ellienihonI am grateful:
1) for my bio-family
2) for my family of choice.
3) that I have had so many interesting experiences.
4) for the indulgence of my wonderful girlfriend, R.
5) for L.
6) for free transportation options.
7) for life without cable.
8) for music and singing.
9) for community.
Friday, R. and L. went with me to the Interclub Holiday party. It was great to see a lot of people I don't see that often, and a bunch of folks I had never met before. It was especially fun to be there with both of my loves, and I had a great time flitting around the room. I was a little disappointed that I wasn't able to organize cookie baking like last year, but a couple friends brought cookies that were awesome! All in all, a great way to end the work week.
10) that I know myself.
We had our holiday concert last night for San Diego Women's Chorus. I'm the secretary of the board, and my term is over at the end of the year. I love the chorus, and the community of women, and I need a break. I loved being a part of Sister Singer's in 2006. In fact, its the main reason I initially joined the chorus. I'm sad that I will miss Sister Singer's in Chicago next year, but I need to put some time and effort into developing my vocal ability. I intend to go back to the La Jolla Symphony Chorus (assuming I can get back in), and will be looking for a voice teacher. My goal is to audition for the San Diego Opera Chorus, or perhaps San Diego Light Opera. I'm nervous and excited to commit to this goal. I put together a tape in 2003 and was not invited for an audition. Eeek!
