the realisation that it's never going to happen never hits me. - It's not entirely true that I haven't learned anything new on the guitar in the last 6 months. In fact I've learned quite a lot of new things; it's just that I haven't practised any of them regularly enough to start using them as recreation rather than having to work on them and feel like I'm working. But, hey, the pentatonic scale started out like that for me, and now it's the most natural thing in the world. I just need to be patient with myself, and not get angry just because I have a slow pace when it comes to learning new music. I'm not trying to become a rock star or a professional musician of any description; I'm just trying to enjoy myself. The realisation that I really, really need music in order to stay sane shouldn't make me change the formula that allowed me to get here in the first place, which was: play something every day, but give up as soon as you feel like it. Being allowed to fail is important. - "All I want Is what you want" - Pet Shop Boys
