I don’t wanna work

When I’m not pretending to be a carpenter, I take on other hobbies. I love playing guitar (I also sort of hate playing the guitar. It’s a strange relationship). I try to sing. Something I don’t get to do very often is play the drums. I started playing the guitar in 6th or 7th grade and most people know I’ve been doing it for a long time. But I also love to play the drums. Here’s a picture of me looking cool in some dark garage:

The drums were never really portable or accessible. Even though you can cram a full set into a car the size of a Civic, it’s still hard to find a place where you can play without getting yelled at. And I’ve been yelled at a lot. I started playing in 8th grade when I found that all my other friends played guitar too and none of us played the drums. After I moved out of my dad’s house I couldn’t really play the drums because doing so would’ve gotten me evicted from my apartments. I miss it though and will eventually get an electric kit. There’s just something so fun and beautiful about beating the crap out of something with sticks. Along with lugging a guitar around with me from city to city, I also always have a drum practice pad with me everywhere I go. My apologies to my coworkers.
