Dreams coming true.

I went to Billy Hyde's today. With the disability bonus that was handed out last year that I was paid (late, due to the fact that I was trying to tell them that I was so sick that I needed to be on Disability) I bought a new keyboard. No, not the computer type.

I have wanted a new one for years now. Years and YEARS. And now, now I have a new one. It's huge, it's functional, it's not top of the line Korg (it's a Casio, unfortunately) but it works, it sounds good. And it was 400 bucks. A FUCKING BARGAIN!

I am so jazzed. It actually inspires me to play on this thing. I can hear new songs forming as I play on it already! The key sounds are fucking fab, too. I'll actually be able to play some proper rock'n'roll with this thing!

It was half the price I was expecting and I am SO HAPPY. So very happy! I can afford the damned new intuos3 tablet I wanted as well! I can actually upgrade the standard of my digital art!

THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY I COULD SHIT!!!

God, I feel like happy-crying. I really do!

That is great news.

There are some hilariously 90s dance sounds on it, oh man, it's sweet. Why does the technology for these sounds trickle down so slowly? LOL!

I think you should shit. Sometimes when I'm in a good mood I take the most pleasure from a nice, relaxing dump.

Actually, that should be the title of a song! Nice, relaxing dump. Or NRD. Ha! It sounds like nerd!

Sorry, I'm typing as I think. But doesn't feel great when Cuntylink have to pay for their mistakes? I got back paid so much at the start of my pension that I went on holiday to Melbourne! :D

It's very, very sweet. I'm like, "HAH! HAHA!"

Nothing wrong with Casio! The Casios I've played with all sound great. The Korg Arranger keyboards are a bit overpriced if you ask me (and I'm a hardcore Korg fan, too!)

Awesomeness!!

I remember happily playing on my sister's mini white casio keyboard. The one that features in the Strongbad cartoons! The one that helped the song "Da Da Da!" along. :D

Hey Nancy! Congrats on getting some of the equipment you have been craving for soooooo long!!! Also, congrats for sticking it up centrelink by holding out long enough (and righteously so!) so they had to realise their fuck up and give you what you deserved all along!
