Organ Practice


I love being a drafter, but sometimes I can't handle working in an office. With weird coworkers and me being socially retarded (really I am such a social moron) I just want to shave my head and go swimming. Luckily I had a good organ practice after work in a quiet chapel, that is always soothing. I love playing the organ, it puts me in a good mood. I guess hymns in general put me in a good mood.

I found this flyer while searching through Craig Thompsons blog earlier today. I love it for a lot of reasons. 1) the colors 2) the rain bouncing off the talk bubble 3) the fantastic font and swirlies around the border. I love when cool people take the time to make stuff look good and unique. I'm grateful for friends and family that are creative and understand this.

The Organ


This is my organ teacher.
This is his throne.
His name is Ken.
He is my master.
He is one of my most favorite humans.

I had to go into Kohlers and tell him I couldn't make our lesson tomorrow. Work is so busy that I should put in a full day tomorrow to get my drawings done. I also haven't been able to practice very much lately. I hate not being able to practice, it's usually one of the best parts of the day. I love sitting alone in the chapel playing hymns, and singing along.

I am excited to be the organ player one day.

Funner

I learned that "funner" is actually in the dictionary now. I am going to have to get used to this.

I am learning how to play the organ and I love it. What an interesting enormous instrument. All the buttons to push that control stops and lengths of pipes... there is so much to learn. I love learning something new and different. I hope to always be learning and taking classes and lessons. Today I took home my microstation text book from work to look up stuff that I don't quite understand. I enjoy having a job that is so different day to day, and requires me to think and adapt.

I just wish I had "funner" coworkers.

Good news, by the way, I have a second monitor at work now, and it is fantastic. And my cubicle buddy seems funner and funner each day. I like that Jason kid, maybe I will invite him on a drink run some day.
