Nerves

As I pack up for my three-day music workshop I'm suddenly getting a case of nerves. We're leaving at 6:30 AM to arrive in Pittsburgh at around 8, having breakfast then heading into the workshop. 9AM to 7PM both Friday and Saturday, 9AM to 5PM on Sunday. The nerves are coming because I am taking a... Sign in to see full entry.

Connections, pt 2

Yet again my Internet service cut out shortly after I posted Monday, but this time it was completely out. I was fairly certain that the problem was on my provider's end. Before I called, though, I checked the modems and connections, and they all were in order. Ordinarily I try not to yell at CS... Sign in to see full entry.

He sent me a FB message today: Strangest dream last night...I was at a restaurant with you, two casual acquaintances from high school, and a distant cousin. you were ordering one dessert after another....

I'm just sittin here watching the wheels go round n round...

On every device I own. I can't believe the connection is staying up long enough for me to type this. I've lost two posts already and had to revert to pen-and-paper journaling. I'm now aware of how much I rely on the backspace key when I write. My journal is covered with scratches and nothing worth... Sign in to see full entry.

Connections

It is 16 degrees where I live, and the chill is wreaking havoc our Internet connection. For as much as we pay, a cover for the junction box would be a nice little customer service bonus, but our provider is, well, crappy. When I called to suggest this, my idea wasn't anywhere in the reps script or... Sign in to see full entry.

Very Weird Factoid

My husband gets me one of those page-a-day calendars every year. This year's calendar is titled 365 More Facts That Will Scare The S#*t Out Of You. Today I looked at the calendar and whoops! I haven't ripped pages since Jan 20. I stopped at January 25: Between 1808 and 1904, a creature dubbed Spring... Sign in to see full entry.

Schedules

Time to write means making time to read. Nautikos left a comment with a new title to add to my reading list. His suggestion gives me a new title to add to my 2015 Ultimate Reading Challenge. I’ve recently finished Game of Thrones, the first book in George R.R. Martin’s Song of Ice and Fire series,... Sign in to see full entry.

Musical Brain

JimmyA left me a comment yesterday in response to my Music Together post about a country singer named Mel Tillis. He had a terrible stutter when he spoke but sang like silk. As you pointed out, Jimmy, it is an amazing phenomenon, and your comment made me think of my friend’s John’s mother. We call... Sign in to see full entry.

Music Together

Nothing like projectile vomiting to make you want to write. NOT. Feeling better thanks to my Tempurpedic. So Feb 6-8 I will be completing a continuing ed workshop for a program titled Music Together. It's a music program geared mostly toward families with babies & toddlers, developed by a couple of... Sign in to see full entry.

Self-Evaluation

I've been a musician all my life and recently I've been getting paid for it. Does "getting paid for it" mean I'm a professional? Anyway, I've recorded & been in bands, I teach guitar, I lead a small church choir, and now I am about to teach voice. I have no teacher training (but that's going to... Sign in to see full entry.
