In the mood for some music

I'm not sure what makes me go on YouTube and look up old music...but periodically, I get the urge to wile away a few hours in nostalgia. So here's what I did last night when I couldn't sleep...

Chumbawumba - Tubthumping


The Night I Heard Caruso Sing - Everything but the Girl (not an official video, but the song is beautiful)



Missing - Everything but the Girl (the last song they released before Roby died - we listened to it over and over and over in those last months)


Alison Moyet on David Letterman - Otis Redding's "Try a Little Tenderness"


Walkaway - Kelly Clarkson

Out of Town again

I'm going to Oakland again for business. Will be gone for a week. I hope it's a good trip.

Jean's page - Early Blog

Here is a link to my first attempt at making a website...I was going to put more poetry on it, but I loved how it looked so much, I didn't mess with it anymore...

http://vindaloorent.homestead.com/jeanspage.html

I have a few of these pages wandering around. I think I have them listed on WildRumpusing on the left side if you are interested in looking at them. Much more image heavy - I could do that on homestead...

Anyway, I thought I would post it here since it directly influenced me changing the name of the blog.

Photo Mosaic - Joy Pink Dance

The last mosaic had TWO duplicate pictures in it...GRR. So I made an entirely new one with a theme...Joy, pink, dance.

Photo Mosaic - Flickr Exploration 3

I love photos and color. I read a blog that had a photo mosaic on it and I have been messing with that ever since I saw it...

MIA from Blogland

I keep thinking that I will have something brilliant to share if I just give myself some time, but I actually think that the more time I take away, the less I have to talk about. I know that I think about all kinds of stuff all day long and when I was blogging every day, at least I took the time to kind of simmer down and put something out there...It didn't always make sense, but I think it helped me gather my thoughts.

I know that Nablopomo was too much pressure to do a third month in a row. It wasn't the daily thing so much as the theme and how I never managed to keep to the theme everyday. I'm looking to see what the July theme is...my birthday month, so it might be cool to do another one for that...depends on the theme, though.

Anyway, not much to share. I saw a good movie called, "The Namesake" which I really liked. I love East Indian information, color, people, etc. I liked it a lot. Made me miss my Dad.

Been away...

Well, I took a little break from blogging..I thought about coming back, but I just needed a break...Lots of things going on in my mind and life..

I interpreted "High School Musical" today...the movie and the show are not the same. They basically took parts of the show, the same basic idea and added more songs, split it up so it was more complicated and put it on stage. After "Sweeney Todd" and some of the more serious shows I have done, it was nice, but it is so hard to do shows when we only get to see it once before we interpret...I call it "kamikazee interpreting", we bomb in and bomb out and people barely notice we are even there.

Anyway, I will be back starting now. Rest is good.
