Trumpet

Patron and I have been talking about music for a couple minutes now.

Patron: …You should bring your trumpet in!

Me: I actually thought about donating it to the Music Department since they’re loaning instruments now.

Patron: No no, you should bring your trumpet in and play it here!

Me: Here? In the library?

Patron: Yeah

Me: In the big, stone building.

Patron: Yeah!

Me: Where everything reverberates and you can hear everything from every room in every room.

Patron: Yeah!!

Me: No thanks. My colleagues actually tell me they can hear me upstairs half the time, and that’s my normal speaking voice.

Patron: In the library?? Hah! What ever would your mother say?

Me: Probably something about how I’ve always been like this.
