Lovely Saturday

It’s going to beĀ  28 celcius (83 American) today. Whee!

I need to buy some summer clothes today. Wish me strength.

Tomorrow’s the show. I’m not pukey nervous yet. I’m excited.

Bought The Color Purple last night. I love that movie so much. Wanted to watch it especially for the singing. Now I need to find my book.

My first gig

My first gig

Wheee!

So, apparently, someone called in to the station to request some SDD.

The dj, a friend, played the first track, the one w/ me singing Song w/ No Name, then talked up the show I’m gonna be in. She and her co-host told me how beautiful my voice was, how it inspired one of them to maybe start singing. Also, how much lighter I seem since I dealt w/ the crush situation.

Life is good right now.

New song

For St. Paddy’s day, a cover of Shane McGowan & the Pope’s Song With No Name.

And I got a tooth pulled today. I’m hardcore.

My version.

The original.

On the Road

A new song from my band. Two takes. All awesome.

Saturday evening

Good god, this flu has knocked me on my ass. Missed three days of work, which I cannot afford. I went in yesterday to do my show. We did a Q Transmissions on Scientology. I’ve been watching videos from Xenu TV all weekend. Fucking scary.

I’ve been so stressed about work. Cannot catch up and everything just seems to be getting worse. I Facebooked the chick who did the job before my predecessor. That helped. It’s a stressful job that’ll keep being stressful. Blah. I’m going in Monday. It’s a holiday, so hopefully it’ll be quieter.

Bought a Crackberry. Love it. A lot. It’s a world version, so I can use it next time I travel, wherever that’ll be. Hopefully Iceland.

Finally got my sheet music in the mail. Haven’t tried the whole thing, just the chorus. Nancy, if I send you a pdf of it, will you record the whole thing so I can learn it?

Haven’t been playing my uke much lately ’cause of the ill and the busy.

A new friend has a crush. We commiserated. She acted on it and got a positive outcome. I’m happy for her, but of course am sad and jealous, too. I’m so tired of feeling that way.

Something’s wrong w/ me…

The little girl in this video just destroys me.

Seriously, I’ve watched it twice and it just makes me weep.

Sometimes I see people on the bus, or wherever, (even silly stock photos) and am overcome w/ sympathy. If it were in my power, I’d make everyone, everyone, feel better.

Lovely

Kate Bush playing a uke? Heaven.

Holy cow

Look what I’ve found. And it’s even the same cover art as in the clip. Yay!

Uke attack!

I wanna bring my uke to America.

Hope that’s okay.
