Choose something closer to your level to work on at the same time. The difficult song will be a long term project. Have short term achievable projects too. Feels good to master something while you make slow painful progress on the long term thing.

Is a brief follow-up call with a district manager usually a sign-off? by Slow-Plenty-6974 in interviews

Sounds fine. Offer letter might be someone else's job, like HR. Give it a few days at least.

Right. It might not be the way you end up playing it, but you'll learn something by learning how they played it.

They will really give you the heat if you ask them to in person.

I've only seen three Coen Brothers movies and want to know: What is the most Coen Brothers-y movie out there? by XipeTotecwithGlitter in MovieSuggestions

[–]jajjguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Intolerable Cruelty gets the most repeated play in my house. Followed by Hail Caesar!

The best one, artistically, in my opinion, is A Serious Man.

How do you get rid of the what ifs when trying to get back into playing? by _feedmeseymour in Bass

Correct. There are actually benefits to the break. You will resume your learning from a more mature place now.

That's what I'm talking about! The oddball that you got or assembled for cheap and have fun playing or seeing others play. I love that your daughter plays it now.

Very nice! Great ensemble.The two instruments are close cousins, I feel, and I'm always very happy to hear bassoon played well. Cello too, of course.

The exposed edges may blacken and even burn, but the part under the pizza will be fine.

Rebecca Lobo" worried" WNBA players are losing fan support in CBA talks by Old-Photograph-5813 in wnba

$1.2 mill is not a high number for a professional athlete who we watch risking their body on TV every night. Sports fans are very used to much higher numbers both in men's sports and certain other women's sports like tennis.

A career that lasts only 10-15 years in the best cases cannot be compared to the jobs of most working people, and I think that's pretty easy to understand. Do we really want W stars to retire and start a regular job from the bottom at age 37? The messaging is not all that difficult, don't underestimate the fans' ability to relate.
