Unusual Minds

I have things to write about! I went out last night! I talked to friends! My totally involuntary August hiatus is sort of over. It’s not as my schedule is still light. At least today I don’t have to struggle to find something to write. Last night I went to Rockwood Music HallStage 3 for […]

The North Wind

Bienvenue mes gentils lecteurs. I’m greeting you in French because last night I saw Le Vent Du Nord, a band from Quebec, and Google Translate does not include Québécois.

What Do I Love More Than Love

Last night I had an early celebration of my birthday as Kevin took me to see Dar Williams with Susan Werner opening. That should be all I need to write, the rest you can figure out for yourself. Just as 2 + 3 = 5; Dar + Susan = Great Time. Sure I just saw […]

I had my second glass of iced coffee, this one with ice cream instead of ice, so I’m ready to tackle my second blog of the day. It was the second Tuesday of the month and that means I went to John Platt’s On Your Radar. It was the second Tuesday of July and that […]
