The Girl with the Flaxen Hair started up on my iTunes this morning and reminded me that ORCHESTRA STARTS THIS WEEK!
*dies of geeky bliss*
Musical Duh! Moment: Until a few years ago, I had no idea Blossom Dearie had done anything other than Schoolhouse Rock (she sang the song about adjectives), and here she'd been this wonderful jazz legend. Her voice and piano are dreamy. I'm having a great time listening to her stuff on YouTube - Someone To Watch Over Me and To Keep My Love Alive are my current favorites.
*dies again*
Meanwhile, the penny-counting continues. I now know there are more than thirty-one.
