Oh How Embarrassing!!!

     
Called to Serve?

So here I am this morning sitting at my desk working on getting one of our out-dated applications retired.  Not a complex job, so I decided to listen to one of the podcasts that I have on my iPhone.  It's Michael Moody, and during the course of the interview there is a recording of the Tabernacle Choir singing Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing inserted.  So, I get all caught up in the music and start to hum along with it and then to sing softly along.  That is followed by a bit more interview and an insert of Called To Serve also performed by the Choir.  This time I'm totally caught up and begin to sing along, not just softly but fairly loudly in my very pitiful voice.  With earplugs in place, I'm not aware that I'm sharing my efforts with all those around me until I turn around in my chair and see about a dozen people standing outside my cube.  Oh, color my face red.  If only I had a decent voice I would NOT have been at all embarrassed.  Hmm.  Oh well, they can just live with it!!!

I think you have a fine voice. The fact that you would sing amidst a bunch of cubicles would be the embarrassing part. But who can fault anyone singing a happy song?

HA!
You are funny now that you are old and sick!

I love that you grew an audience and can't blame you for getting caught up in either song.
