Today I'm going to Bible study, working at the Food Pantry, and uploading the John Good and Friends album, "Honky Tonk Joy". Soon to be available on Spotify, Youtube, and everywhere. Tonight I'll be playing music with The United Gospel Trio, give music lessons, have a fellowship meal, practice piano, and then the service. Praise the Lord for Wednesday.

On Monday, August 11, I worked in the yard and worked on the John Good and Friends album, "Honky Tonk Joy", getting it ready to upload. And then I got an email from my friend about moving the piano out of storage. Another friend is donating some speakers to Blues Fest and, I believe I'm getting their Wurlitzer organ for my studio. The speakers and the organ were used by Mark Sallings and The Famous Unknowns.

Yesterday was unique. After working in the yard and getting a shower I picked up groceries. Then in the afternoon I dissassembled a piano. Mostly screws and a few bolts. I have to move it out of storage, it's too heavy for me to deal with, and I can't afford piano movers so I'm taking it apart to carry it out in pieces. It's the yellow elephant from Blues Alley and it will enjoy a show biz demise.
extensive swearing
edit: figured out what was going on!

My brother in Christ, Discord is blocked at my job because it’s a GAMING CHAT SERVICE and a KNOWN MALWARE VECTOR.
Put up a freakin’ mailing list (with archives!) or web bulletin board or *something* less ephemeral.

Now listening to Larian and screwlisp on last weeks Lispy Gopher Show. I'm fixing to work in the yard. Then I will continue with my day off which means do what I want at home. Hoping to work on new releases and I'm actually ready to upload some.

"Hey you! Yes you! Do you need cool emotes? Still or animated? For your Discord server or as a reward for channel members on YouTube? What about your Twitch stream? I'm sure you find a way to use some great emotes. What about a bust illustration? Or a head shot, no that's not a threat a picture of your head illustrated! My friend Adventure has you covered! But the offer is limited! So think quickly before I close my coat."

I'm backing up my 2021 livestream videos to clear some disk space in my Videos directory. There's some good stuff in the livestreams and I'm going to start posting it on Gamer+.
Worked in the yard and replaced the bolts that vibrated off the mower. I added lock nuts.
I'm going to work on the NJHB show today and I have a 5e game tonight.

I'm exhausted. When I get caught up on my journal you will understand why. Still ... good times. Today I started audio post production on the NJHB show. I'm going to help at the food pantry and swim. Bring my piano home. Rest. Rehearse United Gospel Trio for our special music Sunday.
I should make my own #discord with BlackJack and Hookers...
