People Are Silly

My sister Ace wanted me to start up a blog. She thinks I'm funny. I think I'm probably over-opinionated, but she insisted that I start this blog. So, here it is.

At first, I had no idea what I would write about. Ace claimed everything I say is hilarious.
I love pipecleaners.

Are you laughing yet?

Anyway, I didn't have anything to write about. Until now!

I am a beginner violin player, and have started practicing with a church group. After I played in public for the first time, I received some very nice compliments. They were lovely, but I found something very odd about them.

Every person accompanied their compliment with a "I'm playing the violin" miming action.
Example: "I loved your *extends left arm, pretends to hold a violin, and then pretends to draw the bow across the strings*! It was so lovely!"


One man even hummed along with his action. "Oh, I didn't know you hmmm-haa-hmmmm-ed!*crazy violin playing* Good job!"


People are silly. And I love it!
