Spring Bre-
Mar. 19th, 2008 09:34 pmI'd still like to know how it got passed that this year's spring break got shortened from three days (Thu, Fri, and Mon) to just two this year (Fri and Mon). I'm feeling a twinge gypped.
Short, short takes
Apr. 13th, 2006 09:38 pmI'm on spring break now, so my regular computer-cruising schedule is thrown way off. Much has happened, here are the headlines.
-Palm Sunday performance went well, and re-inspired me to continue my choral compositions, get the women's piece finished and really take the Gloria seriously. New ideas, too, which'll help.
-Music class management in-service at CMU. Only slightly necessary for me /dripping sarcasm. Very good, very, very good. Lunch at Schatz dining also bonus. Found and spoke with Douglas Ahlstedt, am sending him music for "I Seek Your Face" for feedback, possible (??) performance? Maybe? Also want to collaborate w/him for writing communion anthems.
-Finished first collaboration song w/GS, lyricist from Philly. He and his wife really liked the song, could tell I enjoyed doing it, and he's real hopeful. I have two more to do to make a demo CD which he will then send to record labels. As he said, "It only takes one song to open the door"... Good god I hope...
-Next song looks like it might be country. Eek!
-New TV today. 32". New TV stand, too. Yay, open-model discount plus gift-cardage.
-Bad husband today. No biscuit.
-One new publisher found to send music to, KJOS, and a composition contest in Italy for choral music that I'm sending "Seek" to. Hey, it's free, and what the hell? Who knows?
-I'm tired. My daughter didn't get the memo that my spring break started today and was ready for breakfast at 6:11 this morning. Must find my secretary and work that out.
