Got my guitar back from the guitar shop on Friday and finally sat down today to play it. All was fine and good for about fifteen minutes and it died again. Apparently last time it was "a loose wire on the pickup" and it's doing exactly the same thing this time so I assume it's the same thing. Loose wire sounds like something I could fix but none of the wires look loose to me. Not happy at all at the moment. Grrr.

I think it's time I upgraded my computer. Not because I think it really needs it, but I had a look at memory prices today and wow! 128 Meg for $65. It cost me $260 for 64 when I bought my computer (at the height of the Taiwan memory crisis). CPU's look pretty cheap too. hmmmm
