@33MHz @bascule_rascule hello! I'd honestly forgotten I had an account for this place. I hope you are well. :)

@bascule_rascule indeeed! πŸ˜† Welcome back around. Busy busy, just bought some books on the company dime to learn programmy things in the new year. ☺️ We have a piano coming on Friday!! 🎹

@33MHz @bascule_rascule jealous re the piano! Do you play or are you going to learn?
1055090
@Bascule_Rascule I play many instruments badly... I'm hoping to learn more piano once it's here, but it's first for the kids, to encourage them to play.

@33MHz I'm sure they'll love it. I can only play the right hand on a piano. Not quite sure why I never took the time to learn the left.
1055093
@Bascule_Rascule what an idea! Er, I guess I'm not sure what that even means. You're proficient with right-hand pieces? Or you actually can play with just your right hand some things? I had percussion lessons in high school, so I would play "piano" on the»

@Bascule_Rascule marimba... So two or four fingers at a time. ;)

@33MHz I can play the treble-clef notes but can't read the bass part properly. I only learnt the right because I needed to know E, A, D and G for tuning my violin.

@bascule_rascule ah, that makes sense. 😌

@Bascule_Rascule That's amazing! I took piano lessons for 3 or 4 years in middle/high school but it didn't really stick. I can still pick out the notes and play a simple melody but putting everything together is not that easy for me anymore.

@bascule_rascule "bascule" is so far off from "because"…

@33MHz I had no idea "bascule" came from a misspelling of "because"! Is that really true? @bascule_rascule

@joanna na, I just saw someone say it online! @bascule_rascule
1055057
@joanna @bascule_rascule @33MHz ha! No, comes from a character in Iain M Banks' Feersum Endjinn.
