follow up on the guitar thing

What is it about a guitar that makes me want the relationship between me and a guitar to be one that is something special and meaningful? I think of the idea of a custom made guitar. It is made specially for me by someone you meet and establish a repiore. It's like a romantisism. If the guitar has a deep meaning to me maybe it will inspire me to play the saddest songs and delightfulest of melodies. A guitar company I've recently found interest in has a four day vacation thing where you pay (a shit load) and get to go to the shop and sit down with a luthier and pick out exactly what you want and they make it custom for you, and on the last day they have a open mic night. This is appealing to me, but maybe I don't have to go to such lengths. Enter the notion of a gift. Instant meaning and importance, although a lot to ask. To much money to spend, that would be like buying an engagment ring but for the dude. So trash the notion. Also I made mac and cheese for lunch then realized there is no milk so the only substitute was sour cream, bad idea.

Did you use the word "delightfulest"? I bet that sour cream mac-n-cheese wasn't the delightfulest meal you've ever eaten.
