So the other day I was called skinny. Not like, "Wow, your skinny." More like, "Hey, you're too skinny. Stop starving yourself."

I was surprised by how insulted I was from that. I'd rather be called chubby, or normal. I feel like I may be "skinny" to some people (my family, who are the instigators here), but I'm not skinny. I'm normal sized. I have muscle, I have a bit of left over 'bad-shape-fat' in my belly, which is slowly burning away. But, I'm far from 'you-need-medical-help' skinny.

Anyways, on to more real-deal things.

I'm learning how to play touchstyle on my new guitar, which is exceedingly difficult as it is acoustic. And it's hard to get the sound of touching a fret to resonate without the other side of the string resonating at the same time, which just makes it sound nasty. I'd have to mute the string at the head of the guitar to get the single sound, but it makes it hard to tap, touch, strum, and slap the strings at the same time. Which is what i want to be able to do. I mean, it's good practice, but an electric guitar would be much better suited for the sound/style I like to make/play.
