Up Close and Personal

I tried my best not to seem distracted this week, but the truth is, I was busy preparing for my first non-theatre/non-classical/non-children's music (that's a lot of non's!) performance ever. My audience was a little different than what I'm used to on a daily basis...in fact, since I performed in a bar, my students wouldn't have even been allowed to attend :)

Because music is such a huge part of my job, it's easy to forget that it is also a personal hobby and something that I've done for fun almost all my life. I've been spending a lot of time writing and playing for myself lately, so having the opportunity to perform in front of an audience was a big thrill. Here is one of my original songs, "Second Chance Dance," which I wrote for my husband last Valentine's Day (and is based on the story of us):
