WHY IS IT ... that you make a decision to persue something, based on the amount of time you have ... ONLY TO FIND, that you can't figure out where all the time went that you were going to use for "it"? CHEEESE .... we had this foursome, ya know? and we happen to congregate toward each other at gatherings. we tend to room together for outings. we laugh a LOT. we joke a LOT. hmm ... maybe we should sing a LOT too???!? SO- we sing a few chords, muddle through a song or two. Hey, we don't suck! Next thing you know, we're singing in a show. Well, that wasn't too hard. Let's compete?!! (let's register, let's decide on a name, let's learn a song .. or two). AND IN THE MEANTIME .... let's sign up with 4 others and perform in the novice double quartet contest! Cuz, gee, it's only one song and we have a few weeks before we all need to know it. Besides, we're just gonna wear pajamas, so it'll be easy right? No big deal. AND the biggest plus .. we'll get to see more of each other and we'll be working on our own songs too. (right?) Oh yeah, we gotta pick out some songs! That shouldn't take long.. a few learning tracks to listen to, some rights to pay for .... ask advice here & there, repeat as many times as necessary. Vacation? oh yeah we had one ... each of us, separately. BUT- there's lotsa time to decide on songs (NOT). 
did someone send out a "wear purple" memo??
The Christmas show will be here before we know it ... so we need to run thru those songs sometimes ... uh oh ... Lainey is going to Hawaii ... no Qteting for a bit (so Lo & C & me will wing it with a few others while she's away) BUT, we'll really buckle down right after the holidays! FOR SURE !!! 
next thing you know .......... (insert sinister music here) We are only weeks from contest! We do have 2 songs chosen. We have a "few" clothing options. We are pretty much off paper. Can you say OMG ??
BUTTTTTTT we're still laughing ... a LOT
