Forever is a long time
Katherine: I'm going to try out for American Idol when I'm old enough. And I already know what song I'm going to sing--a Kelly Clarkson one.
Dad: That's six years away. Do you think you'll still like Kelly Clarkson then?
Katherine: I'm going to like Kelly Clarkson forever. Or until I'm 20 at least.
Fifteen minutes is a long time when you're 10. That's how long "Rhapsody in Blue" is. While that piece is one of my all-time faves (it's Ipod worthy), it stretched the limits of fourth-grade patience at Orchestra Hall today.
