Heck yeah!
They've played that as part of the setlist the last couple of tours. For the Art of Doubt tour she was doing it in kind of a robot/choppy voice which was really cool. Metric will also be going back on tour this summer with Garbage. Should be amazing \:D/

No routine more that I placed the guitar next to my computerdesk so when I'm waiting on something or listening to something I just have to reach it and start playing.

"I just have to reach it and start playing."

That's awesome.
My piano is sort of in-line with the back of my desk, so I have to move :'( :( :'(
There's not really any good way to get it closer than that besides just putting it to my left and blocking my book shelves, so I might just need to work on not being so ridiculous about it ;D

You should both just take 10 minutes to yourselves a day to work on your instrument. Early morning, late night, etc. We scroll for 10 minutes a day. If you made it a priority, you would feel better and play better!

Yesssss!!
Activation energy exceeded! \:D/
I'm caffeinated, I was just reading a compilation of Nietzsche's "Will to Power" aphorisms, and then this thread of Repel and NightBloom comments as inspiration.. time to act!!! :D

I pulled my piano classics sheet-music from the shelves, got my headphone adapter, and am going to re-learn this song (first classical song I learned all the way through):
Chopin's Nocturne in E Flat, Op. 9, No. 2 (played by Yundi Li)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJuTtOFRDyg

• 10min in: I had to make a key on a Post-It to track which notes were sharp and flat, lulz. Completely forgot how to read the in-margin key and forgot about bass and sharp clef-notes having different meanings in sheet music. So rusty.
I'll also use these tutorials to help me when my music-reading is too slow, though I do want to make sure I'm making an honest effort at reading the sheet music first:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p29JUpsOSTE
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sleZ-hzrtRY
• 20 min: just realized my damper pedal was plugged into the wrong spot — it's been like that for months D:
Also made a cheat sheet on a Post-It for the note names (faster reading); just this but on paper:
http://i.pinimg.com/originals/39/e9/3b/39e93bf3ed64a757c023550b2077ba90.gif

• One hour. Stopping. Learned the first measure..

I realize that that was more than 10 minutes, but now that everything's set up it should be easier to just sit and play tomorrow. I used to be in the habit of playing while my hair dried, so maybe that'll be the trick..
Art time! :D
