today was spent scrubbing, cleaning, disinfecting, resupplying, mowing, and then finally discussing a million different things with c until way too late.
once everything was done, and the house went quiet, i worked on the explorer a bit more. i hate it. i really really hate it. the finish did not turn out how i had hoped. quite a bit worse actually. but at this point, unless i decide to strip the paint down completely and redo it, i’ve got no other options. i’m not going to strip the paint down and redo it. at least not right now.
so the build continues. all the hardware is mounted, hand tight. I have to go over it all again and make sure there were no mistakes and that everything works, but that will be a problem for not tonight. unless i did something catastrophically wrong with the wiring, I suppose it should come to life tomorrow. i’ll record something and throw it up here unless it’s a total fail. in which case, we shall never speak of this guitar again.
though out the day today, k was exceptionally… affectionate? i’m not complaining, but i am a little suspicious of why all of a sudden. i suspect it has to do with me lending her my car all week next week while hers is in the shop, and me immediately paying for the rental car she had last week when i saw she was stressing about the money. is that my value? is that my worth? am i being too cynical? i don’t know. maybe i’m being overly sensitive.
