  • 00:01:07: @tamalady You can't go into another room?? Ukes can be as soft or loud as you like. It's not like someone learning trumpet or something!
  • 10:49:06: @rdominick http://twitpic.com/o8dfb - Oooo, that's so lovely! You know I love LIGHTS! :-)
  • 10:53:35: RT @SantaClaus25 Santa please put me on the nice list (if you think I belong there).
  • 13:03:51: @tamalady For $50 you can get a ukulele just like my white one that sounds good & is a joy 2 play. Comes in lots of other pretty colors too
  • 13:04:57: @tamalady Music & *making* music is therapeutic and not a waste of money.
  • 13:06:57: @tamalady Well a ukulele is hardly as loud as a trumpet. And w/3 chords there are tons of songs to learn easily!
  • 13:31:04: RT @MindfullyChange: Holding on 2 anger is like grasping a hot coal w/intent of throwing it @ someone else; you are the one getting burned.
  • 13:33:12: @rdominick http://twitpic.com/o8czr - Looks dark in your office at that time of morning!
  • 13:43:28: @webcruzr21 Ok, I guess going down 2 laundry room in apt. bldg. in PJ bottoms&T-shirt is not so weird if your DH can ride mower in PJs! LOL!
  • 13:46:41: @thisnthat I tried Uke Thong but still didn't give me secure feeling I wanted. Had strap button installed & use a mandolin strap.
  • 13:47:13: @KenyB Yay for feeling better! :-)
  • 13:54:00: @FLNonficwriter Static on your computer? That sounds kinda scary. :-/
  • 13:56:09: @FLNonficwriter Oh. Nebbermind. :-)
  • 14:03:58: @joostburger I can reply for me: because women uke players are not built like men & have to find other ways to hold uke.
  • 23:15:39: @SnappyTouch That was really weird about negative-feedback-gal. :-/
  • 23:44:24: @SantaClaus25 At the risk of being put on Naughty list, why should people have to explain *why* they should be on the Nice? Don't you know??
  • 23:57:43: RT @ethernautrix: RT @EffingBoring I just flew in from Maine, and boy is my marriage threatened by the gays. //I know:29 yrs down the drain.

Mostly music

I did a little ukulele music video that is really just a chord progression for a beginners contest entry. I doubt I'm gonna win anything, as I am not a serious picker, just a simple strummer. But it's fun to get involved in these contests anyway. :-)

I wrote a song in the middle of the night last night. I got the words down, then sneaked as far into the back as I could with my little handheld tape recorder and sheet of paper with the words on and sang very very softly. I did not want to forget the melody like I had on a previous song!

Cat'r is probably not coming over tonight, as he's kinda tuckered out, so I'll probably do a video of the new song tonight, after it gets dark. It's called "A Wish".

ETA: I made the video--really dark (literally), but here it is.
