I love discovering old school music from the '70s or '80s. I always seem stumble upon it when I need it most in my life... and I end up thinking how they hell did I go so long w/o knowing about this artist or song! The last time I felt this way was when I discovered Georgette Heyer. I randomly bought one of her books at Borders and the rest is history...
Anyways, my newest love is Ms Dolly Parton. Yes, she's a country singer and yes, she has a cheesey/tacky getup. I def. had my own stereotypes and opinions, but she's amazzzing! She's an incredible song writer and her songs are so timeless..
..I bet you didn't know she originally sang this before Ol' Dirty Bastard sampled it
another fave
and finally..
Another Oldie but Goodie, John Denver. I always loved him, but until recently I haven't been a very loyal fan. When my comp. crashed I waited a full three years before downloading his music again. Luckily, I was able to catch an episode of The Office, and it totally rekindled my love for John Denver
these guys are so adorable!

stress
Lately, I've noticed that people handle stress in very different ways. People seem to crumble, become angry, or procrastinate, but there are those who accept the stress, and thrive. I used to think that stress eventually translated to frustration and then anger. Not true. After witnessing first-hand how much of a toll this type of behavior has on the people around them, I decided to make a conscious effort to try and prevent me from projecting my frustrations on others. Therefore, I'm going to use this blog as my own personal stress reliever. Hopefully, I'll be able to channel all my pent up anxiety/stress into something creative.
