I’ve been playing bass for about two years now. And I swear, just within the past few weeks, I’ve suddenly got calluses on all my fingertips.

n. frustration that you’re not enjoying an experience as much as you should, even something you’ve worked for years to attain—which prompts you to plug in various thought combinations to try for anything more than static emotional blankness, as if your heart had been accidentally demagnetized by a surge of high expectations.
