Song of the Day #31: You Can’t Resist It

It came on the iTunes list in the search for “can’t you,” as in “Can’t You Hear Me Knocking.” Of course, I’d been thinking about the song for days, so it grabbed my attention. We only have the original, really 80s sounding version from his first album, which sounds more like the Beaver [...]

Song of the Day #30: Road to Nowhere

Last Friday morning, I was upstairs reading the paper, having a lazy morning. I get up and leave the house on Saturdays (women’s meeting) and Sundays (church). Sometimes, I just want to hang out in my pajamas and read, like any normal person does on the weekend for at least half and hour. No, [...]

Song of the Day #29: Breathe Me

On the Wednesday the 30th of November, there was no SOTD.I consider this a triumph. a return to balance, or at least a break in my frenzy. After the the day of despair and drive of redemption, I kind of deserved a break. (As did anyone who’s bothered to keep up with this entire [...]

Song of the Day #28: The George Harrison Triple Threat

Last Tuesday, the 29th of November, was the day of despair. All I could think was that SOTD was a sham. I was a sham. My writing was a sham.Anyone who could think that she was finding signs of intelligent life in the universe by listening to uplifting or calming or amusing [...]

Song of the Day #26: Love Having You Around

Stevie Wonder – Love Having You Around
Here’s where some of the major questions addressed in SOTD #23 got to me. Last Sunday, I put on “Love Having You Around” because I had to do the laundry. I then decided that it was SOTD. Now, looking back at it, I think it might [...]

Song of the Day #25: Oh! You Pretty Things

On Friday morning after Thanksgiving, I woke up early and went downstairs and wrote. What I wrote was no good, but at least I tried and it was early and I thought about trying to wake up early and write every morning. I’m still thinking about that. I just seem to need [...]

Song of the Day #24: Can’t You Hear Me Knocking

SOTD #24 brings us to Thanksgiving. That means I’m only seven days behind. Thanksgiving did not start off promisingly. Chris woke up at around 2 to commence a night of barfing. I woke up almost every time he did. Plus, I hadn’t gone to bed until 1 because I was [...]

Song of the Day #23: My Cherie Amour

Obviously, I’ve been giving a lot of thought to “Song of the Day” and I think I’ve come to a few conclusions that I will share with you now:1. Every day does not necessarily have a Song of the Day.
2. If I’m stressing out possibly missing SOTD because I’m listening to the wrong station or [...]
