Night, the beloved. Night, when words fade and things come alive. When the destructive analysis of day is done, and all that is truly important becomes whole and sound again. When man reassembles his fragmentary self and grows with the calm of a tree. ~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Took a night off tonight, just to veg out and sit around. I have to say, it was awesome.
It isn’t that I want to sit at home, alone, every night… I just want to do it on occasion. Have some time to myself. To sit and be.
I’m tired of being tired. I’m too tired to add to this… fill in the thoughts. Extra hours of the day wanted for sleeping. kthxbye
I love music. Sitting around and listening to music late at night has to be one of my favorite things to do. Easily.
When I was in high school and in college, I had plenty of extra time to listen to tons of music, find what i liked, find other music like what i liked and just really put together a good collection of things I wanted to and enjoyed listening to. Now, not only do I not have the time to sit around and listen to the music that I enjoy, but even when I find that time, I don’t have the music I want to listen to… because I haven’t had the time to find the new things that I enjoy hearing.
Sure the old music I have is great and wonderful, but I tend to feel that the music we like or identify with grows with who we are. I’ll listen to the old stuff and really enjoy it, but I find myself not connecting with it the way I did when I found it, when I identified with it, I guess. I need some time… to let my music collection grow and catch up to where I am now.
Can I get a little more time… Please?
I never know what books to read. I usually stand around in bookstores (and airport stores) and read the back covers and first pages until I find something I like… It hasn’t really been an efficient system and friend recommendations have been hit or miss. This morning I heard about a site called “Your Next Read.” Supposedly, I can put in books I like and find a recommended best read based on those.
I have a few vacations coming up this summer where I’ll have time to read. I’ll let you guys know how it works out for me.

Today is a day of remembrance for the 1.5 million lives lost during the Armenian Genocide, which took place beginning April 24, 1915. Please take a moment to remember…
Last year I wrote a series of posts on the topic that you can see here:
-
Part 1 – The Armenian Genocide
Part 2 – What Transpired
Part 3 – Recognition of the Armenian Genocide
Part 4 – A Survivor’s Account of the Armenian Genocide – My Great Grandmother.

I’m tired.
That is all.
There may be a small chance that I have some sort of a crush on Alvin… of the chipmunks.
Saw the squeakquel, reminded me of when I used to watch the cartoons all the time as a kid.
