The Drum

Hi Honey!  Sorry I'm running a little late today, I got carried away working on my drum.  I hope you are doing OK, and keeping calm.  People are behaving rather frenzied with all this political activity lately, I anticipate you must be trying to hide.  Don't be afraid of people, Honey.  Put your fear in God.  God is the only One Who can adequately protect us and grant us happiness.  I have to admit that I'm a little agitated and irritated with people's behavior, but eventually my experience will get a hold of me again and I will calm down.  That's one good thing about growing older, is experience.  I've been a musician for 39 years already.  Yikes!

Isn't that your Mom's age, Natty Honey?  Almost, I bet.  So what's for dinner today?  What are you having?  Guess what I had for lunch today... a salad!  Yes, I stopped to buy some greens, picked up some spinach, and got more for my money than I expected.  I was going to put it in my ramen, but I had so much that I decided to make a salad instead.  A spinach salad with eggs and onions, using Heinz's Salad Cream.  I don't usually eat salads, but I can make a good salad because I used to make them all the time at the pizza joint.  Dressings, and all.  Want some?

Oh I finally finished my drum!  I have it  tuned up and all.  Yes, those are cable ties you see.  I'm so happy with it!  It's so loud... it sounds like thunder, the entire spectrum of thunder.  I need someone to play it for me, so I can go outside and hear what it sounds like from far away.
