first things first

I'm as green as can be. So forgive me! I decided to take up this blogging-phenomenon upon reading some of my friends' blogs (thanks Michelle!), in hopes that I might be able to keep a current journal - as public as it is. So here I go.
Today was fantastically lazy and less-productive than I'd originally hoped, but turned out to be just what I needed. I am constantly plagued with the cold - so taking today to relax and get some school work done really seemed to help. Maybe it's only in my mind.

I had the amazing priviledge Yesterday of singing for an album in a recording studio! A very new experience for me, though I thought I adjusted quite well to the set-up and format within the studio. The artist I am singing back-up for is Phillip Simms - or Philly 5 - a fantastic R+B artist who I just had the pleasure of meeting last month. Him and his wife Stacey were introduced to Dave and I at a dinner party for a mutual friend's birthday, and the next time we saw them the album came out - along with my singing - and wham! there I am in the studio two days later. Crazy how God works. I am back to record some more and learn more about the album in the next couple of days. Phil has a concert at Joe's Place on Saturday night so I will be joining them for that as well! This is all very encouraging and exciting for me. I haven't had the opportunity to sing anywhere since the summer time, and I am really thankful for this.

Dave and Wrigley are sitting here on the couch beside me. Life is good.
Thank you for reading my blog, I will try and be consistent with this!
