I'm just back from singing, and I'm a little rattled.

I figured I'd have a rough time re: musculature, since I haven't really been *speaking* much since the pandemic began. (Vaping weed, though. A LOT.)

And I knew it would be rough because I got punished for making noise, and that's actual trauma to overcome.

Plus I knew it would be rough because I gave up music for decades. It surfaces emotions and I needed to *suppress* them to Be Perfect (to survive). So, like, there are *feelings.*
