This is the voice

Today I started training myself on Javascript via codeacademy.com, and I am so excited to find that I'm loving it. The thrill I get as I work through strings and variables reminds me of the pleasure I got from identifying the prepositional phrases and subjects of sentences in fifth grade. It's totally nerdy, but I can already tell it's something that naturally clicks with me.

After watching a couple hours of The Voice, I've also decided that I want to give this pie-in-the-sky singing dream a real shot. The painful shyness and stage fright of my teen years no longer plagues me, so I think now is my time. Step one is to find a voice coach in San Francisco -- someone who can encourage and push me. No one has heard the voice I have when I'm home alone, except for my dog. It booms and bounces through the top floor of my acoustically-friendly loft, to the delight or fear of my dog, Im unsure. :)

While my social and romantic lives are on the up-and-up, my work life wavers between blase and miserable. No reason why I can't find happiness with all three at once. As my co-worker so perfectly put it, 'Why not make it a trifecta?' Cheers to that.
