String Quartets, Gin & Tonic and baked beans on toast!

My head is full to busting!

There, it feels better already.  String Quartetes, Creative Music Technologies and weird stuff that some wouldn't call music, film and opera, classical stuff and the cold that won't go away but is just at that really horrid Alien style slime stage.....probably too much info!

I am confused - why exactly am I doing this?  A reasonably sensible woman rapidly approaching her 50's building up approx 19k of debt (which of course I will have to try to pay off before I retire!) putting mortgage and various other regular payments in jeopardy, living off  3 pounds spend a week (coffee at Uni alone is 1.60) and having the time of my life!  Sure, most of the time I haven't got a clue as to what it all means, that I panic about not knowing the theory side of the music, that I haven't got a clue how to compose, that I'm really not sure how applicable my "life experience" is to this bizzare world, but heh!  The truth is of course  I should have done this years ago, but we can say that about a lot of things and I'm doing it now - so bring it on as the journey is superb!

The G&T is on the desk and I have the next section of the string quartet to tackle - chromatic bit that will get me from A to E major......

Food at the moment is fairly basic as I don't want to spread the cold virus too far so tonight will either be sardines on toast or baked beans on said same toast - at the moment the latter is the preferred option......yummm :-) x
