<p>OK, it's decision time. It's obvious that the amount of
activities I've had lately came with consequences. I'm hardly at
home before late most of the week days, I've a hard time making
time to be with Eva, let alone take care of my own home. It's just
too damn much, and generally deteriorating.</p>
<p>So, I've decided to take a break from the <a href=
"http://www.rmk.org/" title="choir">choir</a>. Yes, I know, I was
all excited a year ago, but the way things look right now, it's a
luxuary I can't uphold anymore, if I want to stay healthy.</p>
<p>I'm also going to cut down on the time I spend at <a href=
"http://www.stacken.kth.se/" title="Stacken">Stacken</a> unless I
can find a way to stay in focus with <a href=
"http://www.netcrypto.org/common/">the</a> <a href=
"http://ctwm.free.lp.se/">stuff</a> I <a href=
"http://www.venge.net/monotone/">work</a> <a href=
"http://www.openssl.org/">on</a>. I could, for example, only appear
every second week...</p>
Started singing again...http://journal.richard.levitte.org/entries/2004-04-22-01-44/2008-07-06T23:21:28Z2004-04-22T01:44:00Z
<p>I've taken up singing in a choir again! I've been thinking about
going back to my old (1991-1996) choir for a year, but didn't dare
because of the way I left it in '96 (I sneaked out within saying a
word to anyone).</p>
<p>Last saturday became a turning point. I was invited to the party
that was thrown for the choir's leader (still the same), and while
we were all singing for him, I felt a great pull, a few tears fell
and I felt another part of me had found home again. A sweet, sweet
moment. A couple of hours later, I asked the leader if there was a
need for a tenor (a silly question, really. There's <em>always</em>
a need for more tenors), and said that I'm 90% sure I want to start
again.</p>
<p>So, after thinking about it for a few more days, I went to
today's rehearsal (actually, yesterday's at this time of writing).
I found myself at home immediately. This is good. I haven't been
singing at all for 8 years, and it feels real good to be back.</p>
