1/4 sized violins are an urban legend.

We have been to every music store this side of the mountain, and nobody has any. We've asked for purchases, rentals, ANYTHING, and nobody has any. I'm tired of dealing with these people, and I'm tired of running all over town when I have to have dinner on the table by 5 pm, and can't possibly do it when I'm running all over the city getting turned away by every snobby-ass violin salesman in town.

Saturday, Thak has to go back to Viva Dodge early in the morning, but should be done there before noon. After that, we're going to try one last time, hit every music store in the entire US side of the metro area, including the New Mexico side. If we still find nothing, then Erin will not play violin this year. I think it REALLY sucks that the school leased out all of its violins to students at the westside location, so those of us on the east were pretty well screwed, and had to get our own (and on VERY short notice) when we had been told that we would have the option of leasing through the school. It really didn't seem so bad until it became very apparent that it wasn't as simple as going and getting what we needed.

Oh, and I HATE violin salesmen. HATE THEM.
