How We Rawk

The fingers on my left hand are mildly numb and mildly burning and so if I make some carelesslkhskjd mistakes, you will forgive me. Steel strings on acoustic guitars are death to newbie fingers like mine. I actually think I might have killed some nerves: it feels like the tips are asleep all the time. 

Still, I know enough chords to play a Marshall Tucker Band song and the intro to "Wish You Were Here" and also that song from Grease that starts by singing the chords; I think Sha-Na-Na made it famous. And when I say "play," I mean pluck strum start over look at strings look at fingers start over hum and mumble and try again. 

"Play" is a very subjective word.

Rory has the worst sounding guitar ever so everything she plays sounds like a "Horse With No Name" yet she still looks cooler than me when she strums and hums. She kicked the ball outside with her sister after dinner and while she was waiting for a pass back, she air guitared while chanting "G! G! G Major!" 

I have no words for my satisfaction in that.

I'm not sure which one of us wants to rock more.
