One reason I need the coffee house

A couple days ago I started on a new instrumental piece and I just LOVE it.  It's an orchestral that the orchestra guys will be able to pick apart, but I think it's pretty anyway. 
 
So, when people say 'Hi!  How's it going?' I can talk about whatever, but what I really want to talk about is how much I'm enjoying composing this new song and how beautiful it is.
 
But if I do they usually glance at me and say something like, 'oh really?  Nice weather we're having, eh?'
 
But at least most of you guys around here 'get it.'

    I'm freezing my nuts off over here!!! Nothing orchestral about that. We play Ice tambourines!

    Good luck with the piece Janet. Judging from your other work it'll be great. And have fun making it, that's what matters

    Well, we had our share of freezing weather.  I wish it was over, but I imagine it's not.  Thanks for the good wishes.  I'd have more fun with it if I didn't have to keep interrupting it with work...but it will come.

    IF I can figure out where to go with the next part.    1:24 is a little short.

    See Janet, aren't you so glad  you stopped by to discuss your latest composition, and you see how everyone just picked right up on that    What a crew
     
    Well, I'm happy for you, as I know what that rush is like, and there are few things to rival that feeling.

    Yeah, quite a great crew around here! 

    Beag:  Got the rinse part started last night.  I hope I'll still like it tonight.  We'll see.  Repeat will come after that.  Thanks for the great idea! :-)

    trimph:  Someone told me they heard we're getting another blizzard in March.  (supposed to be 70 here today!).  How in the world can they know that this early?  And is there any way to change their minds?  And furthermore, can I move to Florida?  Oh well...

    Colin, no it's not done yet.  Gotta finish composing it.  Then the mixing will take awhile.  I'll try to remember to make a big announcement here. :-)

    Well since we're talking about music.... it's supposed to be 78 here on friday... might as well call it what it is...80 degrees.... so might be time to throw some cow parts on the grill, and grab a frosty Sam Adams.

    Waddaya think?

    Personaly I'd have thought 1 hour 24 mins would be plenty long enough,  maybe Beag is expecting it to shrink in the rinse/repeat cycle just like most of my sweaters.

    I know that when it comes to shrinking I'm doing a pretty good job myself...after 5 months of walking 2 miles into Atwood ON and 2 miles back every day I've lost 23lbs...and that is with all the slogging through the snow...plus getting an ICD in me heart certainly has given me more energy...

    Is that what causes sweaters to shrink???  Oh!  I thought it was something else...

    That's FANTASTIC Barry!  I've been losing weight since November 1 and I have a feeling that I'll reach a pretty big milestone in my weight loss this week, but I don't want to announce it until it actually happens.  Keep watching for it!
     
    but keep up the good work!  23 pounds just by walking is fantastic!  do you carry a guitar with you or anything?

    Thanks, guys!

    -30??!!  Brrrrrr!!!

    Way to go, Barry!  I just noticed you're in London.  It seems like there are quite a few on the forum from Ont.  Maybe we should all get together next time we get up there.  :-)

    Nothing like rifle PT for a good work out... you military guys and gals know what I'm talking about.

    A 7 lb rifle can sure get heavy real fast.
