I don't miss f@ceb00k, but I miss some of the people I interacted with over there. I don't know them well enough IRL to reach out. So, RIP, old virtual friends.

The timing of this bodhran arriving from Ireland on my Irish papa's birthday/Saint Patrick's Day. A little glimmer of hope, spark of joy, and a new instrument to practice 😌
