i have no idea what happened or how it happened, but i can finally play bar chords!!!!!

i am so fucking excited. i know it's nothing special but this is a big deal for me because my fingers are short and that shit is painful, but i can actually sound the chords!! and i can switch to them with relative ease, too!

i'm going to be an absolute fucking menace now that half of the songs i want to play are actually playable for me, ha. hahahahahaha. AHAHAHAHAHA.

#and by menace i mean shyly play when nobody else is home because i'll be dead before i sing in front of anybody #with a few notable exceptions (e.g. my drinking buddy. he's already heard me croak like a dying frog so.)#'i have no idea how this happened' bub.. it's probably practice and your fingers getting strong enough to hold that shit down lol #well. i.. didn't practice these chords. ah well. thanks hands. you did me a good turn.#nooo but like. fucking *yay*. i'd given up on bar chords. at least on my behemoth of a guitar that is Sal.#he's almost uncomfortable to hold but that's my baby and i still haven't re-strung him after 10 years... disgraceful #but to be fair those strings have some silly sentimental value. okay. okay. yeah idk i'm going to be weird about this #whenever there was any kind of an F or a B or even a Gm in the chords i would just... hug my ukulele a little tighter and put Sal away #NOW I NO LONGER HAVE TO #i love my ukulele but Sal just sounds nicer. also provides a more comfortable vocal range? that makes no sense #i am only saying this after like. 3 days of being able to play them for some reason. found out just because i was too lazy to switch #when i saw there was an F in the song so i said fuck it we die.#bug.txt
