I was singing foundations of decay in the showers yesterday and some girl goes “what is this horror movie shit”
I’m never singing with echo again

fucking piano hands are gonna send me straight to hell
So, we have an accompanist at choir, yeah? Swell guy, great at his job, kinda soft-spoken. Looks a little like Will Graham.
He arranged one of the songs we're doing and we ran it for the first time today, with him directing.
He kept a cheerful, pleasant tone the whole way through, but the direction was... sharp. Precise. Like, he was being nice about it but he knew exactly what he wanted and he was giving orders with no hesitation. Even down to the physicality. When he gestured us off a note, that note ended instantly.
And then I realized: sweet jesus, my brain is responding to his direction in an extremely embarrassing type of way. I heard something totally innocuous, like "Second tenors: again from 56. Staccato, please," and had to bite back a "Yes, sir."
Unfortunately, because of who I am as a person, I was also paying an awful lot of attention to his hands the whole time. He's got those elegant piano hands, and they are very expressive, which only made matters worse for me.
So, yeah. Soft-spoken accompanist turned out to possess That Tone when directing and now he's really hot.

Me as kid: I want to be a teacher!
Adults: A music teacher?
Me:Haha maybe, but I also want to be teacher for the core subjects!
Highschool me: Idk I've considered maybe being a therapist in the future?
Adults: Oh like music therapy?
Highschool me: haha, maybe I'll include some techniques of music therapy, but I'm actually more interested in traditional talk therapy.
Me now: ooo I want to learn how to sound design!
Others: Oh that will be useful for music!
Me: haha yah, absolutely will probably take music gigs, but I'm actually more intrigued on the SFX/Dialogue side of things!
Me: I think I want to do something science related, maybe physics, but honesty geology looks cool so who knows.
Teacher: You should do Acoustic physics.
Me: haha maybe, but I really am more interested in stuff like astrophysics, paleontology, or geology.
PLEEEEASE I KNOW I'M A MUSICIAN! I KNOW I'VE BEEN DOING IT AS A KID! BUT NOT EVERYTHING HAS TO GO BACK TO MY LOVE OF MUSIC. I CAN HAVE OTHER INTERESTS AND PASSIONS OUTSIDE OF MUSIC!!!!!!

I'm gonna read the Bible and start praying and possibly going back to church, I only wanna go to a UU church though because that's the only kind I ever felt safe in, and the nearest one I will have to see if the busses run there that early or if I could theoretically bike it...
I'm going to try to find a job with Sunday/Monday/Tuesday off (or at least Sun-Mon off), so I'll work Wed-Sat, and also days, possibly first shift? I want to get off nights though. We'll see. But I'd like to start going to church every Sunday like I did as a kid. I'd like to learn the prayers I rejected for so long. I feel disconnected from the Universe and maybe faith will soothe that. It can't hurt.
