Long practice after dinner.  Thought I'd do Clayton Cameron exercises but then wanted to try Benniest Grooves 1 on kawatsura.

Got a gig to play with Minyo Station this month.  That felt nice too.

Planned to intersperce shamisen and video editing but gave myself a blister pretty quickly.  I couldn't help but use that as an excuse to do easier things (like more video editing, email, kawatsura, etc).
