Just got the confirmation email re: the guitar thing... I thought I had two weeks still, but the first get-together is NEXT TUESDAY.

My fingers are so not ready. And I was thinking I'd change guitar strings because I'd have a couple of weeks for them to stretch, but guess I'll just go with the old ones.

*deep breath*

WHY is it always like that. *whine* *sigh* LOL I think it'll be fine, too. I emailed him a question asking if age is a factor, telling him I was far closer to "I could be your mother" than "member of the youth group" and he replied with a laugh and an "age is absolutely no restriction". That made me feel a little less nervous, as did playing some more yesterday afternoon. My left hand is clumsy but getting there.

You're absolutely right... the rust *is* quickly wearing off. I managed to get through Fur Elise, which simplified version is one of my warm-up songs, without too many glitches, which was a good sign. Left hand is still clumsy but already better.

That's what I'm hoping... that the first few minutes will be the only uncomfortable times and the rest will just be enjoying the music and making some new friends.

WO HO! You are in. Your fingers are ready, and you are going to have a blast!

Well, no... the fingers *aren't* ready, but they'll be in better shape by Tuesday, hopefully. :)
