Blurb 1/365: It seems like every year that passes, I have more baseline ailments. Like … sometimes I gotta sit up in bed because of acid reflux and/or nausea. When I was a kid, I could eat two scoops of ice cream and then fall asleep with my head hanging off of the couch. If I tried to do that now, I’d probably have to call in sick for work. HAHAHA. P.S. Tonight’s one of those nausea nights :O( S’ok, I’ll just sit up and turn up The Simpsons :O)

Musical Pipe Dream: I’m on BART and a few kids onboard at the Lake Merrit station with this drum beat playing out loud on one of their phones. They start rapping and the all of us other passengers start to get into it. Most of us are clapping and some are recording video with their phones. When Master Gee’s intro comes in and he says, “On and on and on on and on”, I do a glide step in a box form. My face gets close to one of the cameras at the second step and you can see my big eyeball before I slide away.

Musical Pipe Dream: I’m wearing a long sleeve, button down, matte silk shirt; it’s CMYK with black panel breast pockets. I’m playing the trumpet in the horn section. We’re kicking our knees forward while pointing our toes down towards the ground then we kick ball change to the opposite foot. We two step as we make our way to the microphone for the hook: Oooooo and I like it …

Song of the Day: The Stroll by The Diamonds

Musical Pipe Dream: I have a strap around my neck that is attached to my saxophone. When I’m not playing the saxophone, I swing it like an oar, to and fro. My feet are tapping to the beat with each heel stepping forward on the opposite side of the saxophone. When the saxophone chimes in, I lean forward for the first note, then lean back and move the saxophone in a circle motion on the syncopation. Then I fall back into line and keep rowing and tapping.

Musical Pipe Dream: I’m on a cruise ship and two stepping it with the rest of the orchestra. We’re synced and our moves and sound are on point. The lights are down low and the reflections of the stage lights shine off of all the brass and create golden rays all over the room.
