Isolated Blurts - The HT Cafe Way

[Quoll]

It's not all about size you know.

Eilan I know youse guys will appreciate this--

We ended up buying a used piano because it was bigger than (and the same price as) the new one I liked. My husband told the salesman I was a size queen, but he either didn't get it or chose to ignore it.

It'll be delivered on Friday. Weather permitting, I suppose. I'll post pics

Apparently it is, please carry on.

Something to torment the 20something with

Yes, I'm getting a piano (6'1" grand). It's mostly for me, but my two oldest daughters will be learning to play as well.

* Next time you say (whine) "I miss you, I didn't know what was happening," remember I did share things and you have been silent -- so eat the bun! Leave the ego at the door, thankyouverymuch.

* Idiots - what purpose do the serve?

* It is flipping cold!

eilan: i wasn't aware you played. what degree of proficiency do you possess?

I started taking lessons just before I turned seven, and continued with them for the next seven years, until I got more interested in extracurricular activities at school.

I was, at one time, really, really good, though not to the point when I could have had a career as a concert pianist or anything like that. Unfortunately, I couldn't take my piano with me when my ex and I married in 1994, so I haven't played regularly since then and my fingers don't always want to cooperate. I'm hoping that regaining my piano proficiency is like riding a bike.

Two more days!

As out of practice as I am, I might have to start off with the two-fingered typist approach and work my way up to that!

 

[silverwhisper]

so long as you can find middle c again, i'm sure you'll be fine, eilan. :>
