Magic Music Passion

I haven’t posted in months, due to many reasons, none of which anyone probably cares much about. Recently, though, I started a new blog, which is focused on music.

Talking to Yourself

When I drive to and from work, I listen to podcasts. It makes the trip go faster, and allows me to focus on something other than the traffic. It also takes my mind off the day’s events if it was a rather difficult one. Quiet Time But sometimes I need to shut everything off and [...]

I Could Write A Book

Well, couldn’t we all? Well, I really can’t. I don’t remember details. There are topics I CAN write a book about, as many people have told me I should, but the damn problem is — I can’t remember details about things! Maybe this blog will help me remember. I know this stuff is in there, [...]
