Tis the last day of work before I take leave for a short vacation to visit my wahine's `ohana in SoCal. Being summer session, my inbox has been pretty clear for the past week or so which (combined with the fact my boss stay on vacation) allowed me time to sit and strum quietly in my little cubicle to pass time as I wait.
This morning, as I talked to one of my student assistants, a coworker of mine, who I usually wala`au (talk story) with about the hanabadda days (we both grew up in Hawai`i), stops by the desk for a bit of a request. Always meaning to start the `ukulele, he asks if he could borrow one.
"Of course, cuz! I get one stay in da back. Get'um now!"
No thought, just aloha.
With two `ukulele already packed up for the trip, I had brought my spare `Ohana Vita to work. Now, it's loaned out and I'm stuck with melodies in my head for the next 6 hours, `a`ole hana, waiting for pau hana. shadow picking/strumming doesn't satisfy the thirst. `Aue!
i should be happy --> spreading `ukulele love, malama my co-worker, force myself to practice on a tenor scale, etc. but braddahs and titahs, boredom + waiting for the clock to hit pau hana time = sucks.
