Law  

When I decided that public school teaching wasn’t my bag, I planned to become a paralegal, but everyone convinced me I was too smart and that I should go to law school. I passed the LSAT and got admitted to law school. I went one whole semester before being truthful to myself and admitted that I didn’t want to be there.

You made a great choice. There are some who absolutely love the practice of law, but from my personal observation there are not many of them. It is an industry filled with bright people who’d much prefer to be doing something else…

Maybe once I retire from this gig (I am eligible in about 7 years), I might dabble in paralegal studies/work. Or I may become a travel agent.

Tomorrow my old house is, if everything goes to plan, finally sold and handed over to the new owners. Bizarrely I lived there for around 33 1/3 years. 

Also on the 8th December John was murdered (1980) and my father was diagnosed with cancer (2014). What a fabulous date.

Glad the house is getting sold so you won’t have to deal with it anymore, mmm. Sorry the date is so heavy for you. Let us know if we can carry some of that weight for you.

On a brighter note, the reason I’ve been offline for a couple of days is I’m on a band tour, and can’t get any reception. Still, the chance to play music makes me very happy. That’s my excitement for the month!

I play the French Horn. I chose it because it is rather unusual!

Last night, as part of the tour, we got to see a moving rendition of Handel’s Messiah. I’m very privileged….

Speaking of Messiah, i’ve got to sing “But Who May Abide The Day Of His Coming?” in about a week. Its the third year that i’ve had a solo.

You’re kidding me, you haven’t heard the French Horn solo inbetween the 1st verse and chorus of Sgt. Pepper .

There’s a lot of bits I missed on that album, having heard it since I was a tot and taking things for granted. I’ll revisit it…

I don’t know the Sgt. Pepper ‘s solo by heart, but I can play it very well with music in front of me. 

I wasn’t aware of a solo in For No One … I need to listen to it again (how terrible!)

I don’t read sheet music. I’ve been playing guitar since 1973 and I prefer to learn by ear, although I occasionally will watch things such as Beatles To A Tee to get the right chord positions and such.
