Sorry for being a little MIA lately. I spent last week in Orillia, getting old. And with birthday fun, extra writing assignments and life distractions, I’m afraid this little blog has been getting the shaft lately. I’ll try to remedy this.
Breakups
Breakup songs have been dominating my playlist lately. Not sure why. Maybe it’s because I don’t relate, so I can belt out the tunes without any pangs of sadness. Or maybe I’m singing on behalf of everyone else. Why, lovely people, are you all breaking each other’s hearts? Stop it!
(I wanted to post Cee Lo Green’s not-safe-for-work-or-anywhere-else hit. But then I remembered that kids use the Internet. And so does my mom. Blog censorship is at work here.)
Thinking ‘Bout Somethin’
I’ve posted this before. I don’t care. I L-O-V-E it. Hanson is my not-very-guilty pleasure. Thanks, boys, for writing a bitterness-free ditty about love lost.
Hate (I Really Don’t Like You)
Beth introduced me to this song months ago. It was relevant at the time, but I don’t exactly remember why.
Achy Breaky Heart
Breakups can be annoying.
Love Stories
Love stories are better.
Danny & Annie
An animated two-part radio interview. The cure to cynicism. I cried.

Johnny Fedora and Alice Bluebonnet
While I’m not really a subscriber to the idea of destined soul mates, I do like the idea of animated hats living happily ever after.
Maybe I’m Amazed
This has been stuck in my head this week. Paul McCartney knows how to write a song.

Paul’s song reminded me of my youth…and many episodes of the wonder years.
