Ebony & Ivory

I bought my piano when I first moved into my house. But in the 3 years I've had it, I've barely used it. I think Bruce has played it more than I have and I've only known him for about a month.
The last year, it was underneath a tarp. Now, that construction is done, it's been begging me to play it. I see it sitting there, thinking how lovely it looks and how wonderful it would sound if someone played it right!
I took lessons from elementary to junior high, when I became "too cool" to be playing piano. I still know how to read notes and I can dissect sheet music until a "song" gets cranked out of my clutzy fingers.
Well, I think the time has come to benefit from my financial investment. I think I mentioned before that Bruce's roommate, Marty, used to play for The Wailers. He now teaches piano lessons.
So, I'm taking that step to taking lessons again. I start on Thursday. As awesome as Classical music is, I've been there done that. Now I want to focus on jazzy/pop tunes. I'm so excited!
