drive until you lose the road

played my first song on the saxophone today. we started woodwind methods, and that is my first instrument to learn. i am having a tough time getting the lower register out... i think it's because i am used to a tight embouchure from playing trumpet.



but i was pretty pumped at least. and earlier this week, monday i think, i played my first song with both hands on the piano!! dunno if i mentioned this already, i feel like i did. at any rate, it has certainly been a learning week.

tomorrow i get to wake up at the buttcrack of dawn to go to the music building for an observation of a junior high choir. have to meet at 6 freaking 50 in the morning to be able to leave and get there in time for their class starting. GODDDDDDDDDDDD. i haven't been up that early in.... a VERY long time. shall be interesting. a little bleary eyed, i can see it now.

i broke my freaking i.d. today. of all things... i bent down to pick up a snowball to throw at my friend, and it was in my coat pocket, and it completely snapped in half. so now i have to pay 20 bucks, wait 2 weeks (with no access to the ATM) and be s.o.l. until it gets shipped to me. just peachy. looks like today was not my day.
