It’s been a heck of a week here in New England. I teared up a little listening the Red Sox game yesterday when Neil Diamond made an impromptu appearance to sing along with himself in the seventh inning. A little odd, since the two Neils weren’t always in synch, but quite touching. One good thing, [...]

Monday Morning Music
Happy Monday morning to all of you! This morning’s videos are inspired by the concert R and I got to attend this past Saturday. Saturday was a wonderful day all around, actually. We spent a good chunk of it in one of our favorite towns (Brattleboro) with two of our favorite people, Steph from Visible [...]

Another Sunday. No ice yesterday or today, so I’m calling the weekend a win, just on that count. Yesterday, in fact, was wonderful with good friends and music! I’ll talk more about that in tomorrow’s post, though. Today, as usual (for the most part), it’s time to share links with all y’all. Girl Gamer Tells [...]

Winter of the Novel Update
Okay, yes, it’s technically spring, but you know what? I hacked ice off my windshield this morning and walked through sleet to a morning meeting, so Winter of the Novel it remains.

I have a guest post to share with you today! My friend Steph over at Visible and Real opened up her blog to guest posts recently, and I jumped in with one that you can read here, if you like. Of course, it’s only fair that I now get to post one of hers. I’ve [...]

Monday Morning Music
I was listening to a mix cd from 2008 while I was editing yesterday; one of the songs was Lila Downs‘ “Ojo de Culebra” While I was enjoying it, I wondered if one of her videos might work for MMM. It didn’t surprise me to discover that yes, one of them would. Here she is [...]

Women Learn To Be Women – Part 2 (Runaways edition)
You know, I actually believed that this series would be no more than four posts (and that I would have it done before now, but I should have known better on that account). When I started looking more deeply into the bands that came along in the mid- to late-1970s, I realized how wrong I [...]

Well, the second part of Women Learn To Be Women is still in process. Soon, my dear readers, soon, it’ll be up for your perusal. In the mean time I’m going with Ani again for Monday Morning Music. Her album Evolve came up in conversation this past weekend and this video of a live performance [...]

It’s actually been feeling like spring this weekend which is a very nice change. Especially since we’re mostly out of firewood. There might even be garlic planting today, if enough snow melts off the garden. Fortunately, the weather isn’t an issue when it comes to sharing links. Here’s what struck my fancy this week. What [...]
