Music

That's two nights in a row I've dreamed of playing the guitar. I haven't picked up a guitar in, I dunno, must be 10 years now? I do kinda miss it, but I'd never be able to, now. I wasn't all that good at it, anyway, and I can't sing, so it was only ever for my own amusement. There were only a few songs I could really play. But I do miss music. (I kinda miss the piano, too, but a)we don't have one; and b)I wouldn't be able to do that now, either. Or play the flute. I might be able to manage the sax, but I think even that would be pushing it. Not that I was every terribly good at either of those.)

When I was taking lessons, I got to the point where I could play without a problem, even with the wide neck - but that was before the RSI set in in both hands. I don't think it's actually carpal tunnel, but it could develop into that if I'm not careful. Just about everything makes my wrists and hands hurt nowadays. I'm managing it - more or less - but it does mean I have to make some hard choices and restrict my activities. It would be the squeezing required to hold the strings down that would be the problem.
