'Tis the Season

It's after Thanksgiving! do you know what this means? Over half the holiday sandwich is gone! Because as Julia so eloquently put it, Thanksgiving is just a holiday sandwich thrown in between Halloween and Christmas to pass the time. But now we're into the best part of it. The Christmas season! Huzzah! Or, as it's called by those in chorale, "the chorale season." There's a good reason for this. We have 27 performances in 16 days, starting on December 2. Hopefully I'll kick this cold by then, because that much singing with a sore throat would be a torture that should only exist in the 7th circle of Hell. (the 7th circle is the one that's supposed to be the worst, right?) Anyways, the point is, I'll be super busy. If I seem to drop off the face of the earth, just think of me out gallivanting around, singing to elementary schools and nursing homes. And lots of other people. I'm like that guy in the song, who wishes a Merry Christmas to "kids from 1 to 92"! Except more like to kids from 5 to 94. It'll be a party. Anyways, speaking of chorale, I should go learn my songs.
