So I changed my Mind a little

          TUESDAY 9/7/21 2:15PM--a little while ago I suddenly got smart...I decided NOT to go the Main Stage Grille open mic tonight...I have a Doctor's appappointment at 9AM--so that's that...I've decided to be sensible for a change...I DO NOT regret changing my plans...The Thursday trip to Bippy's Pub in Ellicott City has been changed to a trip to Hershey's...Not sure why, but Bippy's has been cancelled...
5:25PM--very nervous about going to JVs tomorrow...SueEl suggests going as a guitarist, because I have been playing guitar way WAY longer than I've been playing Bass...so I'll wrestle with that question from now until sometime tomorrow--probably a few minutes before I leave...
WEDNESDAY 9/8/21 4PM--I'm gonna take a chance and just bring my Bass, and hope the Universe is kind to me for awhile...I think the open mic starts at 7:30...sign-ups probably begin at 7...that's when I hope to be there by...I plan to leave Home at 6PM...I'm also hoping the Universe will provide me with "smooth sailing" to JVs...I'm not as worried about the trip home--yet...
7:39PM-starting to wonder if I made a mistake…the first guy I struck up a conversation with seems  to be a bit of a jerk…I suppose I could be wrong…not having fun yet… it’s too soon to know if I will have fun but I intend to hang in until the end no matter what…glad tomorrow is Hershey’s
9:08PM-it went better than I thought it would, so I’m satisfied… Who knows, I might be back…my offstage harmonies have been really good so far..my partner in conversation messed up the middle 8 of ONE WAY OR ANOTHER…I’m glad I played before he did…kinda sounds like HE’S getting a little cocky…don’t really expect to but I wouldn’t mind playing some more…the band onstage is struggling with CLOSER TO HOME…
THURSDAY 9/9/21 12:38AM--If/when I go back to JV's, MAYBE I'll bring my guitar, amp and three stomp boxes...other than Bob, I just might end up being the best guitarist in the place...I fully admit it's an ego thing on my part...on the other hand, I'll be able to sing a song or two or three...I haven't yet got the hang of singing and playing Bass simultaneously yet...I played Bass behind the hosts Martha and Bob...we did three songs-    WHILE MY GUITAR GENTLY WEEPS, THE LAST TIME, and CAN'T FIND MY WAY HOME...as for what three songs I'M gonna sing when/if I get the chance, I have no idea...Bob and Martha are organizers, like CJ and Max...Hershey's seems to me to be looser...I THINK I like the organized open mic/jam a little better... 
10:08AM--looking forward to Hershey's, although I see no need to get there before the jam starts, like I usually do...assuming that Jeff will already be there, I guess I'll arrive closer to 6:30...I THINK Sue El wants to go, but I don't know that for a fact...
