Today, I joined a violin club. We rehearse four times a week! The catch is, you only show up when you feel like it. Today, we were three. I was put to the test! I suspect that only I was sight-reading.
Today, earlier today, I laid down the law. Said I:
I don't REALLY care if you giggle and text while your classmates are presenting
BUT

and FURTHERMORE
I will give you a LOW GRADE if you
keep up this nonsense
now DON'T MAKE ME try to say this in RUSSIAN!
Dearest Siberian Pen Pal: Your posts bring me such joy, to know that a whole new part of the world is getting to know Leo Brown.
