Confession: I sing in the car

I don't mean just kind of be-bopping along to the music, maybe belting a line or two.

I mean I perform full on concerts in the car, emoting, making facial expressions, and generally looking a fool to other drivers, I'm sure. Do I care? Hell no! LOL! I absolutely love singing - it is probably my most favorite thing to do. If I couldn't sing, like became tone deaf or lost my voice suddenly, I would have to be talked of the ledge, that's how upset I would be. This is not to say I think I have the most amaaazing voice ever or anything. I'm actually really self conscious about singing in front of people unless I am performing on stage in a show. Basically, I don't mind if people watch me sing as a character, but I get very nervous about people watching ME, CurlySue, sing. Yeah, that's a little weird - feel free to arm chair psychologize me.

So, because I'm self-conscious about people watching me sing and because its generally socially unacceptable to go throughout your day emoting songs everywhere ( why *can't my life be a musical??), I sing in the car. This works out great for me since I have a 35 minute commute to and from work. Plenty of time to screech those high notes and pretend I'm performing in my favorite musical shows. If you're ever on the road and notice a driver who looks like they are yelling on their bluetooth and being overly expressive, they are probably a total nerd like me and singing their heart out in the car. Heck, maybe its even me!
