Window Peeking

November 30, 2007

Today being the last day of NaBloPoMo is something of a relief, I confess. Until maybe a week ago I was perfectly content to post everyday. I find that I have a lot I want to say, go figure! I was asked recently about my involvement with a website I touted early in my blogging […]

I realize that I HAVE been tagged by I think, three blogging buddies this week and I promise I will fulfill my tagging duties for each and every one but right now my brain is completely cloudy so it won’t be today. : ) This thought has been on my mind a lot lately though […]

About 10 years ago or so I made an album. A friend produced it. He did a very nice job. I wrote all the songs and recorded the vocals and backup vocals but he arranged and recorded the tunes with studio musicians. Most of the time I was not even there when he recorded them. […]

I’ve been reading Walt Whitman this week.  I’ve been savoring it line by line.  I know you are all weary of my poetic rantings but I gotta share this piece of wonderful wording which best describes my love of community.. “I have perceiv’d that to be with those I like is enough,To stop in company […]

I was thinking today about making eye contact.  I was thinking about how often I avoid the eyes of people while talking to them.  When I first moved to Chicago from Cincinnati I’d walk down the street just looking at all the people I encountered, smiling, saying “Hello.”  After a time I got out of […]

Look, blogging EVERY DAY for a month is not as easy as it may seem.  If it appears that sometimes I am grasping at straws on some posts well then, you’d be right!  I know I’m probably giving you all whiplash with my stirring metaphorical talk one day and then this sort of thing the […]

I’ve moved one step closer to “high maintenance.”  Just thought I’d let you all know…you, dear readers, who have seen the rise of my age spots cause utter chaos in my psyche…you, who have witnessed me turn that to waxing poetic about my grandmother.  Yes, the blogmama has glided one step further along the road […]
