i might

i'm crossing my legs hard because i might crap my pants. {gross, sure.}

PATTY GRIFFIN HAS A NEW CD!!! and i might say this with tears in my eyes {not kidding.} and a shreaking voice...she's coming to salt lake. in concert. in kingsbury hall. on a TUESDAY!!!

why.

why am i still in school? why can't i be there? is this fate? .... i might be sick.

i'm sure you're thinking - why in the world does this matter so much, she's just a random, weird bluegrass singer. but i don't think you understand. patty is my singer. if i could only sing like patty. if i could write like patty. if i could play the strings like patty.

i . would . be . awesome .

she is incredible. so outstandingly talented. i love her voice. she calms me - helps me remember who i am - brings me back to earth while reminding me how sweet the earth can be. i lovest her ever so dearly.

next to my husband of course.

enjoy some of her  - my two favorite songs (so far - but have been for a long time.)

up over the mountain

and

heavenly day

yes, i would like her guitar strap...in case you're wondering. and when i'm done with school - here's a little secret...i'm playing the guitar more. singing a lot more. and possibly picking up the violin and harmonica. banjo eventually.

judge me.

*another secret of mine. one time, i had this roommate...we didn't get along so hot. i sang in the shower a lot. she sang in the choir a lot. she told me she couldn't tell the difference between patty's voice and mine when i was doing what i do best. singing in the shower. thank you roommate who is weird...you made my lifetime. even if you thought her voice was crap.
