Spent about an hour in the simple pleasure of noodling about with piano. In this case; not live piano, but a Decent Sampler plugin and Ableton Live. I forget to let myself like things like this: I'm not composing, it's not deliberate practice, I'm using a simple tool (the Lite version of Live) -- it's just play. But play is good.
I also did a bunch of reading, some YouTube watching and some oil painting. If I'd have cycled too it would have been almost the perfect day of self-indulgence. Every _single_ time I have a day like this I think "I should do this more often" but the fact I'm writing about it shows: I haven't successfully built the habit.
