So I led worship last night at small group for the first time ever. It was a lot of fun and a little scary. Definitely played like crap, but no one seemed to mind much. (gotta love that about the small group environment when it comes to trying new things)
The most interesting thing came from me neglecting to bring a pick. I was just using my thumb and middle finger pressed together and strumming across my fingernails like that when I noticed that was really starting to hurt at one point on the top of my middle finger.
As it turns out, I dragged my finger from my first knuckle down at one point instead of hitting the strings with my fingernail….and now I’m missing the skin from there and the blood needs to be cleaned off of my guitar and strings.
I didn’t realize what was up completely until I finished. Luckily I don’t think anyone else did either, so it wasn’t that big of a deal.
Just makes me wish I wasn’t doing some installation of some motors myself today cuz it stings like a bitch when I get grease or dirt on it.
