What I've been up to these days....

My first official day of student teaching was last Friday, although I had been at the high school for almost two weeks already assisting with music rehearsals and marching fundamentals during the preseason camp.

I will be assisting with the marching band, a sixth-grade band at one of the elementaries, the seventh-grade top band, and one of the after-school jazz bands. I've already had a great time so far running rehearsals and sectionals. The band program is really good for the area, and this will be an excellent opportunity for me.

I apologize to everyone for not phoning in during T-Fest, since it was something that I had wanted to do, but it slipped my mind as my wife and I undertook giving the basement a really good cleaning and painting. Not an excuse, just the reason.

So anyway, I hope that everyone who was able to attend had an excellent time. I was there in spirit!!!

Those Fundamentalists are always marching, it's why we Democrats are afraid of them!

It's also probably why they score better in that category than you guys do at competitions.
