Mel’s Monday Musings: June 8, 2020

June 8, 2020June 8, 2020 ~ melstery

I've been keeping a Covid-19 diary (not particularly faithfully; slightly less often than once per week at this point) with stats and my impressions, etc. just in case it has historical value/interest someday. The entries are usually hurried, more of an afterthought, but life is kind of like that these days, scattered and demanding, so … Continue reading Mel’s Monday Musings: June 8, 2020

Mel’s Monday Musings: February 24, 2020

February 24, 2020 ~ melstery ~ 1 Comment

Hey there! How are you? Surviving Monday? It was almost unseasonably warm here today, at 45F! As nice as it was to walk outside without a coat, I won't mind when winter returns Wednesday night or so, and am hoping we get every bit of the snow they're predicting on Thursday and then some.

July 27, 2017July 27, 2017 ~ melstery

These are troubling times, friends, at least if you're American and not glued to 45's terrifyingly incompetent ass. Yesterday, he announced a ban on transgender men and women serving in the military in any capacity. He followed that up later with an all-caps statement that in this country, "We worship God!" (Wake up, non-Christians! He's … Continue reading It’s Time to Speak Out. Where are You?

Advancing on the Tide (from the FB files)

June 22, 2016 ~ melstery

I used to think that being isolated from the world at large would be terrible. I have come to that turning point when I most often crave less interaction, fewer headlines (and less blood boiling all around), not more. I kinda had that pegged for age 65ish, not 33. Huh. And yet...responding less, speaking out … Continue reading Advancing on the Tide (from the FB files)

Reposted from @snowpatrol We are so glad to announce the rescheduled dates for the US / Canada acoustic tour. We’re so sorry that it has been rescheduled many times. Looking forward to seeing you all again out on the road in the US and Canada.

Written after musing on my poor reply when asked why I never tried to start a band...my fellow creative folks will understand.
