Dawn's Digression.

I get bored when Jennifer is out of the office.
I was in such a great mood last night. Guess what happened.. Go ahead guess. Don't you hate it when you ask someone to guess and they don't? :) Or is that just me being weird?
The band got a silver Bach trumpet donated and they asked if I wanted to use it. It's beat up and it needs work. You may wonder how this is exciting. It is exciting because I have wanted a silver Bach since I was 15. That was always my deal. I wanted a 'brand new silver Bach'. Well, this is by no means new. Or even pretty. Right now. But I'm thrilled because it is something I've always wanted and it fell right in my lap. *poof* There it was. Just like that. The band is going to pay for the repairs. I think I will get it relaquered (sp?) myself. This means I don't have to rent the trumpet from Brook Mays anymore, which is $37 a month. :-D So, I can use some of my savings there to pay to get her all fixed up. And I can use it as long as I play with them. And if I'm not playing with them, I probably don't need it anyway, dig? :-D
Yesterday's blah turned into glee as I balanced the checkbook. I was so happy I cried. Five days after payday and I still have money in the bank. I have been struggling with my finances for well over a year now. It was my income tax refund that did it. I didn't spend it like I was supposed to, but I honestly don't give a crap. The peace of mind I have now is worth it taking another month to pay off Rachel.
I'm eating sweet potato pie. I've never had it before. It's not gross. Hmm. I thought it would be.
I was wrong about the song Become You. I really like it. I'm stuck on Yield and Bitterroot. I need to buy another Michelle Malone CD. I'm behind. And I like to order from her because she always signs stuff. Did I tell you I'm a field rep for Michelle now? Like when she comes to town I'll get to pass out fliers and cool things like that. Very cool. Might even get promo CDs and stuff. Rock on, sisterfriend. :)
