So annoying! I am def. one to shove it under the rug unless it is actually a big deal. But you know, choosing to deal w/ stuff shows me that usually working it out w/ the other person wasn't so hard. But still out of the comfort zone! Hope things get smoothed out soon. with your dad too....... (((hugs))) I hate situations that call for some type of action. So annoying!

I emailed her last night. Jamie convinced me that I shouldn't just try to ignore how I feel. Emily, I totally agree. Thanks! Thanks, Pam. I emailed her last night.

You are both great singers and you both sang it well. I assumed it had already been worked out and that the director was just giving you a break because you do so much for us! Anyway... see you Sunday. Hey – I think I would just ask the question, talk about the confusion, and clear it up. You are both great singers and you both sang it well.

I would, and btw I would also assume this about altos, tenors, baritones, and basses. It's OK to have a conversation to clear up confusion. It's even OK to talk about the confusion hurting your feelings. And the chat can be brief, matter-of-fact, and focused on next steps. Please tell us what you decide to do and how it goes!
