"Close your eyes... Let's go back in time.... (play some cracklin' radio sounds - changing the dial)
... back before Shania Twain... before Garth Brooks... before Reba and Wynonna... back to the late 50's... Ahh... timeless.... three time winner of Miss Patsy Cline"

In RL - I am a truck driver. I always wanted to sing, but my mom would NOT have it! As a result of being yelled at for singing, I had an awful case of stage fright... Got to singin' on the CB radio in the truck, watchin' all 48 states and most of Canada wiz by... hours at a time... keepin' men up all night... then Karaoke came to town - Hubby and I came home off the road - (medical problems - so I had to take some time off)

I missed singing to the guys - so hubby took me out - got me liquored up real good, and got me up on stage - got rid of the stage fright that night! The place was completely silent when I was singing... men were in tears... women were talking about goosebumps... I was 'instructed' to enter an upcoming singing contest. I sang "Sweet Dreams" that night... they said "Where has she been!? Where have you been hiding her!? She could walk into Patsy Cline's shoes right now!"

Yeah - won a few contests - had some nice vacations as a result... Even tried out for Nashville Star - got pretty far - shocked the hell out of them... but my medical problems and my overall looks.... well, let's just say, SL is the only way I will ever be able to vent what I have inside me, outside of my local live performances... hubby and I run a karaoke company now, besides driving trucks locally
