WTF
ok, so every wednesday night for a couple weeks now i’ve gone to karaoke at the club car. tonight was no exception. there’s a $25 prize which i never win despite always giving 110%, and again tonight was no exception. my song was “crying” by roy orbison. it’s starting to kind of bum me out that i never win, but the truth is that there’s always someone there with serious pipes that does a complete barn-burning face-shoot-offer like tonight’s “white rabbit” or last week’s “magic man”, with which i simply cannot compete. also, i just have to come to terms with the fact that maybe my style of karaoke (”inspiration over technical perfection”) doesn’t sit well with the judges (except the DJ, who is an angel, and moreover, loves me). i enjoy singing karaoke, i will continue singing karaoke, and if i never win the contest, well, that just means i’ll get to keep entering the contest. although tomorrow i’m getting $75 (and dinner) for participation in a survey about health care, and all night at the bar i kept thinking about how great it would be if i won the prize and had a $100 week. sigh… always the bridesmaid…
