actually was looking for the mood "impatient," but, alas, it was not there, which is funny because, for once, I can actually put into words the exact way I am feeling
tap, tap, tap, wait, wait, wait
looking out the window for the delivery truck
a couple of days ago i was invited to play oboe w/a friend who plays violin
we are going to play Christmas songs in the lobby before a Christmas performance thing, you know, mood music as people come in and find their seats
just my kind of thing
except, well, I don't play very much anymore, and I don't have any good reeds
So, what to do?
overnight a couple of reeds because I don't have time to make some
well, that and I have no cane, and working on reeds with a 6mos old baby grabbing things just would not work right now
you know how well babies and knives and razor blades mix
well, anyway
here's the thing
they have this package tracking # and I have been checking online
so I know my reeds are close by
they were in a nearby town before 8 this morning
and they have been in my town since about 9 or 10
and the delivery person is just driving around and around, not delivering my reeds!!!!
ok, I know, I know, it is a busy time, but, man it is taking longer for this package to get to me since it has been in my state, than how long it took to get from New Hampshire to KY
so, anyway, wish me luck with my reeds and Christmas music
cause yeah, I have to play tomorrow night
I am really looking forward to it
especially my 2 younger children don't really know what an oboe is, & have never heard me play
(that is not great for someone with a college degree in music)
