Guitar

by: Sassy1

Yesterday, I somehow found myself in a bidding war for a guitar.

At a charity auction.

Which was a bit unexpected.

Also unexpected was the way that despite saying to the friend sitting to my left that I would bid if I could get it for $100, I actually didn't START bidding until it was over $280.

When it got to $400, I thought to myself, STOP.

YOU DON'T EVEN PLAY!!!

And yet my arm, seemingly of its own volition, kept shooting into the air.

 

Damn Arm.

 

You are now looking at the proud owner of a guitar.

Which I can't play.

 

Yet.

 

I'm thinking that if I give up all the men in my life, then I'll have plenty of time to learn though, and at least at the end of it, I'll have something to show for my time and effort!

I may yet take you up on the offer of lessons and help, I'm thinking that its going to take me a long time to get even remotely OK at it. Its a classical guitar, Valencia? Something like that. I'm sure I paid far far far too much for it.
    But hey, it went to charity, so thats a good thing right?

    Mrs. Macca, the only accessory that I want to buy is a pick or 10, (cos I lose little things like that) and maybe a strap. The strap would only be a much much later purchase though. I certainly don't want to be amplifying my current efforts!!!

    Hope all is well with both of you, and the little baby bump too,

    Love, Sass.
