Player piano
Sep. 9th, 2004 03:08 pmSo I'm waiting for Brendan's bus to show up - he's almost 20 minutes late home. I wandered out to the library/music room to peer out the front window, leaving the babies playing in the living room. I decided to go ahead and play something on the player piano. It's been a while, I haven't been using it much. I ought to play on it more. I really enjoyed it.
Of course, by the time I was done, I remembered quite clearly why I haven't been using it much - Maggie was howling her dismay at having been left in the living room while I was on the piano.
Still, I want to find time to play more, and ideally to get back to practicing on the harp, too. I need to find more player piano rolls I like, I don't have a very big collection. I used to get a few on Ebay, but I wasn't happy with the condition I was getting them in. I can buy them new, but if I buy a bunch at once I get a discount, so although I could afford a couple I keep putting it off, thinking about the discount price.
Brendan's bus has still not showed up. Oh wait, aha, there he is.
