You have to warn us when you post things like that. I got to that last comma and I stopped dead in my tracks, laughing. I imagined you sitting in the empty office in your undies singing...odd indeed! Hehe...jeshiha...at work, singing in her underwear...hehe

^^Bagsforfun: yes, I am a singer, and I know that I'm lucky! But growing up in a musical family, I never thought it was unusual--my sister has it, too. Perfect pitch definitely comes in handy, especially for sight-reading music during auditions and first-read rehearsals.
