Brian's New Meme

What was I doing 10 years ago?
*Teaching high school choral music full time; leading music ministry half-time at my current parish. Composing music. Completing my last effort at staying physically fit which ultimately failed due to taking my first cruise ship vacation!


Five things on my "to-do" list today
*Teach 8th grade Bell Choir/7th grade Choir/ four other grades music classes.
*Prepare/score study music for schola rehearsal: Vivaldi’s CUM SANCTO SPIRITU; Victoria VENI CREATOR SPIRITUS; Tallis O LORD, GIVE THY HOLY SPIRIT.
*Compose “Music/Liturgy Report” for monthly staff meeting held at 4pm.
*Finalize repertoire choices for 3 Easter.
*Watch one of the blondes get booted from American Idol, and hopefully a new episode of Criminal Minds.


Snacks I enjoy
*Bruschetta with either jalapeno jack cheese, or even margarine.
*Triscuits
*Salted mixed nuts or mixed nut/fruit trail mix


Things I would do if I were a billionaire
*Found a conservatory and elementary/secondary church school for liturgy and sacred music education, with scholarships and satellite campuses nationwide.
*Buy my wife all the clothes she ever wants for putting up with my fat *ss.


Three of my bad habits
*Quick temper
*I interrupt people when they’re talking
*Failure to eliminate the use of Anglo Saxon expletives from daily vocabulary.


Five places I have lived
*Visalia, California (native, and back here for good)
*Oakland, California (adopted hometown, love it, miss it.)
*Concord, California
*Rodeo, California
*Richmond, CaliforniaFive jobs I've had*Library clerk
*Shipping and Receiving
*Sporting Goods/Automotive Parts Retail Manager
*Teacher at all levels, primary to collegiate
*Professional Church Musician/Composer


Now, if you've read this, you're supposed to tag five other people to post their responses in public.
Cheers,
Charles
