And Today Is …

Saturday, April 30th, 2005

National Honesty Day.
So, honestly?
I’m nervous about tonight, but last night went pretty well. Now I can take last night two ways. 1) I’m okay with tonight and things will be fine. 2) I used up everything last night and tonight will go horribly.
Yes. There you go.
I haven’t decided yet which is the truth.
The other [...]

I guess I’m slow

Try This.
I’m considered a “bobbing bobcat” and they suggest I need a cuppa coffee. Hmmm.

A Mini Vacation is Coming My Way!

Wednesday, April 27th, 2005

… or maybe I’m going its way? Hmmm.
So I made my hotel and plane reservations today. It’s a Done Deal. I’m going to see Kelsey for Mom’s day. Yippee!
(But I AM sorry, Mom, that I won’t be here to celebrate with you; we’ll do something prior to my departure, okay?)
I’m home from our double rehearsal, [...]

Today

Wednesday, April 27th, 2005

is Babe Ruth Day.
Why? Here you go: On April 27, 1947, Babe Ruth attended Yankee Stadium for Babe Ruth Day. I guess that’s all it took! And I think what this means is that I should stay home and watch baseball. I like to honor these folks who are so special they have a [...]

No More Money Worries!

You just have to see these pictures! <— That there is the link, btw.
You never know what a penguin might be concealing. (Be sure and click on all six pictures. Very cute!)

I Think I Need A Vacation

Monday, April 25th, 2005

… or at least I want one!
I think I need to get away. Opera was stressful for me. This week will be as well — and maybe even more so — because I’m playing principal and I have rather important solos. I have mediocre reeds. Sigh. I won’t know how the pieces really feel until [...]

Um … Excuse Me?

Monday, April 25th, 2005

This from the Mercury News:

VATICAN CITY - Pope Benedict XVI said Monday he had viewed the idea of being elected pope as a “guillotine,” and he prayed to God during the recent conclave to be spared selection but “evidently this time He didn’t listen to me.”

Was this said in jest? I’m assuming so! I’m hoping [...]

You Want Frys With That?

Monday, April 25th, 2005

What I read on a sign in Santa Cruz:
“Your choice: organic salad or frys.”
Yes.
So I’m trying to figure out if they are offering up the electronics store, making an error and forgetting the apostrophe, or if they are offering fries.
Okay. I’m not really that stupid.
Just that silly.
Dan took a picture of me that looks [...]
