This year has been unexpected to say the least. I can’t say that everything for me personally was terrible. I can’t say it was the most awesome year either. It was a roller coaster. So far I’ve been mostly healthy – except for anxiety, one cold at the beginning of the pandemic and kidney stones.Continue reading “Year in Review: WTF 2020?!?!”

Quarantine Interview, Part 1: Eric Miko Findlay
Call me crazy but I have always loved drummers. Animal is my favorite muppet as well as drummer and always will be. Who is your favorite drummer? It always makes me sad that drummers don’t get the spotlight as often as they should. I mean, except for Sheila E., who might be my favorite drummerContinue reading “Quarantine Interview, Part 1: Eric Miko Findlay”
Artist’s Studio: Weshoyot Alvitre
If you could tell artist Weshoyot Alvitre how much you enjoy her comic book art and other art, what would you say? Some terms sound so boring and not exactly right but not exactly wrong either – amazing, awesome, stunning, amazeballs, etc. I had to break down and Google types of compliments. The one thatContinue reading “Artist’s Studio: Weshoyot Alvitre”
The Water Dancer: #bookreview
The Water Dancer begins in the river with two young men – Maynard and Hiram- trying to not get swept away by the river’s current. One of them cannot get away from the water and loses his life. The other man barely escapes with his life. They are half-brothers. One man is the heir toContinue reading “The Water Dancer: #bookreview”
Sleep Deprived Music Review: Mereba
So far my YouTube suggestions have not totally failed me during this pandemic. When YouTube starts recommending crap, then it will be a sad day indeed. Today, Mereba of Philadelphia was on the list of stuff I might like. Oh my gosh you guys. She is amazing! Stop what you are doing and stream herContinue reading “Sleep Deprived Music Review: Mereba”
A Christmas Wish (Sapphire Bay #3): #bookreview
Happy Holidays! I hope everyone is enjoying this holiday season as much as possible. I mean, if we were in the same situation as Megan in A Christmas Wish, we would be on the run from terrorists. On the plus side, we would be stuck in a beautiful cabin in the mountains with our delightfulContinue reading “A Christmas Wish (Sapphire Bay #3): #bookreview”
Music You Didn’t Know You Wanted for Christmas: Johnnyswim
Dear Santa, You and I aren’t big drinkers, except for milk and cookies of course. However, I do think that we can agree on enjoying Christmas drinking songs, like “Pass Me a Pint” by Johnnyswim. There is a sense of commaraderie and togetherness – some would even say unity. So let’s raise our classes ofContinue reading “Music You Didn’t Know You Wanted for Christmas: Johnnyswim”
Quarantine Interview, Part 1: Dean England
Is Dean England charming because he is British or because charm comes naturally? Either way, we would like to welcome him to the blog for the latest Quarantine Interview. Dean England has released a solo album, Feel, Think, Do, that is available in all of the usual places on the internet. There are a fewContinue reading “Quarantine Interview, Part 1: Dean England”
The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus: #bookreview
Just when you think you are the Christmas Cheermeister and know everything possible about Christmas, some new information will present itself on your Santa Claus radar. I had no idea until last week that The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus by L. Frank Baum was an actual book. There is also at least oneContinue reading “The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus: #bookreview”
Music You Didn’t Know You Wanted for Christmas: Dolly Parton
Dear Santa, You probably know already but Dolly Parton is a national treasure. Maybe you didn’t know that when I was a kid I loved the Christmas special with Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers. I still watch it whenever it’s possible – usually by myself because I thought I was the only one around hereContinue reading “Music You Didn’t Know You Wanted for Christmas: Dolly Parton”
