Clemmie in the sunset.

I’ll bet the guys that make background music jingles are pretty funny guys.  I picked out the background music for my podcast from some royalty free music at http://www.incompetech.com/ and I tried to imagine what the guy who makes it is like.  I’ll bet he’s pretty funny.

Also, it’s amazing how much emotion music can convey.

I love this kiss, and I love the twirl after the kiss more.

I still have no idea what people did before the internet.  Read books by candlelight?

I saw a little boy, about 7, crying because he hurt his knee.  His mom was comforting him and rubbing his belly, and he was just sobbing and really boohoo-ing in the moment.  I thought, what a luxury to be able to do that.  To just say, ow!, it really hurts!  And cry!  Adults can’t do that.  They should be able to be honest, but no one does. 

Why should we ‘suck it up’?  What’s so wrong with saying OW!

Have you ever noticed that people spend hours on things that are very unimportant and no time at all on things that are?  I’ve spent hours rereading journal entries about old crushes from my teens and I’ve spent little to no time preparing for big presentations or final projects that determined my grades.  Either I’m excellent at procrastinating or a fool.  And I know I’m not the only one.

Corinne Bailey Rae’s husband died in 2007 and this is one of the songs from her newest album, made after his death.  I’m shocked she was able to make it without leaving listeners completely and utterly depressed.  This woman has soul.   And she’s gorgeous too.
