I don’t read music.

But I think you’re funny.

I love that our choir director tells jokes for the benefit of the Tenors (who are all a bunch of wiseacres). I feel your pain.

I was telling my dad this story tonight as he was leaving for choir practice. He said to tell you his choir director was hard on the Altos too.

Those do not look like fun intervals to pick out amidst the other parts, especially the second altos.

I know.. I’m a smart ass too. I make a hilarious joke and people saythings like “what do you mean by that?”
You GET me!

That is some seriously shitty music, I don’t care how good it sounds when you put it all together.

I’ll stop whining about my Josh Groban piece now…

No, I won’t. Who the HELL makes a choir sing both Bach and Josh Groban?? GAAAH

ME: oh yeh, you should read my post.

REAL LIFE: what language do you write your blog in?

ME: sarcasm.

REAL LIFE: sar–wha?

we are glad to have you as well.

the joy of “noncommittal, indirect, never actually see a person but know more about them than their spouse” friendships . . . ahhhh.

And then did you tap a fake microphone and ask “is thing on?”

Loralee said clashing intervals.

I can read music minimally but really it just looks kind of boring.

Why can’t people just know things are funny contextually and react accordingly? I worked with this evil person (EVIL DR. EVIL EVIL) in grad school and we were leaving the union where she forced me to go get her stupid lunch with her every day although she didn’t like me. And there was a guy sitting there at one lone Earth Day table, in the midst of all of these overprivileged private university students who didn’t give a crap about the Earth. And he was just sitting there, reading, contentedly repping the Earth. And I made a comment to that effect, and she said, “GOD you just say the WEIRDEST MOST RANDOM THINGS like what IS THAT?”

And then I killed her, and said “All you had to do was laugh.”

Not really, but you know I still think about it occasionally and wish I’d at least popped her tires, if I were the tire-popping sort.

*Cringe*
Just start singing something else anyway. See if you can show them the error of their ways.

Also, I’m still jealous.
