Drumming update :: From Spotty PJ world

24 Replies

I'm worried, no not about drumming I'll come to that. The spotty bottoms have disappeared. They entered the laundry system some time ago and I have yet to find them..... search continues. In the meantime jogger bottoms are under studying.

Oh quick random! want to know your band name?? take the colour of your pants (underwear for our US friends) and the last thing you ate.... mine from a couple of days ago 'black falafel' !!!! wonder if the Chilli Peppers used this method!!

OK so the drumming.... well its going great! 2 lessons in and I can feel I am going to get somewhere despite a dodgy foot. The right wrist cracks like hell now but thats is 'loosening up' I reckon! My co-ordination remains excellent and I have discovered the joy of beating something with a stick to make a racket!! Better late than never. More importantly I feel good, I am learning something new, and not doing too bad at it. Good for the spirit and the soul. I am on my target to play at a party on the 28th April...... watch this space :-)

so are you saying the color of your pants are hay, and you eat wood? Heywood sounds like a perfect name for a man with sticks.

in reply to moonswife

hahahaha nope! It was 'black falafel' although today would be Pink Pancakes!!!!!

I guess the missing PJs are in the same place as several of my odd socks!

The Washing Machine pixie has got them.

OK you've brightened my AM, and I needed it. 3 items, let's see if I can hang onto all 3 til this is finished! Aah, drumming!! I am a drummer, hand drumming not drum set variety. I have a Djemde, a Yashika several Shakares , bells, whistles, rain sticks and assorted other percussion instruments. Now all I need is enough energy to get back to banging on those skins. Anyone want to come to Santa Fe and make a joyful noise?

PJ's: mine have, fanfare please, glow in the dark stars! If there was a love interest in my life I am easy to find even in a blackout. That's 2,

oh, performance name hmmm, how's Flat Oranges?

The need for brightening: had minor surgery in my mouth yesterday. This AM scared myself when I looked in a mirror: swollen, purple, cannot open my mouth, swallow, but no worry ...MD says "Ice it ,do not lie flat, he'll check with me tomorrow". That is unless anything gets worse!!! I'm going now, to try to swallow a protein drink. A votre sante!
