time to get on with it?



                MONDAY 1/7/19 2:50PM--I think I'm gonna look thru the cover songs notebook and pick out songs to put on the tablet...Apparently the only way *I* am gonna accomplish that is thru the cut and paste method...I'm not sure about that, but I wouldn't be surprised if that was my only choice...we'll see...I still have three or four songs under the heading of MY FAVORITES when I open Amazon's Silk browser...I suspect at some point I will run out of space to save those favorites, but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it...
6:05PM--I decided to get the lyrics for a song I didn't really want to see how/if I could delete them...all I have to do is UN-bookmark them and they're gone...BTW, apparently all I have to do is search for the lyrics and I get 'em...The MY FAVORITES list shows which search engine (?) I got the lyrics from...I've gotten four sets of song lyrics from Google, one from Bing--and THEY got 'em from something called "LyricFind"...I got the most obscure song (so far) from Genius...Dunno how long this will last, but I'm really happy...
7:10PM--there might not be a user friendly site for chords...of course, I still trust my ears...
7:54PM--now that I CAN build a collection of lyrics on the tablet, I dunno what songs I wanna collect--that's typical, ain't it? Hopefully, I'll be able to sing songs that I don't quite know like the back of my hand...COME TOGETHER for instance...
TUESDAY 1/8/19 9:14AM--should start thinking about what songs I'm gonna play if I go to the OTWC on Thursday...I don't wanna take the tablet anywhere until I have the case--maybe another week...and I think I should get a mic stand holder of my own as well...so IF I go out on Thursday, it will be with protected sheets of paper...
10:52AM--going thru the cover song book to decide what songs to put on the tablet kinda feels like a Government Project...It doesn't have to be done today, or even this week, but I should get on with it, in my opinion...
1:06PM--I dunno HOW a band as bad as the Combustibles gets gigs, but we have some...In 2019, so far we have five...I get depressed just thinking about it...
5:24PM--need to start thinking about Thursday, even though I dunno for sure if I'll be able to go...I might not even ASK until Thursday...
7:41PM--gonna take the coversongbook upstairs when I watch STAR TREK...might put some more song lyrics into the tablet...
9:03PM--so now I've got about 25 sets of lyrics...all of them are fairly easy to get to (kinda) quickly...I DID have to cut and paste one or two of 'em...no big deal...and it took a bit less than an hour to get it done...I didn't load ALL the songs...that was never the Plan anyway...I feel like I'm leaving some obvious choices out, though...
9:27PM--I suppose I COULD bring the tablet with me to the OTWC on Thursday, but that seems risky...
