Memories

It's a bit of an addiction of mine to attempt the Wordle first thing in the morning. Follow that up by checking the news. Today the news contained this- Ozzy Osbourne, Black Sabbath singer and godfather of heavy metal, dead at 76. Now I'm not a metalhead by any stretch of the imagination. Got into... Continue Reading →

Lockdown Playlist Part Deux

The lockdown playlist grows. These are the current songs looped on my phone and in my head. This is also an exercise in the using the Block Editor in WordPress instead of the Classic Editor that I typically turn to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9Dg-g7t2l4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xb3fZmkzy84 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gd_ohoPzYc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXnr-Dx2QaM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bx3s99FNXzI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9AaiVKfB58 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxcDTUMLQJI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiaOFOMPOBc&list=PLDA374CE45E0837D0&index=2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2ua3O_fdCY

The Non-Social Distancing Playlist

I play music when I head for my bath. And it's usually a shuffled playlist so things stay interesting. In any case, the playlist chose Springsteen's Human Touch and while I love that song, I laughed to myself thinking that it was so, so not right during the time of social distancing and shelter in...

I Get By With A Little Help From…

Music. Pretty much of all types but I have particular songs earmarked for particular situations or moods rather. There's a specific song for decompressing. The main reason this song became the anthem for situations where the walls seem to be closing in is because of its lyrics. It's beyond ridiculous. Utterly ludicrous. And that's the...

Discovering Barcelona-III

This was our last day in Barcelona. We decided to skip the beach in the less than balmy weather and spend the day in the Gothic Quarter instead. A good decision as it turned out. Browsing through a flea market, listening to street musicians and having a perfect lunch in a quaint, hole-in-the-wall place in... Continue Reading →

Nostalgia Endures

My father moved around a lot while I was growing up. And it was a good way to live, everything considered. Met new people every few years, or met the same old faces in different cities and towns and had a good time catching up. India of the late 80s was a vastly different place... Continue Reading →

Redemption At Long Last…

I don't always deal well with extended weekends where my kid's a part of the equation and Red isn't around or not going to be around to be a buffer. We, TO and I, get along well for a few hours and then I feel like asking his school principal to keep the school going... Continue Reading →

Mucho Loco Motoring

TO loves to dance. He does his own thang and is unabashed about it while at home or in any place he feels comfortable. He's lithe, has expressive eyes (which he widens mainly for more effect) and he loves to twirl, swirl and get his groove on. Any song he likes becomes our party track... Continue Reading →
