(no subject)

Well, today we record.

I'm going to be making a CD for my aunt's brother-in-law's funeral which includes the following songs:

Angel -- Sarah McLachlan Karaoke CD
Amazing Grace -- No accompaniment
The Wind Beneath My Wings -- No accompaniment unless some sort of miracle happens (or I get creative with sparse yet tinkly piano).

I Will Remember You -- Sarah McLachlan Karaoke CD

I may poke through my tapes and see if I can find any other useful accompaniment. We shall see...



After we do the CD, we're going to see "Wunderland" -- one of the Fringe Festival plays --> it's at the Alumnai auditorium at U of O (in Jock Turcott)
I have no idea what it's about, but I hope it's good. That's going to be our Date Night this week. :-)




Tomorrow, my Mom and I are going out to see Strathmere as a "possible" wedding venue. I'm personally wondering if I should just cancel it because, frankly, we're not going to choose it and I feel like a liar for saying that I'd even go look.
However, maybe it'll be pretty, and that, at least, might be worth the drive.




In other news: One of Paul's friends/collegues from school is coming for dinner (and bringing a friend of hers).
I'm feeling a little annoyed about this -- not because she's coming to dinner, I want to meet her and I thought this would be a good way -- but because, according to Paul, she "doesn't need to eat the way a normal human needs to eat". That is, she doesn't necessarily (sp) need to follow the four food groups but, rather, listens to her body which tells her what she needs to be eating right now.

I realize that what I feel is being asked of me is, quite likely, not what is *actually* being asked of me. Or, maybe it is, and I'm just blowing things out of proportion because of how I think about food and food-sharing.

But still.

I *feel* like I'm being asked to build a dinner (With three "normal" humans eating it, too) around the two or three things that she feels she should be eating right now.
This on top of having already offered three different menu options (including bloody wine sellections, for Gods' sake!) from-which she could choose.

Now, is it just me, or have I already done more than I'm required, as a host, to do in order to ensure my guests' enjoyment of the meal? How many other people give their guests the choice of different home-made-from-scratch meals? Hell! It's not like I do this normally, either!


<*cough*> So, effectively, was she socialized by cocroaches? I mean, even a *goat* knows that when a stranger shares their food with you, you don't get picky about it.


Allegedly she can walk through walls. This is cool. But I don't think it gives her the right to be demanding at me. >:-/


And that's my opinion. <*grouse, grouse, grouse*>
