As poor Mike can attest to, when I get done with just about anything that I'm passionate about, I tend to call him on the drive home and babble on and on about how fantastic it was. It's like my own little personal version of drugs... go out and do something I love, then come home on a "high".
Tonight is no exception. You see, tomorrow is the Sacramento Choral Society's two Christmas shows for the year, so tonight was the dress rehearsal. After a long three and a half hours of singing, here I am at 11:30pm... nowhere near tired. Tomorrow is going to be another long day, so I know I should be sleeping now, but I just plain don't feel like laying down yet. While rehearsal wasn't that great (you know what they say - bad rehearsal, great show), it still got me all excited for tomorrow!
I do have to say, it's going to be a wonderful show. Christmas is one of my favorites. It's generally much easier music than we normally do, but it really connects with the audience. The audience sing-a-long is one of my favorite parts... it's so cool to stand on stage and have a thousand people singing right back at you. People just look happy when they're at the Christmas show! If you're interested in coming, there are two shows, one at 2pm and the other at 8pm. We're singing at the UC Davis Mondavi Center and you can buy your ticket at the box office!
I'm off to try to get some sleep!
