Suddenly I’m very busy. I’m singing two concerts with The Good Choir and they have lots of rehearsals.

Missed opportunities

Yesterday was Tertiary Adjunct’s 9th birthday. (Younger brother of the twins 1of2 and 2of2) I had planned to wish him a happy birthday, but of course I chickened out. I failed to ask 1of2 and 2of2 about the dance they were doing in the parking lot last week too. Most of the older choirboys were [...]

The Boys are moving in in July. I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, it will please my father to have another source of rent. And it will ease my burdon slightly having someone to share the utilities. Also, I’ll have company again.
On the other hand, I’ll have company again. I’ve gotten [...]
No slow tears this time

I have to get to bed soon. Hour drive to rehearsal tomorrow morning.
It amazes me every time I go to an English Cathedral Choir concert, that first note sung by the boys. Such an incredible, beautiful, surprising sound. I hope I never get used to it, no matter how often I hear it.
I hear the [...]
Dread

I’m teaching voice lessons from 3 to 9 tomorrow. I really don’t want to. As in, I’m absolutely dreading it.

I am listening to one of the first CDs I ever bought. When I was 13 my mother took me to the newly opened Borders in the town. I selected two CDs to buy with my allowance that remain among my favorites in my now considerable collection. Exultate is a Vienna Boychoir CD featuring soloist Max [...]

The Boys (once again, not actually children) are gay. OK. Established. Their best friend, Grace, sometimes gets annoyed with them because quite frequently when they’re talking about someone, or they pass an attractive male stranger on the street, they’ll immediately say, “he’s gay.” It angers Grace, so she usually responds, “not every man is gay.”
That’s [...]
An interesting week

It has been an interesting week. It started off normal enough. I got the bulletins done early for Sunday and received music from The Saint for an out of town gig and next Sunday. The reasons I did the bulletins early, however, is not so normal. I had jury duty this week. On Wednesday I [...]
