Tomorrow is our Summer Chorale Concert, and really, it should be pretty good (especially considering we're mostly random UW staff members and PhD candidates in the sciences and computers)!  And I have an entire movement of the Telemann as a solo (ack!), so come if you can!

I'm back from Tahoe!  I had a great time, which I'll post about later with pictures.  I know I said I'd do that for Hungary and I haven't yet -- maybe I'll finally get around to it.

Anyway, right now I'm a teensy bit freaked out about this week.  See?

Today: Conduct choir for the first time ever!  ACK!
Wednesday: Summer Chorale concert, in which we're ( Read more... )

I need coffee so bad right now that it isn't funny.  Wow.  I hate it when my caffeine dependence rears its ugly head.  But I do love my iced lattes in the summer... tasty. :)

Last night I went to friend's house for dinner after choir, and ohmygosh we had the BEST pork skewers EVER!  They were glazed with soy sauce, brown sugar, and peanut butter, ( Read more... )

Holy crap, today was a LONG ASS DAY (as per entry title).  I may even go so far as to say that this was the longest day of my life.

Why?

Because I worked for 10.75 hours.

And included in that was getting ready for Open House, doing Open House, giving two admissions sessions, singing with Chamber Singers, acting as photographer, problem solver, host, ( Read more... )

I have not slept well for the last couple of days, and it's really taking it's toll on me.  Maybe it's because I haven't taken a walk since Friday.  That seems to be the new thing that balances me nowadays ( Read more... )

I am so so tired, and trying so desperately to stay awake so that I can actually sleep tonight.  See, I slept way too much on the plane from London to Seattle (7 hours... bad Jenni), and somehow managed to sleep another 12 hours Friday night.  But alas, last night I couldn't really sleep, and I'm hoping to not have a repeat performance.  They say ( Read more... )

Does anyone use photobucket?  I'm trying to figure out how to upload all of my Hungary pictures at once, rather than do it one by one... Any tips?

Or is flickr better?  Help me, please!!!  I'm clueless with digital cameras!

I'm ba-ack!

And that's all for now.  Off to bed to try to readjust to Seattle time.

Pictures and stories to come tomorrow-ish! 

ACK!  I leave in 15 minutes!  Dress... check.  Music...check.  Black pants and Chamber Singers t-shirt... check.  Those are the most important things, so I guess I'm good!

I'm going to HUUUUUUUUN-GAAAAAAAAR-YYYYYYYYY!!!

And I'm going to see RENT with E*Beth in May!  Yip!

T minus 2.25 hours...

So, I'm going to Hungary so soon it's scary, but I seem not to quite believe it.  Case in point... I'm sitting here wrapped in a towel, eating my protein-laden lunch, just chilling.  I still need to buy razor blades and go to the bank, but since that's all within two blocks from my place, I'm not particularly concerned.  It ( Read more... )
