Instead of writing...

I've been catching up on my favorite blogs. I hate getting behind. It snowballs and then I miss so much. If I haven't paid you a visit in a while, please know I am thinking about you and will be stopping in shortly.

This past Thursday I went out of town to help out the treatment center I used to work at and didn't get back until yesterday afternoon. I am fortunate to have a boss that lets us switch shifts with each other and rearrange schedules. It was nice to see everybody... I had fun and the extra money will come in handy, especially when it comes time to pay the bill for this snazzy new mobile laptop. :)

Speaking of which, I have not been able to move my files from my old computer yet. My neighbor can't install my new motherboard until Tuesday and I'm afraid to even turn it on until that's done. I miss my files. I'm actually obsessing about them a little. Particularly this lovely piece of erotica I was working on to submit to G.V. that I am seriously freaking out about. But thanks to a really nice friend, I at least have 33 songs on here... enough to have a random six...

Nina Simone - Please Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood (the original. I love it!!!)
Fiona Apple - Criminal
Ray LaMontagne - Empty
Big Mama Thornton - Hound Dog
Roy Orbison - She's a Mystery to Me
Bobby "Blue" Bland - I Stand Accused

  5. After the last time my computer died I started storing almost everything online since I fear losing it all. Once I started I found how handy it is to have it there since I can get to it from any computer at any place when ever I want to. Especially the erotica. =)

  6. Carlos and Tricia, she still makes music and tours but has never made Top 40 type music. Criminal was a fluke hit. Her last album was awesome. Come to think of it, that album was released about four years ago. Hmmm... maybe she's busy making another. I hope anyway.

    LAF, I am sending you a link.

    Ramesh, much love and cheers to you and Sharjah. I've never been there, but you are there so it must be a great place! :)

    Deepak, you are certainly welcome. No thanks necessary though... I love your photography.

    Kadri, as luck would have it, I had just cleared my Fileden and Megaupload accounts of all the music, save for a few songs. I bought a flash drive and I'm going to start storing everything on it so that this type of thing never happens again.

    Prospero, Nina Simone is a beautiful artist. Definitely one of my all-time favorites. Your icon is adorable. I'm a big dog lover.
