Musical Pipe Dream: I’m on stage with the entire cast of Clue with several microphones in front of us. We are two-stepping front and back while snapping our fingers and singing. We switch directions after 16 counts.

Blurb 1/365: I’ve come to enjoy practicing human interaction with strangers. For example, I opened a door for a food delivery man. When he said thanks, I smiled and gave him the peace sign. Another example is when I was finished buying a gift card, I said, “Thanks muh-man.” and I walked out of the store like a baller. All of these interactions have just the right amount of oddity that I intend to translate into kindness. Practice makes perfect! Next on my list: Get a top hat and answer only in gestures of tipping my hat and smiling.

Musical Pipe Dream: I have a strap around my neck that is attached to my saxophone. When I’m not playing the saxophone, I swing it like an oar, to and fro. My feet are tapping to the beat with each heel stepping forward on the opposite side of the saxophone. When the saxophone chimes in, I lean forward for the first note, then lean back and move the saxophone in a circle motion on the syncopation. Then I fall back into line and keep rowing and tapping.
