What's on your Player

I have been sadly slacking on my blog. Not because I have nothing to say but because an evil virus basically destroyed our home computer. Not to mention I've been looking for apartments,cars,and time to read and knit before school starts. So Here's a random list of the music I've heard this summer on the way to....

Chicago:

1. Eye of the tiger
2. My girl wants to party all the time(so weird right, some radio station in Indiana)
3. Super Freak(same weird radio station)
4. California Girls( some Katy Perry song-have no clue gets real old real fast)
5. I want to Sex you up(ever listen to a song when your an adult and think WWIT(what was I thinking)
6. All this Love(still love it)
7. Tick-Tock( annoying to say the least)

This is what comes from being unprepared on a long car trip. You are forced to depend on the radio for musical excellence.

Work to and From:

1. Glycerin
2. Heard about You(gen x station 106.7)
3. Jesus is Love (Still can't find that one on CD)
4. Champagne Life(Love it-or is it Ne-yo that I love-musically that is)
5. Step in the name of Love (still makes me want to move)
6. Back in Black
7. Jumping Jack Flash

Cd's:


1. Forgiven
2. The house that built me
3. Lead Me
4. Gimme Love
5. Cry me a River
6. All of Me
7. L-O-V-E
8. I Just haven't met you yet
You could probably tell that the last 4 songs are old torch songs. I'm beginning to think that I just might love the big band sound. I already like the dances. Now If I could just get someone to pay me to dance hmm..... well anyway Michael Buble is my singer of choice right now.
9. The Best of You
10. DOA( Foo Fighters make excellent gym music. nuff said.

So what artists have been lighting your fire lately? Lets share and by virtue of that sharing become even more musically diverse? I'm always willing to give anything a listen. Now if they would only create a website like Good Read but for Music listeners-how awesome would that be!

The Traveling Librarian!

Well guys,

I've went coastal now. I have currently been to 4 libraries in my journey out west. I visited a library in South Dakota that had an interesting approach to their lost and found. Once a month they spread items from the lost and found on the table with a sign that says" If this is yours take it". There was a library in Yellowstone national park. Really cute and small, had access to Internet with a guess pass. The second library was in the doubletree hotel in Berkeley California, I "checked out" Angry Agnes and the hit man(yes I brought lots of books but I"m a reader I zoomed through them). The last an most interesting library was in Reno Nevada. I say interesting but the library was located in side the mall. This is the first time I've experienced what it feels like to be a customer waiting on the other side of the gate waiting for the branch to open. Who know what I'll find next.

Trivia Time!

Let's play a game! I'll give you some clues and you can figure out where I've been so far.

I traveled through three states in the first day of my trip. Here's your clues.

State number one is the 19th state to be added to the union.

State number two is home to the white sox and cubs.

State number three has a Mayo Clinic.

Can you guess where I've been?

Tune in tomorrow(if I can find a hotel with a business center) to see where I was and where I went next!

Well guys,

I should have read the contest rules completely. I thought you would just submit one of your favorite photos. It actually had to be a photo from a columbus arts festival. So I won't be submitting my photo:(. It's cool- Thanks to all who voted.

Where has desi been?

Hey all,

I've been a very busy lady lately. First can I just say that I love being in school right now. Not only for the learning opportunity but for the cheap tickets I get from OSU. Of course I pay a quarterly activity fee so I'm kind of subsidising my own fun. Where have I been well.....

On May 21st my cousins and I went salsa dancing and got a free dinner from cheddars(they were too slow and ended up buying our dinner for us).

On May 22nd-my birthday! I went to the cleveland indians game with my friend Ms. A.


We didn't win but I still had fun and we stayed for the fireworks!

I cooled it down and did a couple papers and learned a couple dips in my social dance class

but I want to get here!

Then I went to the crew game with my friends Mr. B and Ms. A. I had a blast. Favorite comment from kids: "We're not blacking out the galaxy maybe their wearing sunscreen" and "That's expensive for beer" out of the mouth of babes!

Well I'm off to a clippers games next. I can't wait to see the new stadium.

Check ya later gaters

Going,going,Gone

My time has been going,going,gone for the last two quarter. Consequently, this is the first time that I've been able to post anything. Here's a quick rundown of what's been going on so far. I've been:

1. Salsa Dancing
2. Ballroom Dancing
3. Apartment Hunting
4. Hiking
5. Reading bloody Shakespearean history plays(yippee!)
6. Trying to get another MP3 player that actually plays all my music.
7. Making noise
8. Sleeping whenever I can(on the side of the road-at a red light-I'm not picky)
9. Boldly going where not cook has gone before-pulled pork with homemade barbecue
sauce!
10. Becoming addicted to groupon and buying all my dream items at half-price
11. Speaking of half-price went to half-priced books and scored a box set of musicals from the 30's and 40's-6 bucks
12. Doing my taxes-hopefully correctly
13. Planning my trip across the United States!
14. Trying to be grateful for the little things in life like 72% cocoa chocolate and groupon.

Well that's all I can think about this morning-12:32 am. I wouldn't be up but I just finished the rough draft of my Titus Andronicus paper(blood thirsty thriller choc full of murder and mayhem not to mention enemy pies-but don't take my word for it!). Will now sleep approximately 8 hours and hope to construct this paper correctly in order to produce and A and not just for effort from Ms. Oleary.

Wish me luck!


P.S.

Rip Guru!
