Crap. How did I get to be 30 already? It seems like only last Tuesday it was 1999 and I was 29. Well...now that I'm all growed up, I guess I've got to listen to grown-up music. Ahhh...easy listening. Or, wait!!! Frank Sinatra, yup, Frank, Deano those dudes, they were the sh*t. Now what to … Continue reading Twisted MixTape 18

Welcome to Twisted MixTape Tuesday, this week we disembark from the 90's. This decade has been the most versatile and controversial yet. For me the 90's were an extremely transitional period. I transferred college 6 times, lived in 4 states, graduated in 6.5 years. Took one year off to follow The Grateful Dead. Managed … Continue reading Twisted MixTape 17
Old School Blogging
So my friend Dana over at Kiss My List tagged me in the Old School Blogging Lists of Five. I am happily playing along, because it's fun, and I don't want to think of something serious and poignant to write. Funnily enough, I couldn't think of 5 things I'd like to do before I … Continue reading Old School Blogging

The only rule? Your post must be … Continue reading 100 Word Song – People Have the Power

I can't believe how hard these lists have been. For a decade that most people say was void of much "quality" music. It's been nearly impossible to stick to my own rules. So much so that I was tempted to have an 80's vol 3, but it's time to move on. We've all tracked down … Continue reading Twisted MixTape Tuesday 15
100 Word Song – I Think It’s Going To Rain Today
She bolted from the drugstore. Leaning against the closed-door she took big gulps of air. Her eyes filled with tears; she looked up to see the sky streaked with gray. The kindness and warmth Beaufort had shown her was overwhelming. Her thoughts came fast and hard; This explained her emotionally distant parents. Lu was her mother. … Continue reading 100 Word Song – I Think It’s Going To Rain Today

It's the 70's. It's not a GIANT decade for me musically because, let's face it, I was born in 1970. Most of my musical influences were not my own. Although - lucky for me - my dad had awesome taste in music. When I did get the opportunity to make some of my own … Continue reading Twisted Mix Tape Tuesday 13

I would be a big fat liar if I said this week's mix wasn't completely affected by the fact that I am on vacation. I would also be a liar if I didn't admit that when I am on vacation I leave my life behind me. It has been a stretch to do anything other … Continue reading Twisted Mix Tape Tuesday 12
I Go Back, Way Back
I just said to my sister, "You know that blogger Sarah, The Sadder But Wiser Girl (she stared at me blankly) You know the one I thought was so awesome and totally stalked and then found out she liked me too? (still blank stare) Well she's guest posting for me tomorrow. (more blank stares) That's … Continue reading I Go Back, Way Back
