I finally figured it out. The way to not obsess about relationships is to stay so freaking busy you don't have time to even think about anything other than the particular task you're on.
Concrete examples:
The Washington Chorus is in crisis and asked me to set up a Website and a blog for them. Over 100 e-mails flew back and forth yesterday.- The Tucson Alum Club of Pi Beta Phi database lives on my computer and must be updated with personal info from 100+ members and the directory created to go to press on Friday.
- The Mozart Benefit Committee for Tucson Chamber Artists, which I'm co-chairing, is meeting again tonight.
- Next week is "hell week" for TSO Chorus, with rehearsals or performances every night.
- I've been asked to play (and possibly sing back-up on one number) for a benefit for the Tucson Folk Festival, sponsored by the Tucson Kitchen Musicians Association. The rehearsal is Sunday, the performance is the 30th.
- I've just been invited to sing with Tucson Chamber Artists for their Mozart C-minor Mass concert November 4th and 5th, with Sunday rehearsals beginning October 1st. This is an invitation-only professional group, and I'm highly honored to have been invited.
- Oh, yeah. And I have a full-time job!
Mr. Match called last night and suggested he come over for a drink. I said, okay, but don't hurry. When he left at 11:30 pm, I was relieved because then I didn't have to worry about offending him when I got up and on the computer at 5:30 am.
Quite a change of mindset, huh?
