Music Monday: No More Tears (Enough is Enough) by Barbara Streisand and Donna Summer

You know what I love about streaming music? I get to hear music not heard since I was a kid. I had my teen years in the 80's, but my childhood was in the 70's with its disco anthems. I had a Donna Summer track before, but I forgot about this duet with Barbara Streisand. I … Continue reading Music Monday: No More Tears (Enough is Enough) by Barbara Streisand and Donna Summer →

Getting Back to Get Up And Go

My week in a nutshell: If anyone finds my get-up-and-go, please return it as soon as possible. I will return yours as everyone's get-up-and-go got up and went somewhere. Who said that erudite quote? Me, on Facebook, yesterday. Some people have throwback Thursdays; I had thrown back Thursday. Turns out many people felt a little … Continue reading Getting Back to Get Up And Go →

“Superheroes in Gotham” Exhibition

I just about swooned like Coulson when I saw this post. Well, one for the list.

Music Monday: Don’t Be So Hard On Yourself by Jess Glynne

Today's song came by accident. I switched from Rdio to Spotify and discovered this song through a mix. If my 2016 has a theme song, it's this one. I began making my way forward four days into the new year. I bought a piece of carry-on luggage for New York and spent some time pouring … Continue reading Music Monday: Don’t Be So Hard On Yourself by Jess Glynne →

Things I Learned in 2015

Gosh, that sounds like a lame title. I wrote my first post of 2016 at 2:30 am. I started to feel exhaustion creep up yet felt like going for a few more rounds. In the end, the exhaustion won, and I fell asleep to chaotic dreams. I noticed my dreams ran along the usual themes … Continue reading Things I Learned in 2015 →

Music Monday: O Holy Night as Sung By Tracy Chapman

      I don't know who originally said it, but someone once wrote how  Jesus was born a refugee and died a criminal. Pretty accurate. The Jesus-as-refugee point has received a lot of attention lately as Syrians flee the country either making the crossing by boat or finally boarding a plane from temporary places … Continue reading Music Monday: O Holy Night as Sung By Tracy Chapman →

New York State of Mind

I had a co-worker with a sixth sense regarding travel deals. Travelling solo to parts of Europe and the United States and experience in the hospitality business equipped her with a nose for a deal. One slow day in July, she called me over and pointed to a round-trip flight to New York for under … Continue reading New York State of Mind →

Seeing The End In Sight

Tomorrow! Tomorrow! I Luv ya! Tomorrow! My test is only a day away. Cue the swirling skirts a la The Sound of Music: I clash musical theatre metaphors to say my test happens tomorrow. I will put Medical Terminology to bed, only to resurrect it for my zombie story if needed, or my Grey's Anatomy … Continue reading Seeing The End In Sight →
