GET THIS ON RECORD

OK so tomorrow is Record Store Day. Which is so perfect – because this past week I’ve been record shopping! Except…I must be honest. Not for the music. For the album covers! I’ve got some new ideas brewing for my living room – I think I’m ready for some changes! – and I’ve done a [...]

NIGHT AND DAY

I can’t say this has ever happened to me before, but I honestly wasn’t looking forward to the trip I just took. Usually I’m chomping at the bit for any chance to get out of town. This time… I had to be coaxed. I knew there would be hard parts, and I wasn’t sure I [...]
