Happy random Friday thoughts

Ah, spring! I am so happy it's spring-y outside. I am not a cold weather person. One of the ways I knew Gabe was perfect for me was when he said he would never live in a place where it snows. Yes, I make major life decisions based on climate. It's a huge part of life! Don't judge.

Yesterday I went to Ken the Keyboarder's house and we "jammed." That's musician speak for getting together and playing random music. It seems like things are going well. I really like singing, but I'm still a little timid. It's been a while and I'm rusty. Occasionally I'll have bursts of letting go, but it's very vulnerable. I just have to build a little confidence in myself. The only way to do that is to sing more.

So I'll probably take some lessons or some singing classes. It would be optimal to do it in a group setting, to get to know people and also to get used to singing in front of groups again. I'm excited.

Also exciting is that our honeymoon is coming up. We're going to Orlando to explore the Disneyverse. I am doing research like a crazy person, and I'm having lots of fun figuring it all out.

So much fun in fact, that I realize it's been a week since I talked to any of my friends. I have done some emailing and a little instant messaging but I think it's a bad idea to get out of touch with what is still my home base for now, as far as my support network.

Oh, and I need your help again. I am still looking for song suggestions, but now I have more of a focus. I'm looking for pop, standards and easier listening. Stuff that's pretty popular. Think Norah Jones, Colbie Caillat, Michelle Branch. I know it's not exactly thrilling but I'm really able to nail that stuff. And that's what I need to get my confidence up.
