It was a quiet week around here. Things are slowing down at work and the actual holidays are almost upon us. Also, I was still feeling the lingering effects of jet lag despite last week’s attempt to shock my system back to Eastern Standard Time.

I attempted to sing American Girl in Friday’s jam (having not practiced it at all beforehand). It was a total fail and quite embarrassing. It’s probably outside my vocal range, and we might need to play it in a different key if I’m to sing it. Thankfully, we weren’t recording, so it only lives on in the memories of those who were forced to listen to it.
