Setting up at the computer to practice tonight I couldn't find my 1/8 to 1/4 adapter for headphones. Never misplaced it until getting an mp3 player for a gift. Spent half an hour trying to locate it and gave up. Oh well, I've been wanting a new set of headphones anyway and the pair I've spec'd out has an adapter included.

Besides that I've spent more time on talkbass than practicing...

Ditto here. Luckily this is just taking my attention away from work at the moment.

Been shooting back and forth between sports and the gym and school. Oddly enough, the lack of practice has seemed to help my technique.

Having to finish two assignments and get them handed in seemed to kill any spare time I had.

I purchased two PC games... The witcher, and Call of duty 4.... both very intense computer games. I may have practiced a total of 30 minutes this week.

Went to 3 rehersals this week. (2 bands) I find rehersals can actually cut into practice time.

I left my bass back home.

I didn't have space in my car for all my gear, not to mention the HSC arrived the day after I left, damn UPS!

But it's not all bad, the guy across the hall has a Fender P he barely plays, and I'm welcome to it anytime, I just miss my bass and all my pedals.
