My idol

I wanted to be Pat Benatar when I was a kid. And Olivia Newton-John (but that's another story for another day).

Remember in Fast Times at Ridgemont High when Stacey says all the girls in school look like Pat Benatar? Yeah. Good times.

I rock!

Last night was my second guitar lesson.  I learned four new chords.  G was a breeze.  C is kicking my rump.  I may need finger lengthening surgery to be able to play it (but that's not an unreasonable option).

Before you know it I'll be totally wailing on guitar.  My neighbors will be lulled to sleep every night by the dulcet tones of "Stairway to Heaven" and awakened to "Immigrant Song".  Mid-day will be all about Hank Williams, Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson.  And then I'll go on tour.  And make a billion dollars.  And design a clothing line.  And a line of eco-friendly cleaning products.  And my best friend will be Pat Benatar.  And we'll wear matching headbands.  And...I really need to master that C chord.
