Things I Love Today: My New Hobby

It was really just a matter of time before I got sucked into Rob’s new musical fixation. He’s been taking ukulele lessons for the past four months and has become pretty good. Now he needs backup for his renditions of Something and that’s where I come in.

Last night, I became the proud owner of a gigantic acoustic bass guitar. Honestly, it’s about 4 1/2 feet long.

I think I may have uncovered my secret musical talent with this instrument. After 15 minutes in the store, I figured out how to play the opening bit from Smoke on the Water with no music or instruction. I’m a musical rock star genius!
