"Canvas" - Imogen Heap
Maybe it makes me not so much sad as it does melancholy and descended into the darkened depths of my psyche...but I listened to this song and only this song for probably about a week or two after I first heard it.

30 Songs in 30 Days: Song # 3
"Something In the Water" - Brooke Fraser
This song makes me somewhat forget the fact that I spent the last hour cleaning up the overflowed toilet.

30 Songs in 30 Days: Song # 1
There's this thing. Called Facebook. A hot mess of social media madness. Sometimes it's tempting to just filter all of it away. But once in awhile a great viral video or hilarious status update comes through, or even better, people give you free virtual cupcakes. Whoaaaa
I stumbled upon a thing called 30 Days, 30 Songs. I love music so I think I will do it, but on my blog and not as a part of a fb group or community. This is day 1, and day 1 is your favorite song.
30 Songs in 30 Days: Day 1 - Your Favorite Song
"All You Wanted" - Michelle Branch
I'm not sure if I want to write too much about why each day I have chosen each song... I might every so often. For today I will just say that my "current favorite" often changes artist/band or genre even but I've always returned to this song and love hearing it every time. :)

Friday Foto & a little re-assimilation
More and more I've been realizing that to some, being able to experience other cultures, and perhaps even the desire to do so, is a tremendous blessing that not everyone is able to partake in. It may be the thing that finally breaks down this wall between "us and them"... Actually some people don't really even want to break it down like that. Which makes me really sad. There is so much more going on in the world, in the universe, even, that is bigger than decades of assumptions, ulterior political motives, discrimination, ostracizing, and a lot of other words that make your heart sad.
I made new friends who are absolutely amazing, and really wish I'd had a little more time to spend with them. All of the places we went and the sites we saw were beautiful, old, some, literally falling apart (the 4" bruise on my hip and my banged up knee are proof of this) but so full of history and heritage.
We took a day trip to see some old Roman ruins. While we were there it was time for the noon prayer.
We also were wonderfully serenaded one night by the local musicians. I could listen to it for hours. And I could have stayed there for weeks on end.
Happy Friday, and be the change this weekend, because it does start with you. :)

Mondoetry: Snippets & Tees
Ocean
her eyes don't smile
and her mind is somewhere else
at least i'm not the only one tonight
i know you need
to hear from me but i've
wasted all my energy believing you were right
in this calm calamity
while the nations watch
with sympathetic eyes
is this the web of my demise
and all of my tears
are drying me up inside
when all of my fears
are buried in this landslide
there is nothing we can do
we have nowhere left to climb
but these mountains
deep
deep
beneath the ocean
remembered by rhymes
or have we stepped outside of time

* tribute to the tsunami and earthquake victims from the past weeks, the latest being the one which happened in Japan.
* donate to relief efforts through the American Red Cross here: http://rdcrss.org/ekK3rr.
AND NOW...
for some not-so-somber news. I had the privilege and opportunity to help out the owner of a sweet t-shirt company, Sock Monkee, with their new 2011 spring designs via being in some shots for the Look Book. The shirts are sweet and have a nostalgic jetsons/retro/spacey comic feel to the designs and .. well .. they're pretty awesome. You just have to look and see. (psst that's not me in the pic but i think that shirt is my fave.)
