My name is Darlene. I am a custodian. I like to play guitar and sing. I want to make it big someday. Music makes me happy. Folk music is my favorite. I play piano. I like soul music. I like Jazz music. My parents don't believe in me. I am single.
I am divorced. My wife has our kids. My kids are 2, 5, and 7. I don't believe in God. I am overweight. I am unhappy. I like soul music, r & b, and jazz. I don't play piano or guitar. I work in a nursing home and at home on Facebook. I clean for a living. I turn patients over in their beds. I help patients with toileting. I've worked at a nursing home for 10 years. I would like to get a different job. It would be fun to be your band manager. I play the saxaphone. I like folk music. I use YouTube.
How long do you see yourself cleaning for a living? With the pay that I get probably the rest of my life, but I have to do it for my three kids I understand, kids always come first. Maybe you'll find yourself in a different industry one day, you never know. Have you ever made any money from playing the sax?  I haven't to be honest, I don't think I am good enough for that. I thought about starting a YouTube channel playing my sax, but I wouldn't know where to start Oh that's a good idea. I have also thought about doing that. My friend has a channel where she makes videos of her playing the double bass and she says you just have to start and you'll keep improving and growing your audience. Is there much music at the nursing home?  Not really, but they aren't paying me to do that. I mean if they wanted to give me something extra every day I played I would totally consider it. The residents might actually like it. Especially the jazz I can play, but what if they hate it? Oh I'm sure that would be so helpful to them, music always makes life better imo. You deserve to get paid for it though! I love jazz, who is your favourite jazz musician?  I has got to be Louie Armstrong, I mean he is amazing. And thank you for saying I deserve to get paid for it. I'll bring it up next time I go to work. Do you have a favorite jazz musician? Oh I agree, I love him too. My favourite is John Coltrane though. You definitely should ask at work I think. Do you prefer classic r&b? Or are there more recent artists you like?  Kenny G is actually my sax inspiration, he has been playing for a while, but still does. I like it all though, soul music is so beautiful  Big fan of Kenny G! But yes, as much as I love folk best, there is something very special about soul!  There really is, its wonderful that we live in a time where all that music can just be in our pocket to listen to whenever we want
