July 22, 2015 I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done. I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them. I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC. |
| Do you have any guilty pleasures when it comes to music...something you think no one else really knows you listen to and enjoy, or are maybe a little afraid to admit? (If this prompt doesn't really appeal to you, you can substitute music for television shows, or movies, or food...any kind of guilty pleasure, I suppose.) What, are you a doing a psychology paper on Bloggers? If you are or are just drawing out personnel information to pass to someone I tell you now, don't do it You do not have individual permission for such shenanigans. If I sound paranoid or am out of order o,k. I live with a group of people who have actually done all those things to me and like to say, "we are experimenting on you." Ugly humanity in action.  As for the prompt, at my age people have stopped feeling quilty about most odds and ends of living. If you are feeling quilty, find out why, move on. People mature mentally. Guilt is usually influenced by environment or what you think you should be and you aren't that person. I listen to all kinds of music. My favorite right now is praise music by several different Jewish christian recording artists. One group that I also like is Enigma. I was introduced to this group by a college student, who was a friend of my sons in the 90's. Interestingly, my horses respond to the recordings in a positive way. Animals actually do have preferences in music and radio programs. I could not find much on the recordings for Enigma the last time I looked, which was a couple years ago before I changed computers. I have albums in western music, praise music of all kinds, soul music, instrumentals of all kinds, classical guitar, love songs, church music, rock and roll artists, music from the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's and 2000's. I don't feel quilty about any of it. I studied music theory in a christian college. I had a great music teacher there who actually showed me how to apply music theory, (which is written with piano in mind ), to guitar. I can play some piano. Do not own a piano. And I play some classical guitar (yes, own a guitar.) My most disturbing thought is how sound is used to influence society in more than one way. I have excellent hearing. So, I insulate myself with quiet. |
