It is 8:36am on Wednesday, I am at work, and I am listening to the Current. A new song starts and I hear a piano... and i KNOW it's you. And it is. I can not tell you how excited I am for you! To hear your voice over the radio at work (the job you helped me get, by the way) was so amazing. Can't wait to see you perform soon! xoxo
Cool! I'd love to see footage of it. I'm doin' alright. Miss my hubby. :o( So sad. I'm still writing away! I have a new version of "Waterspots" up and I also have a new song up with my bro called "Floating Gently. "
