and now some singing.....

So, I don't wear skirts to work so much anymore, but I had an audition right after work yesterday and I took my "dress up" clothes, a nice black skirt with embroider around the hem, a black tank and a pink linen jacket to the office so I could change there before the audition. When I came down from the ladies room, one of my co-workers ( the cretin) said,
M: "What is that? a costume? I didn't know you wore a costume for an audition"
Me:
M: No really, is that a costume?
Me:
Anyway, I ignored him and went on to sing very well in spite of the nerves. (Donde lieta from La Boheme.)

In other singing news, I have a concert next week coming up in which I am singing the Kodaly Missa Brevis with the very high soprano solo line, High sustained PPPPPianissimo b's and c's.
Yeah right, they'll get one dymanic level out of me and it won't be ppppianissimo baby. I'll be sure to post an mp3 file.

Not much knitting, I've started a small felted bag to carry my cd player to the gym. I want to start listening to some audio books now that the library has started carrying them, and it takes to much trouble to download them as mp3 files to my player. So the old fashioned cd method will have to do.

I had a great weekend up at my mom's with a terrific brunch prepared by my niece, pics to follow.
