Self-reflection: Conversations with myself

one sounds pretty good already.
LOVE the crescendos and then the way they decline to a faint whisper.
It's almost as if-
Hold on a minute...hmmmm...what do we have here?
This definitely could be interesting...
Second chair flute flirting with first chair flute.
And she's almost completely ingnoring him!
Just being staunchly civil.
Gosh, take a clue dude...Nope, he's completely unaware, or perhaps unconcerned that he's making a fool out of himself.


-Or is he?
Was that a glimmer of interest in her eyes?
Hmmm....well, even if it was just the flattery kicking in, there's definitely something.
Gosh, they would make an odd couple.
She's tall and not skinny by any means. Probably at least a 16, perhaps bigger.
But she carries her weight well AND knows her fashion...You go, girl!
But she can do better than him.
Oh, he seems nice enough, but look at that hair!?
Who parts their hair in the middle anymore?
And not only is he shorter than her, but scrawny and stands with a slight hunch.
Not like he's obvious or anything...just right out stares...

Talk about staring-what's up with that girl?...
Hmmmm....how funny...
Let's see...
First flute flirted with by Second Flute to no avail,
but Fourth flute longs to be the focus of Second Flute's flirting!
Ohhh, I crack myself up sometimes!

Okay, back to the music. That's why I'm here...it's been too long since I listened to some great live music...
Final composition...traditional Christmas song.
I love Christmas songs.
There's just something about the feelings they stir...

Oh, now here's a piece of work...
Miss Thang...
One of those girls you almost hated in High School.
Tall, perfect hair, perfect body,
...It's a good thing I'm past that juvenile stage of envy and jealousy...
-HOW on earth can ANYONE have a shape that perfect?
God decided to bless me with the gift of shortness.
Oh, AND this lovely ghetto booty.
Ohhhh, what's the use?
Be content, right?
...Well, I guess over the years I've grown somewhat fond of my "curvy" self...
and, if nothing more, I've learned how to minimize it.
Yeah, I can almost make it look proportional anymore.

It's over? But...but...
I didn't get to really focus and listen like I wanted to.
Well, guess I'll have to get the CD and pretend I'm here...

What was that?
Oh, a choir concert next Tuesday?
Yes, I'll definitely have to mark that on my calendar.
Nothing beats a night of pure music appreciation.
