My private teacher verbally attacked me in a lesson when I whipped out chapstick for my sore lips. Apparently it damages the cane. Well, if I had to chose between a shot embouchure or damaged reeds I'd pick damaged reeds. Somehow I always end up with both though ;).

I don't wear makeup, including lip gloss or lipstick ... but my daughter is getting married and I'm thinking I want to look ... well ... pretty. Or maybe not pretty (I'm not really pretty) but at least "made up". So I'm gonna give this a go! (I'm playing for the processional.) Read your single post too. It's rough, isn't it? I have a lot of single friends and I know the issues with them. Of course there are also issues with being married ... like not being included in stuff my single pals will do and, because I'm a church goer and my husband isn't, being "married but single" at church ... they haven't a CLUE what to do with me! Ah well. Gives me something to whine about. I whine quite well. Happy bassooning to you! Thanks for the tip!
