	<description>After decades of urban sophistication, career hopping, and ambitious cocktail swilling, I traded it all for 11th hour parenthood.                               Apparently you can't just hand in your 2 weeks' notice for this one and there is no vacation..</description>

		<description>You had to look up your own lyrics on the internet? This is hilarious. A bit like googling yourself. 
I always wondered how performers could sing and dance at the same time. When I put little L to bed and make an attempt to sing a lullaby on the way up to the nursery, singing sounds like wheezing by the 1st floor. 
All the best of luck for your gig. You rock!</description>

		<description>I will be with you in spirit and hairbrush, singing along and smiling at you.  You&#039;ll do brilliantly and it will all fit right back into place.  Its only because you haven&#039;t use this side of your life for a while that it feels foreign.  My dearest friend who was very well known in her late teens and 20&#039;s deals with this constantly.  I see her fear and nervousness just as she&#039;s walking on stage and then it seems to slot back into place.  Your fans follow you wherever you go and will be so excited to sing along and danced to the tunes that bring back such memories from them.  xx</description>

		<description>Very best of luck, it sounds very exciting. And if bottles are thrown, break into &quot;rawhide&quot;! (I&#039;m still intrigued as to who you are/were in your previous life!)</description>

		<description>Look at what a great performance you gave in this post. Required reading for anyone about to do anything scary-but-wonderful-and-adrenaline-raising. Only two things left to say - where and when? Oh, and best of luck!</description>

		<description>Thanks for all the support, people. I&#039;m sure it will come right on the actual night, but it&#039;s quite shocking how crapola it is right now. But hey, I started out with a hairbrush and my mirror and it is only fitting that I should be here at the fag end of my career, too.
LCM You are quite right about the Blues Bros. scene. That club was actually much swankier, decoratively, than the one in the movie as it had strobe lights and a flashing disco floor, but it was very disturbing to have to be protected by a fence from punters. Also the bouncers were terrifying - grinding their teeth to nubs from too much bad coke and straining at the leash for a good stomping on somebody&#039;s head. I could not WAIT to get out of there. Good thing the PA&#039;s are not very long. Whew!</description>
