I’m thinking tonight is a good time to share this little video ‘cuz it pushes my moody post down a bit and I may have some new visitors to this little blog. I certainly don’t want them thinking I’m a grumpy pants. :) I think of this song every year around this time and I’ve been patiently waiting for the leaves to start changing and Halloween to be near to post it here on the blog so others might appreciate it the way I do. :)
That Martina sure has a way of tugging at your heartstrings doesn’t she?
So why am I worried about new blog visitors you might ask? Because the incredibly sweet Kim over at Today’s Creative Blog has featured my little ‘ol blog today. Just because I made a little blinkie for her that I now get to display proudly here. :) I’m totally flattered and I hope her readers aren’t too disappointed if they drop by.
When I look at the list of blogs that she’s featured I feel a little like I’m back in high school and just trying to be part of the cool group but worried that my clothes aren’t cool enough or I’m not funny enough or my bangs aren’t big enough (oh yeah, that style went out years ago, didn’t it). :) I should probably go re-read my sweet friend Nancy’s blog post for today. :)
Speaking of music there’s some GREAT tunes on the blogpod. Like who hasn’t fallen in love with Ingrid Michaelson’s song on the Old Navy sweater commercial? And Natalie Grant’s latest release which I hope means a new album soon although I couldn’t seem to find any talk of one. Natalie’s got a pretty sweet website design too. Love checking out music artists websites. Courtney DeLaura posted about Rilo Kiley on her blog recently and ever since I’ve been hooked. Fun stuff. And then there’s a song called Falling Slowly that’s actually been in two movies that I’ve seen recently. This one, which was rather disappointing, especially for having a rather impressive cast but this one was really really good. The entire thing looked like it was filmed by someone’s dad with a handheld video recorder but I just loved the music and the story and, speaking of accents, I could listen to that strong Irish accent all day long. :)
Kay, back to work on blogs and probably watch the bachelor. I’m not really sure about it this year. I don’t have a strong favorite. I dunno, maybe this?…
That’s how I’m leaning right now but we’ll see. Dancing with the Stars I haven’t really gotten totally into this season. I’m still watching (sortof) but I’m a little bored with it. Bring on So You Think You Can Dance. :)
Have a great night!
