Has anyone else here done an Oral Glucose Tolerance test?

If you haven't, don't. I have a hole in each arm, one fingerprick, and I generally feel like shit.

[Hannah]

My mother and sister both have. Well, a glucose tolerance. I don't know about the oral part.

Then dad went all anti-doctor on us. I never have and most likely never will. I also could die of cance but, you know, I think it's worth it. (<---Joke. Cancer sucks. I shan't belittle it or anything.)

Why can't they bump up the release date? I can't wait until NOVEMBER. I'm gonna dieee....

Lol, Ol' Xeno is hilarious.

Trying to pick out Love Song on piano.... It's not going incredibly well.

I hate piano. v.v Guitar and ukulele are so much easier.

[Hannah]

Have you tried to learn piano? It's a bitch. At least, compared to guitar. There are all those damn scales and weird chords you have to memorize. v.v

[nathan_p]

I've played piano for the past ten years. I never mastered guitar -- so I do what with my one hand and I play the actual notes with my other one? Ah, that's not fuckin right...

As it is, I do have to be a bit smug: I once took a Music Theory class with a bunch of guitar and drum players.

The first half of the semester was dedicated to mastering both clefs, musical notation, and keys.

...admittedly, I learned to play piano while I was still very young. The older you get, the harder it is to learn any language.

[Hannah]

I took piano lessons for two years. I can't read music worth shit and the only songs I can play are the songs in the book about robots and sailboats.

I taught myself guitar and within one year I could play at least a simplified version of pretty much any song I knew. I understood how the notes worked and everything.

Ukulele was just easier because there's only four strings and the chords are simpler.

[nathan_p]

Yer, everyone's different, I guess. Piano came naturally to me after a while with my big hands (I have about a ten-key reach, and about an octave when I was younger) -- but I never really 'got' guitar. vOv

[Hannah]

That makes sense... I can reach seven keys but it hurts my fingers kinda bad. Six is comfortable. *tiny hands*

[nathan_p]

XD Yeah... lately I've been working on "Fur Elise", which has some really goofy parts where the notes span octaves within a few seconds. My enormous man hands allow me to finger those parts without too much awkward pain.

[Hannah]

It even makes it hard to play guitar because barre chords are fucked and I can't bring my thumb around and mute certain strings. I finally can play a D without awkward strumming though. :D

I suppose this makes you one of the few girls who could stand a chance at playing something by Rachmaninoff?
