I now have them neatly in sheet protectors and in a binder so I can take a quick glance if I need to! Now tonight I'm going to time each set so I know I have enough material, and decide what order I'm going to do the songs. Then I have to put my cheat sheets in order so I can find them. (what good is having a cheat sheet if you can't find the answers when the test arrives, right?) I'm saving tomorrow night to ponder that ever elusive answer to the timeless question: "what should I wear?" Do you think one night will be enough time to find that answer???!!!!!!

Oh my gosh! SS! I just finished writing a post in that "Glee" thread about how I almost always know all the lyrics, even though I cannot sing -- except for in my dreams. Ohhhhh, I could sit in the front row and be your prompter. Darn it! I am still in Cincinnati.
A true story...
Mr. B. and I have been to Colorado and back during the past week. We drove. Aaaauuugh!!!! Sometimes I sing to Mr. Boomer while he is driving. (talk about a captive audience -- on I-70)
Anyway, yesterday we were coming through St. Louis and when we were passing by the arch, I burst into song. First, of course, it was the "St. Louie Blues" followed by "You Came a Long Way from St. Louie."
Well, Mr. B. knew the first song, but he said, "You are making that one up." -- about the second one. I said I was not.
As fortune would have it, I was in possession of my trusty laptap and so I went to You Tube and proved that I was not making that song up. I love both those songs. I want to be a torch singer. But I cannot sing and I think my slinky dress days are all behind me. (sigh) (sigh) But I remember lyrics.
Here is the link I used to convince Mr. Boomer that I did not make that song up.
