Day 17.
I've been struggling with whether or not to get a teacher. On one hand, between my books and Andrew Anderson's excellent videos, I have plenty of resources to get started. On the other, after lurking on the talkbass forums, my concerns with going lonewolf are twofold. Firstly, I might learn bad habits that would have to be corrected down the road. The second is more serious. Apparently bad form, technique, posture, etc. can potentially cause physical harm in the long-term.

Upright Bass Journal #1
Here's my new baby, a Florea Lupeni Pro 1/2. Made of a solid carved Carpathian spruce top and laminated maple back and sides (fully-arched back), this bass includes an ebony fingerboard, nut, saddle, tailpiece and endpin. I've had it all of 9 days now and love it. Enormous thanks to Mom & Dad for the greatest gift ever!!! Without further ado:
