jupe's low morale
I love you! Also feeling a bit blah over here. Sorry they had you wear a beanie… I still don’t get why they didn’t have a kid play your part anyway.

I love you. Luckily I don’t care much about the beanie. I think that they couldn’t find a kid to sing the tune to Piano Man.

That is a rough gig… Luckily you have two of your favorite Holland musicians coming over for tea on Monday afternoon to cheer you up! 🙂

jupe's low morale
True that. You and Jordan are definitely my favorite Holland musicians. But since that’s a low bar, you guys are much more than that plus you’re fun to talk to. I’m looking forward to it. I’m already cheered up a bit. Thank you!

too close?
Oh my — whatta find! This is absolutely brilliant! It’s a real pleasure to read this excellent commentary — you are a treasure, Mr. Jenkins! This is the first time I’ve seen your site, and I reeeeally like your style and your way… I feel as though I’ve spent a thoroughly satisfying and always-eagerly-anticipated visit with a scholarly (and musical, and word-smithy and lovely friend)! Thanks so much…

Speaking of compression socks, if we can get you to were your organ shoes, tutu, long sleeve dress shirt, suspenders, bow tie with a propeller beanie top you would look fine Dad! 🤣

friday morning.... nothing to report yet about surgery
I love you. Breaking cello strings makes me think of the unplayed violin upstairs and also Nicholas’ constant guitar practicing. He’s doing weekly lessons (2 so far) and seems to really love it. I don’t recognize everything he’s working on but he has been playing some White Stripes. hehe….Love you

Not that this was a regular occurrence, but if it ever happens again, feel free to give me a call. I’d be happy to play one of these gigs with you.

Good thought! It was very last minute (2 hour lead time with a meeting with Jen scheduled for part of this time). I will definitely remember you are willing and able. Hope things are going well for you!
