(I was very happy then :)

I do that alot. :) Just messing around and I'll think I come up with something cool. Then later I'll find out it's already a song. It sucks though when I tell someone I came up with a cool idea and they know the song. Ehhh I hate that. I actually learned Iron Man from Black Sabbath by just messing around and many other songs.
