If I could write a song…

Last night at our good friend’s house we had a Slovenian feast – it was amazing food, drinks (that stuff will grow hair on your chest – I feel like Tarzan), company and time.  We spoke a little about Buenos AIres and how we miss some of our experiences from Buenos Aires.  We miss the tango.  The lessons, the culture, tango on the streets.  Will have to surprise Louisa with signing up to intro classes.  Yes, intro, because we must’ve forgotten everything.  Hopefully, not everything, will see.

I’ve been playing (stronger word than I care to use) guitar on/off for over 3 decades, but if one hears me playing, they would think that I just bought a guitar and I’m trying it for the first time.  Someone famous said that ‘the true work of art is but a a shadow of  the divine perfection’.  Well, despite some of the efforts of my friend Micah from Carry-a-Tune music, I’m still just a shadow.  But I want to write a song or seven in my lifetime.  If I could write just one song for Louisa, this will be it:

I will get better at music even if it kills me.

On an unrelated note, the Oscars would be much more interesting if they’d televise this too.

PS  I wouldn’t know if they do or don’t, I don’t watch Oscars.
