[dc]M[/dc]uch to the enjoyment of my neighbors, Stephanie, bless her heart, bought me a ukulele for Christmas. [GeekMom has an informative post on ‘a’ or ‘an’ ukulele – Ed.]

A uke is an interesting instrument, as it causes an immediate reaction from my social circle, which varies depending on one’s age/generation/blood alcohol level.

Mom, aunts and uncles: “Can you play any Tiny Tim yet?”

Stephanie, sister, cousins and friends: “Can you play any Zooey Deschanel yet?”

And then, Dad: “Can you play Big Bottom yet?”

I shall do my best to learn it in time for next Christmas.
