Yeah, I loved it. Oboe is awesome, too. I'm a musically gifted sort, I never had to practice. I remember getting second chair at an All Region function...the first chair bassoon player practiced two hours a day. I practicaly sight-read the tryout music, haha.
I miss playing

That's kind of what I'm like. But I went to college and was forced to study music theory and took lessons from this horrible woman (I made her cry once, highlight of my higher education.) and was made to practice 30 hrs a week mandatory and had rehearsals nearly every night of the week and got carpal tunnel and nearly failed out of school because I wasn't allowed to play and that whole experience sort of killed my desire to play anymore. I still do occasionally, and I'm still quite good, but nowhere near where I used to be.

Heh. Add to that the recent joy of re-entry into the wonders of working the night shift, and you can well imagine the new vampiric/gothic me. Tasty pulsing jugulars: that's where it's at, lol!

Yep, I can see that a trek through 100 degree temps with 99% humidity, along with clouds of tsetse flies and herds of voracious carniverous predators is more fascinating than a langorous vacation on a tropical beach. Sigh. Will I ever get it right? Hey, you two, be kind enough to send some postcards, eh?

Cozen: you are a child of the night, I look like the undead. We can't win for trying, can we?
Now, hey! I didn't know I had OPTIONS! How was I supposed to know?
You are such a tease!

Hm. Is this the same as "crossing the streams"?

All right then, cook up something tasty for us to try... and please no Georgian cheese.
Now was that in this thread or t'other? (too many threads... can't see straight... feeling dizzy... get me a twizzler - damn! wrong thread again!)
Ask Dr. Science ... he knows more than you do.

I could make my chocolate cake. Always seems to a safe choice when it comes to potlucks.

Ah, now here is a conundrum, you have no idea what I look like.
Hm. Endangered animal menu. Interesting concept. Of course, the restaurant's own popularity would be it's undoing.
Taking some steps in the right direction, though. I signed up for cooking classes.
Hopefully I will not accidently sever any digits or inadvertantly start my own pyrotechnics company.

As long as it's not made with endangered cocoa beans!
