December is the month in which my ward goes crazy with musical activities.

Bishopric: cahn, would you like to be in charge of the ward musical fireside [evening event] again like you were last year?
Me: NO. Thank you.
Bishopric: Um, okay, thanks for being honest with us!
Me: You're welcome! :D

Things I have done in the last two weeks:
-Figured out how to play a cello part on viola without embarrassing myself (did not take too long)
-Helped E figure out how to play a viola part with quartet, choir, and conductor without embarrassing herself (E would tell you this took Much Too Long)
-Planned out Christmas Sunday morning music (on one hand, this was not hard as the choir director did most of it; on the other, people keep helpfully asking if they can be in the program and I am like... this would have been MUCH MORE HELPFUL a month ago)
-Planned out instrumental number for fireside (this took way longer than I feel it should have)
-Fielded fireside drama regarding instrumental number (much milder than previous fireside drama, thankfully)
-Did NOT play with choir in additional church (stake) Christmas thing last night, nor did E (which I thought we were going to have to do), for which we are all grateful, not least the audience
-Wrote 3/4 of a Yuletide fic (I am a little worried this is a Zeno's fic, though... I keep thinking it is going to be done and then I am like oh crap I have to Fix The Thing, and the Things To Fix keep Happening, so I don't even have a complete bus draft yet)

Things I need to do in the next two weeks:
-Learn a piano part
-Rehearse with the singers for whom I'm playing piano
-Rehearse choir number with E at a tempo that it turns out is way way faster than we were taking it, after having worked with E for two weeks to slow it down
-Rehearse the instrumentalists for fireside
-Possibly rewrite a cello part into treble clef for one of them
-Possibly figure out rehearsal time for (another) singing number
-Write the rest of my yuletide draft and beg for beta help
-Start writing a fic treat

why do I do this to myself
because it's fun
it will be more fun once it's done
