The Washer

Yes. The Washer.

My parent did a great thing and gave us our first set of washer and drier for the apartment. We were thrilled. We finally didn't have to go to one of our parents houses to wash our clothes. It was a very exciting day. I felt like a man because I hooked up the driers power cable. It was a little more in-depth than I would have thought. You have to put wires on terminals and whatnot. But it works and I can't be more proud. The washer on the other hand just need hoses to be attached. I did that no problem, but there was a problem. After running the washer for the first time, we noticed a strong smell. Something like burnt rubber was filling the air. Not a good sign for a brand new large appliance. So we took the washer back to the store with the aid of my father and his truck. I hooked the new, new washer up (a little less pride and achievement this go-around) and the same results happened. After some consideration. Jen and I decided to exchange the washer for a different one. My father and I did so today. We came back, the washer was installed and the problem for now is fixed. If there is any malfunction with this washer then we will consult the warranty.

My Wife blog has inspired me to do a little post of my own. I just acquired "The Guitar Cookbook" by Jesse Gress. By the way, Jesse if you are reading, Please don't sue my or anything. I promise I'll Share any revenue that the Google Ads are generating if I break a million dollar with the mention of you book. So far the Google Ads have brought in a whopping $0.00 to our household. So, Here is what I plan to do. I am first going to read "The Guitar Cookbook" Cover to cover, and then I will go to town implementing my learned knowledge in practical form, informing all the way. Today I read the first chapter. The first chapter really explains the basis of music and how it relates to the guitar. I have been playing for the past 11 years. I've played in many different scenarios and have learned a great deal the hard way. I really didn't learn anything new in this chapter, but it's always good to reinforce the basics. The better foundation you have the stronger your skills you build upon that foundation can become. So here is to much more learning and progression in the way of my musical ability with the guitar.
