Do we have a thread for mortifyingly embarrassing thoughts or comments?
So this morning I was driving in to work, newest Red Priest CD on the player. On comes one of the later tracks that I haven't heard yet. Hmm, I recognise this...oh, yes, I know, it's what the string quartet are playing at the party at Nakatomi Towers in the first Die Hard film. Didn't realise that was Bach...[the CD is all Bach]. Stop when I get to work, pick up case, identify the track I have been listening to. Brandenburg Concerto No 3. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blush.gif) oooooops (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blush.gif) I can't help but think I should have known this as what it was, rather than 'the bit from Die Hard' (hey, but I did know that Ode to Joy in the film was Ode to Joy!) |

QUOTE(Solari @ Nov 19 2009, 05:17 PM)  QUOTE(TSax @ Nov 19 2009, 05:01 PM) I just eat the seeds as well... I remember being terrified of having a tree growing inside me when I was a nipper (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I saw a video on You tube about a man who complained of chest pains and down the line when they operated or did an MRI, they found a pine spore(?) or seed growing in his lungs! Arggh. I don't know how true this is. So the moral of this story is don't eat seeds unless you want a grape vine growing inside you. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

That sounds like a shaggy dog story. An urban myth. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Today I found out that at the theory classes at school we're expected to do grade 5 in March. Nobody said anything about any exams.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)
I'm off to add theory books to my birthday list (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) |

Today my car is being repaired so I'm stuck at home.
Because I live in the middle of nowhere (7 miles from the village) the only place I can go is up to the woods with the dogs. This may not seem drastic for 24hours but it's amazing how nervous I feel not being able to get anywhere! All the 'what ifs' are worrying.. like the dog needing the vet, my parents needing me, a sudden overpowering need to go the supermarket/bank/post-office, etc etc etc. It's a good excuse to do some housework and some studying... although I have a strong suspicion I'll be taking my violin out of it's case.....

I must stop sitting cross-legged on chairs. It gives me pins and needles, yet I still insist on doing it...

Isn't sitting like that entirely uncomfortable? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Now then BC - most singing teachers will tell you not to sing with your legs crossed, so next time you sit on a chair, break into song, uncross your legs and remember my dire warning! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sing.gif)

I am always told to sit up straight in my chair without crossed legs by staff at my ochestras.
The same goes for you, no crossed legs and sit up straight. |

I can sit for hours scrunched up in the corner of the settee with my legs crossed under me. mind you I have never been a good singer...perhaps thats why. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
Maybe we should call you "Bendy Barry" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |
