Jor Jor the Musical Fish is trying to get my attention this morning by ringing the bloody heck out of her windchimes.

"Too much computer! Too little fish training!" After several months of working with windchimes, we went back to our handbell chord project. (We are compiling a recorded library of Jor Jor playing three-part chords for use in her upcoming CD, "Unknown Waters, Common Ground.") Jor Jor used to love playing handbells, but now she's spoiled by the much easier to play chimes. She will play the bells, reluctantly, but she gives me a dirty look! "Really? You want me to knock those clunky bells around instead of the easy and elegant chimes? You are SO pedestrian! Take a music appreciation class, woman!""
