Not a heck of alot going on....

"It's the economy, stupid."

That must be it. No gigs, no shows, no plans. Everyone's feeling it right now. I'm taking the time to get "re-charged". I was so busy in the months of August and September, working a full-time job and singing all over the place. I think I'm going to start writing again.

And, to tell you the truth, I'm rather thankful that I even HAVE a job right now.

Other than that, I've been continuing with my Russian language classes. I hated to lose everything I learned this year, so I decided to continue. I am now officially an "intermediate level" student at the Beverly Hills Lingual Institute! (drum roll, please...)

Being a singer really helps, beleive it or not, because I've trained my ear over the years to duplicate sounds. My teacher says my accent is "perfect" - can you believe that? She asked me if I had Russian blood somewhere in my past.

That's about it in a nutshell. I hadn't posted in a while, so I thought I'd throw something up here.

I hope I have more interesting things to relay, later!

Russian! wonderful! my son is teaching himself the language too! Maybe you can write a Russian love song.

I was thinking of you the other day when I was watching a soap opera (General hospital) and all the gals were dressed up for a wedding. I think Soaps are great places to find things to "copy" for special occasions.

take care! keep singing!
