long absence

For some reason I thought Pleo had been abandoned for Facebook, Twitter etc etc but I see that I was wrong in that assumption! Anyway after trying about 1000 combinations of passwords, I finally remembered what mine was and here we are. Have a great day! 23 days until July 11, let's see if Madeline makes it until then or if she'd like to debut sooner.

    That's funny about your mom not being able to show you how to crochet. My mom crochets, but couldn't teach me because I'm left-handed and she's right-handed. HA!

    I like "Come Fly With Me". I never got the CD, because I didn't know who sang it. Thanks.

    Although I am alive, I am working a double tomorrow and will unfortunately not be able to see you all. Sadly I also have the sore throat of the century and may or may not survive the weekend before performing an at home tonsilectomy. :)

blog bog

I'm not too great at keeping my blog current, but I am going to take this opportunity to wrap up the weekend. Yesterday, I went to the Dallas Symphony Orchestra concert and hung out with some of you afterward. It was such a great concert. Today, my friend Adam and I went to see Abby sing in a Mozart Birthday Concert at Fair Park Music Hall sponsored by Radio Disney. It was a fun day. Tomorrow I will get to see all of you which will be great. However...my competency exams are in one week! Can we just scream a little for that!? I say thanks for the one week warning. I could have used like a months warning or something, but I knew it would happen sooner or later. Happy Presidents Day!
  • vivaladiva
    aww thanks...Monday at 10 (a week from today)
    by vivaladiva at 02/20/06 9:00PM
  • vivaladiva
    Happy Prez Day to you. When will we celebrate?!
    by vivaladiva at 02/20/06 9:01PM
  • vivaladiva
    let me pass my comps and then we can breathe again
    by vivaladiva at 02/21/06 8:04AM
  • texastina
    good luck sweetheart!! I have a dream, that one day, you will be free from the bonds of your comp exams and will once again fly like a bird into celebration of MLK Day... or something like that.
    by texastina at 02/22/06 4:46PM
  • vivaladiva
    they called at 2:00 today and said it was being moved to tomorrow, so everyone think positively and pray at 1:00 Friday
    by vivaladiva at 02/23/06 9:40PM
  • vivaladiva
    Yay! I passed...I'm going to the singing at Boyd's but maybe we can see each other sometime this weekend...tomorrow?!
    by vivaladiva at 02/24/06 4:49PM
  • vivaladiva
    Well...I am going to Houston for the weekend...so next Wednesday!?
    by vivaladiva at 03/29/06 11:46AM
  • texastina
    Hey, I'll be in Houston on Sunday... will you still be there?? maybe we can bump into each other!

    Are you still alive?? We miss you!

Thank you

I have been a bit of a hermit lately with rehearsals for the opera so this weekend when I was able to come up for air and the performances begun, it meant more to me than you'll know to have seen your faces there supporting me. My family lives very far away and have work, church and other things that make it difficult to come out just for a weekend. However, when I saw a different cluster of my church family after the show each night I felt loved and blessed. I'm unfortunately not the biggest literary classics buff, so I had to look-up Melissa's character reference to me. "Maggie is torn between her passion and her duty, between following her heart or following the conventions of society." How fitting. It reminds me why being around wonderful people like you is the right way to go...always. In short, you were so supportive and I appreciate it.
  • audge
    I'm so sorry that I didn't get to come. I was out of town! I'm sure you did great though!
    by audge at 02/13/06 12:44PM
  • countrybear
    2 be truthful, I'm with U on the literary thing! On another note, I didn't know that U were N the opera 'till Friday nite and I already had other plans: sorry I wasn't able 2 make it, but I'm sure U tore it up! And I probably don't need 2 say this (b'cuz I'm sure U already know), but don't let UR "passion" over-shadow UR "duty".
    by countrybear at 02/13/06 2:26PM
  • vivaladiva
    yeah that's what I'm saying.
    by vivaladiva at 02/13/06 3:39PM
  • texastina
    it was awesome to see you too. and definitely am looking forward to any time we can fit some MLK celebrating in.

    ha! I meant I was in the opera zone :)
