    Gracie doesn’t play an instrument, she plays with it.

    That would be a plectrum, not a pick.

    He had a chance to learn to play a guitar, but he blew it.

    That’s a classical guitar which is virtually always played with just your fingers (though George Harrison made an exception for a solo on an early Beatles song).

    I predict in some future installment, Gracie will ask Papi, “How do you get down off an elephant?”, to which he will reply “Silly child, you don’t get down off an elephant, you get down off a goose.”

    I was kicked out of guitar class due to a difference of opinion with the teacher – I said I could play it, he said I could not.

    Unfortunately what I did not know then was that I was tone deaf and did not have any sort of rhythm. I came from a family of listeners (can’t sing, just listen) and my husband will be very patient when I feel the need to sing, but I can see the pain on his face.

    We are 18th century reenactors and husband decided that it was important for me to be able to recognize one particular song which served as a sort of national anthem for the colonists during the American Revolution (NOT Yankee Doodle Dandy). When we were at reenactments and the song was played he would ask me what the song was and I would get it wrong as each time it sounded like one or another other songs. I finally realized that whenever he asked me it was that song playing, so to make him happy I started naming the song whenever he asked me – he was happy he that he had taught me to recognize the song. Then one day he asked me what song was playing for some other reason and it was NOT that song – so I answered wrong and he found out that I had just being saying the name of the song whenever he asked me (and period music was playing).
