Tonight was the jam session. Good thing the piano got tuned last Saturday. We actually fit seven people around my dining room table and it wasn't too uncomfortable. I'm amazed. Rusty was well-behaved, except for a couple small tantrums about being ignored.
In case you were wondering, we do this holiday gathering every year and play music together. We always have a lot of fun, even those who choose not to play an instrument and just listen. The more people there are, the crazier it gets. I play the oboe, my dad plays the french horn, and tonight there were a piano and a flute. That's the core group. Other players come and go like cool night breezes in the middle of July. It's a good thing we didn't have any more people tonight, though. I have space in my living room, but the group we had tonight was a perfect fit. If I hadn't had this tonight, I could have gone to a couple holiday open-houses with my boss, Cheryl. I really wanted to go and represent the company today! I'm not particularly good at networking, but I'm game for free food and/or food that I don't have to cook.
I want someone to explain to me why Dwight Yoakam always wears a hat that's so big it covers the entire top half of his face. And what is that thing he does with his leg? If anyone can explain it, please do.
Now I'm going to go play out of the new piano book I got yesterday at my piano lesson. Then I'll be going to bed so I can get up early and get to work tomorrow morning. ~Ciao!
