(no subject)

I mistyped TurboTax as TurbotTax, and then started wondering if that's what you use if you own a fish farm, or if that's the service that lets you pay your taxes in fish (You owe half a swordfish and fifteen smelts!). I'm not sure how it would deal with refunds, though.

Found it!

It seems that not having voice lessons for three weeks due to the holidays and the Insidious Grue was a really excellent thing, because when I started in again, a light bulb went on for my teacher and she told me what my main problem was, and a light bulb went on for me when she told me, and I fixed it. Now my tone has changed, and I've got all sorts of upper register I didn't have reliably before (what do you MEAN that was an A flat?), AND I can sing all sorts of phrases in one breath that I used to have to break in the middle. Eureka! Lessons are actually fun again!

Now if the rest of the world wanted to be fun again, that would be nice. Work isn't awful, but it's work, and it seems to take me longer to decompress from it lately. I'm not sure why that is. It may be something as simple as the fact that it's cold in that suite and I don't warm up again until after I've come home and eaten something hot for dinner. And since it's so cold out, I don't want to go out and do much of anything on weekends, so I get stuck in a rut and then it's Monday again and I have to go back to work.

Maybe I'll do something silly when (and if) it warms up later this week. I have no idea what the definition of "silly" is in this particular instance; I guess I'll find out when I get there.
