Sorry things seem so glum... No blues here. I'm actually having quite an enjoyable two-week Christmas break : a great combination of activity and relaxation. The first few days off were very stressful, but things calmed down after that. The last of the visiting relatives left this morning, but even that was not so stressful this year. I've had time to relax, do some fun cooking, get lots of exercise, take a cheap "spa day," take care of some important personal business, spend time with my husband and son as well as the visiting relatives, see my son perform (singing and playing piano) in various holiday programs (I sang in one, too), etc. Good stuff! We've had warm weather for the most part, and now we have a chilly rain, so we're hunkering down for the evening with some hot beverages and relaxing. I could get used to this!! Alas, on Monday, it's back to my regular life when school starts back up again! No blues, no complaints here. Just not a lot of ELO-related/inspired things to discuss lately...

I got the FOON picture disc for Christmas so I’ve been playing this regularly, growing to really like the album.

Even though I’d imagined my winter break would be a giant girls night out/guitar jam sessions with my sister...I was stuck doing homework for the upcoming classes. Oh well, on a bright note: We got to open our FOON vinyl for Christmas! I’ve never had colored vinyl before, and it’s really nice to play the album off vinyl now as opposed to YouTube where it’s full of ads. We also rewatched all of the Star Wars movies over break (those brought back some wonderful childhood memories ) leading up to see Rise of Skywalker. And we did go up to one of the local record stores and scored some nice finds, including some ELO singles and a Roy Orbison one that I’ve been trying to hunt down for months.

Did you have a certain guitar in mind for your jamming?

Congratulations on your coloured vinyl experience! I've said it before and I'll say it always - coloured vinyl sounds better than the plain. Any black vinyl is better than CD but coloured is the ultimate experience. I'm sure it's science!
