The shredded carrots are shaped like little music notes

I apologize to all of you who stopped by expecting to see a Manic Monday post last night. Mine wasn't ready in time because I was working on my newest music composition.
I finally finished it!
Yes!
It's 173 measures long, three movements, and takes six minutes to play.
The conductor's score is 28 pages long.

We may be able to rehearse it on Tuesday, if Bob (the director) likes it.

I just finished printing everything out, and I put a copy of the audio file onto a CD.
It is now almost three in the morning, and I have to get up for work in about five hours.
Thus my brain feels like shredded carrots.
Or maybe crushed pretzels.

I'm going to bed for a few hours so I can resemble something human tomorrow.

The Manic Monday theme is "cloud," so maybe my brain feels like a big cloudlike lump of cotton.
It's hard to see in there.

Perhaps it's a salad symphony? Good for the ears and the stomach!

Gwenhwyfar: If only I could upload it! I tried e-mailing it to someone and my stupid dial-up connection choked to death. !@#$%&*!

Trukindog: Bob DID like it! Yay! I played the CD for him this evening and he liked it!

Anonymous: Salad symphonies are good with vinaigrette!

Travis: What a great idea!

Well damn it all to hell...

Gwen: I know! It's frustrating. Today I tried compressing it into a zip file and sending THAT. My dial-up couldn't even handle the zip file. Very sad.

I wanna hear it too. If you need help, let me know. You have my address so if you want to send me a CD, I can digitize it and upload it somewhere. I could put it on iTunes for you and I'd pay money!

Janna said...

Whall: That's a thought! I dunno about the iTunes thing, but you could at least upload it someplace where my readers could listen to it.
Hmmmm....
