So the Slow Kids shows are done. Yay. I didn't throw up ... I didn't mess up so much that they decided I couldn't be their friend anymore and they hated me (or at least not so much that the decided these things and told me) ... I actually had friends come to see me (YAY!). I wanted to prance about. I thought that the people who talked to me after the show (Wandering Minds people and Bethy and Mary Anne) were the only ones I knew who came, but as it turns out John Grace came, as did Aaron from work .... Kelly and Crysta the violinists and their harpist friend ... Dave and Leah ... Brian from downstairs ... it was so happy! PLUS, Brianna gave me flowers! That was awesome!

The party was an interesting experience. I am so bad at being social. It's no good. I did, however, get some adorable little pictures developed.

I saw Sharan today, which was marvelous, as always. She always makes me feel like I need to work so much harder though. She'll say good things about me, and all the potential I have. I do not think I am going to be able to perform like she does. I love to play, but in comparison to me, her technique is just ... man. i wanted to come home and just practice for 17 hours and be stinkin' incredible. I can not decide if it is a good thing or a bad thing that I just want to practice all the time now. I start doing something and just think about one of two things (a) when the next time I get to practice is and (b) when I get to take a nap.

Since I'm fairly incoherent right now I am going to stop typing. Hey, you try sleeping a total of 10 hours in three nights and being clever and adorable. It's tough work.
