Random Thought - Random Note - Random Question

So, I’m suppose to be going to IG’s CAGED series… But I found right now, that I’m not really in the mood to follow something specific… I’m just in the mood, for now, to bang around on my guitar and make “noise” — Though, I do want that noise to sound good, I’m not really following any sort of specific chord progression or material.
What I’m trying to say is sometimes I just want to bang around on my guitar… Is that a bad thing? Does that hurt my learning to just not follow any specific material and to just play random chord with random strum patterns… Oh, all of this is done without a metronome…
What do you think? Any guitar teachers out there? I’d love an opinion from you…

I do get it. Really.
From The Woodshed is considering dropping his guitar stuff, which is bad and sad, but I think he’s spending a lot of time trying to get a few things going (impressive things, to be sure; you don’t see me picking up Charlie Parker) and not playing with others, not just bashing out cool stuff, and without something to say “OK, this is fun!”, it can get too much.
And, in fact, some of that is good. I picked up “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen” by just hacking at the open-position G scale, trying to figure out what’s there.
