Happy St.Patrick's Day!!!
1 Ever have one of those days that just soars, and lifts your spirits? And you don't really even know why it did that? You just realize you can fly once again?
2 Yesterday was one such day.
3 After having written a rather sad DN on Wednesday night, or really, on Thursday morning, I finally had gotten to bed at 4:10 a.m.
4 When the alarm went off yesterday, I wanted to shoot my neighbor's cow.
5 But I dragged my ass out of bed, and got to school on time, and just toughened up, got in there, and gave it my all. Everything just went right.
6 I can't really pinpoint what made it all work. I guess it really started to turn around sixth period, when not only was my class quiet and listening, but who applauded me at the end of my lesson.
7 If you've been following, you know the triumph of that moment. For whatever reason, they allowed me to break Romeo and Juliet down, and to fine-tune that grand work of art.
8 This followed with a rehearsal in which we tackled a very tough song, Sunrise/Sunset from Fiddler. What a beautiful piece of music. At first, the kids sounded pretty scratchy, but after a few hours, it began really to have some feeling. Then Rocha walked in and gave us a brand new mic! Everything improved!
9 I had other things go on that were just so fun and wonderful, phone calls, e-mails, visits, and this entire feeling of miracles in the making. Tacit triumphs for lots of people!
10 It's like it all fell into place.
11 I guess you have days.
12 To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose, under heaven. That one goes out to my venerable and incredble first band ever, The Ducks.
13 Anybody got a twelve-string? = )
14 Just a great day; I am amazed, and know not what to say.
15 I guess, just enjoy your weekend.
16 I had a tough week, but I've won the battle
they've yet to fight.
17 And being a winner, God give you good-night.
18 Peace.
