I owe everyone comments

Sorry it's been nuts. It's 11 pm and I'm not even sitting down to work yet.

Part of the problem is my power went out.

Part of the problem is today was the faculty-staff art show. I didn't have anything in it but I regret that now. i should have done something. I wanted to do things. I have ideas. What I don't have is time and once I cross the threshold of this place all I do is sit and do nothing but play on the internet. I need to start setting boundaries. Anyone else have this issue? Anyhow the art show was really nice.

I still don't have time to do the picspam but here is the art I bought, well the artist. If you look at fan art (which is weird as she said this was all fairytale inspired vs fan art) the one on the far left, the girl with the boy with the wings is the one I bought. I like it a lot

How about a little twist on music monday? Every week a new letter represented. You've seen this challenge before. So the group/solo act has to start with the letter of the week and if you want you can borrow this for you blog or drop your music into the comments here. Let's have some fun with this.

Letter D

Living still in the 80s and 90s have some Duran Duran. This is one of my favorites of theirs

But I'm not always in the past, have a little of today. I do rather like Dua Lipa

And since E is next week, let's have Dua and Elton to round it out.

Yeah, that is so totally Howl and Sophie of Howl's Moving Castle (at least as Hayao Miyazaki made them look in his movie version)!

[cornerofmadness]

Yes I can definitely see that (speaking of shows I should rewatch)

[suzume]

Ha ha ha (yes, I think you should)

[cornerofmadness]

right after brotherhood

[suzume]

Sounds like a plan!

YES.THIS. I don't know how to break out of that bad habit. I have so many projects I want to do and all I do is scroll youtube and instagram and watch other people do what I want to do. It's frustrating but that still doesn't kick my ass. If you come up with a solution, please share.

hard same. The only thing I can think of is to get an internet blocker and a timer and be firm with myself.

Hey, do you mind if I come back to some of these earlier posts and add in a couple more suggestions?

The Doobie Brothers - What A Fool Believes

Doc Watson - Shady Grove

The Decemberists - Annan Water Seeing as they're one of my favorite bands, it was kind of hard to pick just one song! But this one comes from the toward the end of a themed album.

David Bowie - Absolute Beginners This was another difficult one to pick! I figured I should go for something less mainstream?

[cornerofmadness]

These are good. Haven't heard Doc Watson before I don't think nor that particularly Decemberists song

[suzume]

For some reason, it didn't occur to me before that I could add in my own songs too??

[cornerofmadness]

that's okay
