Happiness is a Tuned Piano

I had my piano tuned this morning. It had been about a year since its last tuning, which is longer than I like between tunings, but it's been that kind of year. The piano sounds wonderful now, so of course, my playing sounds great, too, even when it isn't. And I can now play "China Gates" by John Adams without feeling disoriented. The harmonies in that piece are such that it almost sounds like a different piece if the piano is too out of tune.
I am filled with such warm fuzzy feelings towards my piano that I am almost thinking of throwing it a party in two years, when it will be 20 years old.
