"The Multiple Intelligences Test" thing seems to be more a "multiple activities confidence test" thing.

I'm apparently not all that confident (except in music -- (Li9,Lo-M:8,S:3,BK6,M12,Inter:7,Intra:2).

In other news, I've sorta caught up on A&E commenting, have read the new Mckillip (really good, though not, I think, as good as _Serre_), and the latest Hobb (does a nice job of wrapping up the 6 book novel about FitzChivalry).

On a filkish nature, I've noticed that my preferred repetoire seems to shift faster than I can either memorize songs or write new ones, which leaves me with less to sing at a filksing than I'd like. So, frex, I've mostly stopped doing a lot of my Tom Smith repetoire, for one reason or another, and don't do a lot of the Heather Alexander stuff as much either.

Which does mean I need to find (or write, but I've never learned to write them) some more pretty fantasy ballads that fit my dramatic/vocal range.

Time to start carrying your songbook around with you.

Btw, you have a lovely voice. You need to bring it to California more often. ;-)

Actually, I -do- -- pretty much everything in my repetoire is on my Palm, either because I uploaded it there, or because I typed it in after Kathy guilted me into carrying words around more often. (And before that, I would just have the names of most of my repetoire, sans words, in the Palm, to remind me of what I knew).

But my repetoire of over 100 songs still doesn't have enough I want to sing at any given time.

And thanks! I'd like to, but it's a bit of a hike -- I'll be at the 2006 Worldcon, in all likelyhood, though.

Hey -- we're only a plane ride away (just think of the frequent flyer miles!), airfares have come WAY down, and we have good Dim Sum across from the hotel.
