@MicroMara Can't believe that idiot rejected your offer?  That's insane.  Bring your A game we can rape and pillage together brother.  I spent $3 on a lottery ticket tonight.  $240mil.  We'll ALL be gone!  lol   I'm out.  Ni ni time. 

Yes, my mind has messed up my sleep before, or the emotions of my heart... they can be similar.   Me spending just over $27k on a vehicle is actually stupid to me. Inflation. But no way to go look at it or drive it prior to buying. Will we have gas next year? So it's a dealership I've dealt with before. I can return it if I have to... missed another opportunity just last week? Not this time. Got to have wheels to get me to another zip code!! That kept me up a few nights lately.

With me it's like this ... actually 5 to 6 hours of sleep are enough for me, I go to bed at 10 pm I'm actually between 4 to 5 am fit again, despite a long working day, usually from 7 am to 6 pm. What is bad is when in the phase of waking up I pursue a thought, something that occupies my mind like yesterday's cancellation. In these cases I try to compensate the negative vibrations in positive action. This does not always succeed ..but is generally a positive basis for action for the next day.

Advertising hyperbole 🤪🤪   I just sink in and listen when I can to  Voyage Of The Acolyte and Spectral Mornings    Rest of the Steve Hackett solo work in my collection is  Bay Of Kings  Cured Defector  Highly Strung  Please Don’t Touch Plus 1 with Genesis Revisited and the RSDay Steve Hackett The Tokyo Tapes             

That's the spirit, back at it!! And you are definitely one of us mature guys getting up that early although it happens to me with no rhyme or reason sometimes!

@Full Range Ha, just looked at the sticker.  Gatefold 180g 2LP   The first time ever on vinyl for this 1993 studio album from the legendary guitarist.  Include etching on side 4.  That did it.  Unzipping it now.  I've got an etching for him if he did what I think he did.  Grrrrr.  Yup! Screwed again.  2 lp's in sleeves layin in the gatefold and side four is an ecthing of his guitar.  $44 for that thing.  It darn well better be fantastic.  Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!   15$ a side.  Gimme a break.  I call bullcrap!

it's 4.40 am, it's getting light outside, the birds in the forest give their best, their morning concert, always nice to listen to. Am already awake for 2 hours, could not sleep, I was still angry about yesterday's decision of the landlord. Well, was yesterday, today is another day, I still have to paint a gable wall on the house, it is weathered, have this the last time 8 years ago weatherproof glazed.   As it gets quiet hot today , I thought to start with that work in the very early morning , time for my second coffee mug

I have quite a few solo Steve Hackett LPs but not Guitar Noir 

yes you are right that could also be easily misunderstood, I also just noticed

I hear you, it takes pure talent to do that!
