i finished designing my blog. im excited to return to the web, carrying the intention of putting less emphasis on social media. getting this set up was a big step in that process. one more day of work on my instrument then that too will be finished. then a break to re-establish my routines of exercise & self/household care. then practice. thennnnnn a return to the online realm, probably coinciding with my return to raving on nov 8th (homie is opening & im so so excited). i dont wanna come back w an empty music page tho! so i def wanna get some good practice on the instrument in, and perhaps record a couple of sets even.

lately ive been walking. not casually, either. like full on marathon walking lol. 30 miles a week tho these last couple ive been so tunnel-visioned while racing to complete my instrument that ive fallen out of routine. but when in routine i walk at leaast 10 miles, 3 days a week. days when i dont walk i do chores or errands. my off days also begin with at least an hour of rythm practice! just beginner rudiments for now. as simple as the exercises are, i find they help orient my thinking. even if im not using what i practice directly in my work, the act of counting, exercising ambidexterity, and sense of progression has very naturally led to more satisfying creations in my own rythmic work. im very exciting to get back to my routines, unburdened by the compulsion to get this instrument into a playable state. kind of feels like making my own shoes from scratch, just to now be walking up to the starting line. nothing has actually begun tho i finally have shoes on my feet, i guess.
