Oooo….Ouch

..”The only thing Madonna provokes with her latest tour is sadness at how lame she’s become..” Tough review. Can’t say it’s undeserving, however.

Penguins! More Penguins!

I was browsing in a book store the other day. Everyone has a favorite section of the bookstore, don’t they? I mean the one section they head to first, before going anywhere else? For some it’s the geek, computer book section. For someone else it might be the newest fiction section. Still others may migrate to the biography section. Mine is the classic literature section. I have a running collection of all of Shakespeare’s works on my book shelf at home. I started collecting them years and years ago and I have a proud collection now – after adding to […]

Figure You Out

You just know it’s lust love when your guy says, “Baby – this song has you n’ me written all over it!”. Oh yea, baby . . . I like your pants around your feet I like the dirt that’s on your knees And I like the way you still say please While you’re looking up at me You’re like my favourite damn disease And I love the places that we go And I love the people that you know And I love the way you can’t say no Too many long lines in a row I love the powder […]

Love I leave, but only a little

Ever have one of those songs that just rip your heart out, throws it on the floor and dances the jig on it? Ok – maybe that’s just me. In honor of George & Ann tonight – I’m posting the full lyrics of that very song that dances the jig on my right atrium each and every single damn time I listen to it. Heck, it dances even when I just think of the song. It goes deep inside – – to places that sometimes I’m even afraid to touch. I first heard this song years and years ago – […]

La La La La

I’m a singer. The first time I went to college – I majored in Vocal Performance with a Minor in Music Education. I play the piano and the violin. I always wanted to teach myself how to play the guitar – but never got around to it. In the late ’80s – early 90’s, I made a living as the lead singer of a local/regional rock band called “Tygress”. After two years – Tygress split up and three of us re-grouped, hired a few other musicians and formed a new band called “Kid Sister”. We did it for kicks – […]

Listening Over and Over

how can you see into my eyes like open doors leading you down into my core where I’ve become so numb without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold until you find it there and lead it back home ….. frozen inside without your touch without your love darling only you are the life among the dead all this time I can’t believe I couldn’t see kept in the dark but you were there in front of me I’ve been sleeping a thousand years it seems got to open my eyes to everything without a thought without a voice without […]

The Apprentice

I sat down with a cup of coffee today and realized that C. flys back home exactly a week from today. Where does the time go, I wonder? It’s been pretty wonderful having him around – as always…things are just different when he’s here. I’ve discussed this already in my blog, I hate to sound gushy and repetative . . . however, the realization of his departure date always puts me into a little funk every time. My only saving grace this time is that on January 31st – I hop a flight out to California to be with him […]
