Month: September 2006

By jove, I think I've done it! Organized over 10 hours of music so that it fits nicely on CDs (no one being longer than 1h19 or shorter than 1h15) and organized so that there's a nice progression from cocktail music to dinner music to fun music to chill music.

Those last few CDs are going to be fun :)

Today didn't really go according to plan. I wanted to sleep in late, work on the music for the wedding and cook at a leisurely pace for dinner tonight. Instead, I had to wake up earlier than expected to go with Katy while she got various bits and bobs waxed, then go into town while she got her haircut (for 4 hours!!!) and then get dinner done (though that, at least, went according to plan and was quite nice).

Right now, I'm hiding away upstairs while Katy is getting merrily blotto with Anna, Rho and Rita on her hen night. I hope they have fun. I, in the meantime, will take this time to catch up on my book and just relax in a bit of peace and quiet. Sounds like a plan.
