Well.. I did it. I made it to the audition after being determined to skip it. I went later in the day, had the lyrics printed out, cajoled my daughter to lend me her Nano and upload the song so I could practice.
Well.. Well.. Well...
I saw my friend, my partner in crime when it comes to auditioning for shows. She was ahead of me. I fidgeted alternately rereading the lyrics and reviewing lines they wanted us to read. When it came time I went on stage, hearing how loud my kitten heels echoed as I walked. The director cued up the music he had and I started singing, doing pretty well, getting into the lyrics. Imagine my surprise when I discovered the CD I used was absolutely different than the one the director had. His version was a LOT slower. However, that did not slow down MY adrenaline. I just tried my best and had a blast as I warbled, gargled, trembled on stage. I kinda felt like a bowl of jello filled with cooked spaghetti.. but it was great.
