Scrooge Tunes on Yahoo Radio

Normally on Black Friday I pull out all of my Christmas music from years past and que them up on the CD player to play 24/7 until Christmas Day.  This year, however, my husband begged me to reconsider this tradition.  Not wanting to be without tunes to reflect the season though I went online to see if I could find something less cheerful, gleeful and twinkly that we could both enjoy.

Lo and Behold - I found Scrooge Tunes on Yahoo Music's radio channel.  Packed with a variety of music from rock to jazz, country ballads and indie spoofs; there is defiantly a little something for everyone.  The great thing is that if you don't listen to the lyrics the music it sounds like any other Christmas station, which feeds my desire for holiday cheer.  A close ear can pick up the tales of burning Christmas trees, battered carolers and drunken reindeer.

Here's the link if you would like to give it a go:

Be warned that much of this music is not workplace, child or church friendly.  Enjoy!!

True Midnight Ramblings

Ah, July.  Normally a time of constant celebration, this month has been especially trying and filled with sleepless nights and wandering days.  I am looking forward to August when friends return from far off places, grief will be a little closer to subdued, and life will begin to return to normalcy (I hope). In a fit of sleeplessness spurred from a sorrow filled day on the horizon, a late-night emergency and lots of random thoughts and feelings I decided to hover around the internets a while until my eyes start to feel a little more heavy.  I had received a notification that there have been some updates here on Blogger/Blogspot and so I decided to check them out now that I am left with very little to do for the next 8 hours or so. You may notice that this blog, as well as my other two blogs ( A Smaller Bottom and Meet Your Marker ), has received a sudden face-lift.  I was really surprised at the new backgrounds and customizations on the templates toolbar, and ha...

Getting Ready...

... for my very first author appearance in November. It's exciting! It's nerve wracking! It's a great opportunity! It's terrifying! It's going to be a great way to kick off the holiday season! I've got some books on order so there will be copies of both Age/Sex/Location: Love is Just a Click Away and A Giraffe In The Room available for sale. This is my first step into taking my writing on the road - maybe 2014 will include a book tour if this goes well...?

Don't Wait

I awoke Friday morning to a message from someone whose name was only vaguely familiar. Laying in bed, scrolling through Facebook on my cell phone, I opened the message. It was a quick note from a woman who was good friends with a woman who I have been close to for over a decade. I read it, and reeled with shock. My friend, a woman who had been with me through the best and worst of times, is gone. Taken from this life because of a driver who didn't stop at a stop sign on a country road. "Accidents happen," many say. It's true, but it isn't right. We never know when our time is going to be up. Today might be your last day, or mine. There's no way of predicting what will happen tomorrow... this evening... fifteen minutes from now. There are many tragedies stemming from this simple accident. First, a mother with fierce love of her two teenage children was stolen from them. A woman who was a pillar of support for so many has fallen from their list of who to cal...
