Fainting...

... it's scary.

Went to Six Flags with Dad and Ian today! Tons of craic as always!! But it so happens while standing in line for our 4th ride and I suddenly feel very dizzy and sick. One second I'm leaning on the line railing for support....
... Next thing I'm on the ground and Dad's asking me if I'm okay. Apparently I'd fainted. That's something that, I'm happy to say, has NEVER happened before to me. Hopefully it'll never happen again.
I've had over three things of water and much to eat since then, all while trying to convince my family that I feel a-okay now!

Still in variety mood.... but not really...

We get Sephira!! 

What makes this Variety but not really Variety is that the two beautiful girls that make up "Sephira", sisters Ruth and Joyce O'leary, are the two violinists in the string quartet that travels with Celtic Thunder. 

So it's variety... but not really...

Either way the music the two gals make is absolutely beautiful. Minus the back up singing they do in Damian's Happy Birthday Sweet 16, I hadn't the faintest idea they were singers as well as violinists. I had actually heard Keith talk about the group at one point as well, but didn't know that the girls were the same. I'm quite slow.

back to some kind of variety....

but still music, and still a guy. 

JOSH GROBAN!!

Have I ever told you all the song "You Raise Me Up" has been done to death. (No offense to Celtic Woman, or Paul. Their versions are plenty nice) Well, Josh's was the first version of it I ever heard. Not counting an annoying kid in a sixth grade talent show.
My friend Lauren, who is brilliant at knowing what I like, let me listen to some more of his songs a while back. He has such a fantastically beautiful voice. And he's totally humble and hilarious too. Good qualities, they are.



And while I love all the versions I've heard, there is something incredibly awesome about doing it with a gospel choir. Yay Josh!
