    That night, Brooke & David invited me over for dinner, to say thanks.

    I might have mentioned before that Brooke is a really good cook. He made spaghetti & meatballs, and it was very, very, very good. I volunteered to help with the dishes.

    "NO!" David shouted, "you're our guest and this dinner is to say thanks. I will do the dishes."

    David was so nice.

    While he did the dishes, Brooke & I went to the music room. She'd been giving me piano lessons, and I worked out "Here Comes the Sun," while reading fron the piano book.

    "Great job!" Brooke told me, "except you played it in the wrong key!"

    Oops.

    "Try the key of A major," Brooke said, "start on C sharp."

    It was so much easier in that key. Apparently, I had been playing in the key of A flat. I didn't even know such a key existed.

    "Why don't you stay the night?" Brooke asked, "we can work on this more, and watch corny movies!"

    What could be better?

    I called my mom and told her I was spending the night. She said okay.

    Brooke & I spent two hours on "Here Comes the Sun." She was a great teacher. She made everything to easy to understand. At the end of those two hours, I could play through 'Here Comes the Sun," almost perfectly.

    We also watched a dumb movie, which I won't take the time to describe.

    After the movie, we looked at the clock and realized it was 12:30 AM. Brooke loaned me a pair of pajamas, and they weren't that big on me, because Brooke's small. In fact, the pajamas were a pretty good fit. I climbed into my bed in their guest room and fell asleep within 10 minutes.
