#FifteenMinuteFaves: “Sine From Above” by Lada Gaga (featuring Elton John)

It’s finally here! Lady Gaga’s brand new, dance fueled opus Chromatica!

Baby, when I tell you, this album gives me just what I need! I was listening to the album for the first time while writing a blog post about feeling empty and creatively constipated. I found myself in a crazy conflict because the pulse and rhythms of the album were giving me creative ideas left and right…dammit!

If I told you

You were beautiful

You’d say nothing.

If I told you

You make me smile

You’d say nothing

If I told you

Your fashion

Was impeccable

You’d say nothing

If I threw my arms

Around you

You’d remain motionless

If I kissed your rouged cheek

I’d be met with coldness

If I pleaded for your attention

I’d be met with more stone silence

My tears

I’m sitting here in the lovely breeze of my apartment listening to the new Lady Gaga album. Jasmine incense scents the air. I’m freshly showered and dressed. I feel calm, relaxed and happy…adjacent.

This is significant only because yesterday, I feel I had a mini-breakdown. The fires of protest still smolder in Minnesota. Our “president” has shown repeatedly that, not only do we have no…

So, we’ve all been under quarantine for a while now. I’ve been hearing a lot people mention how social distancing and isolation have been affecting them mentally in a variety of ways.

I’ve been going through it myself here and there. Because of it, I have a few thoughts and questions:

Isn’t it too early for me to be dreaming about alien invasions?

Books have been playing a larger role in my…

Groceries, "The Look" & The Process

The past few days have been an emotional whirlwind. A tornado of feelings. Fear, anxiety, sadness, hope and a shit-ton more that don’t have actual names. And of course I know that I’m not the only one.

Are we going to be okay? What are the coming weeks/months/years going to look like? Can we survive this?

I feel comfortable answering the last one. Yes.Those of us lucky enough to make it…

#AlbumADay 2/18/20 “Weather” by Huey Lewis & The News (2020)

Yes, THAT Huey Lewis & The News!

I couldn’t resist giving this album a try. I remember the feel good rock n’ blues vibe the band had throughout the 80’s. I was curious how much their vibe has changed over the years…turns out not much at all!

They’re all a little older, and they acknowledge it throughout (While We’re Young, Her Love Is Killin’ Me) but they still know how to have a good time!…

Everything…

Everything…

Everything…is awful.

Nothing…

Nothing…

Nothing…is fair.

Why…? Your face.



Mind Infection Diversion Tactic #1: 10 Things That Crack Me The Hell Up

I’m sick of hearing, thinking and talking about politics, the presidential candidates, the possible ruin of the United States, etc., yackity-smackityblahblahblah…

Instead, I decided to think of things that make me giggle like a 9-year-old girl.

  1) People using the flashlight on their expensive-ass smartphone to navigate their living room because the electricity got cut off.

2) That chick at…
