I Can’t Sing!!!

I am bitter.

I hate that word, bitter — but if I am true to myself, then that is the only word that describes how I really feel about my present situation.  I feel bitter.

The dictionary describes it as:  marked by strong resentment or cynicism .  Yep, that’s pretty much me.
For weeks, I have been looking forward to performing at a benefit for a charity that works to stop domestic violence.

Well, now I can’t go.  There is a scheduling conflict at work, and so I can’t leave my station  during my usual dinner break/personal time off.  That’s just the way it is. I am trying to let go of my deep disappointment.  I need some time.

You see, I spent two Saturday afternoons in rehearsals with Bobby Moody and Moment’s Notice.  I’ve been practicing the new songs at varying times during the day for days.  I was way up there in excitement and anticipation, and now I’m pretty down.  I never got to perform with the complete band.  Only the sax player and the bass and lead guitar men.  Superb musicians.

That is part of the setback for me.  I knew taken altogether, that these guys were going to be the bomb!
This isn’t the end, however.  I have been invited to sing a set with the band during one of the  Saturday nights they’re performing at the Irregardless Cafe in Raleigh.  I will be there.. Lifted and loving every moment of the show.

Between now and then, I’ll be working on a change of attitude.
