No movie again tonight. I'm distracted because I'm wondering what happened to Elizabeth. Elizabeth, if you are reading this I hope everything's okay. Maybe the FB thing is a technical problem of some kind. I sure hope you didn't get hacked. Mainly I just hope you are okay and that nothing terrible has happened. You only just posted the clip from your new song, and the photo of the prairie, just a couple of days ago, so this came out of the blue. 2020 is already a bad year, please Lord don't make it worse.
All I can do for now is trust that all is well. But blogging and watching movies will have to wait.
On a lighter note, my recorder came in the mail. No, not a tape recorder but a recorder, you know - a woodwind - except mine is made of plastic, a beginner's model from Yamaha. I ordered my recorder (order and rec-order) after rediscovering the music of Gentle Giant. In their videos, you can sometimes see two or three of them all playing recorders at once, and they looked like fairly simple instruments to learn. So, I went online at Amazon just to check prices, and I found the Yamaha Soprano model for just 8 bucks! It was listed as "the #1 seller" among recorders. I bought it so I could (attempt to) play along with Gentle Giant. If it turns out I can't, I'll settle for snake charming. Third choice would be payback for the 3am parties of my Noisy Neighbors. I was surprised at how loud the thing is. In truth, I won't be able to practice it in my apartment. I'll have to take it up to Aliso or Santa Su and play it in the middle of nowhere, until I get good. Then everyone will line up for miles around.
Right?
