My first post was 15 years ago, on January 22, 2005. Here’s what I said at the time:
It’s so rare when you like a photograph of yourself! I love this one. This is me and my friend Ellen Cooper (much better drummer), drumming at her party. I’m actually drumming on a ottoman, I think. Because drumming on the drums was too loud.
A relatively quiet beginning to my blogging life. I was just talking to myself, basically.
I only drum rarely these days, maybe once a year. And I still own those glass! Although I converted them to bifocals to wear at choir practice. I still have that sweater but I never wear it.
