on the death of a good friend
February 16, 2010
Before you freak out, I am not that devastated about this loss. Why?
Because it was the death of an inanimate object.
More specifically, my clarinet mouthpiece (which I’ve used for almost four years) has cracked. When I was cleaning it (by boiling the mouthpiece as told by a fellow player), I pulled it out with a fresh seam.
YAYYYY.
The only good thing to come from this sad ordeal is the fact that I HAVE TO GET a new mouthpiece, and I found the same one online marked down from $165 to about $70. So, all in all, a fairly good day.
Update: The mouthpiece has turned brown. Not just normal, wood-bark brown. DOG POOP BROWN.
EWWWWWW.
I’m going to go pray that the new one gets here soon.
