Angels & Yankees

So, today I had my chance to be on the OTHER, more familiar side of the table in my very own Angels audition. It was wonderful to walk into a room of so many smiling and friendly faces. I sang my first piece, "The Beauty Is" perhaps the most comfortable and enjoyable piece in my "book" and then Laura asked for another style. But at this point, I had horrible, horrible cotton dry mouth. Lips were stuck to my gums. I could barely utter out any consonants. But I got through it...and had a revelation: My saliva is accustomed to 16 bars, not TWO whole songs!

On a lighter note, I just returned home from my first Yankees game! So much fun! The Yankees were losing when we left and it was FREEZING cold. I was expecting 60 degree weather and it was closer to 40. Lindsay's boss gave her the free seats in a GREAT section. Unfortunately the Yankees did not score through the 7 innings we watched. But a foot-long hot-dog and some Crackerjacks mixed in with sightings of A-Rod, Jeter and Damon made for good times!!

I go to Seattle tomorrow to see the Larsons! Can't wait!
