Bee is taking a few days off to attend to the matters at hand. See ya soon! on 43 Things

(I am supposed to be working…....shhhhhhhh…..pretend you don’t see me here….......I deserve a little break don’t I? As I am getting busy with “matters at hand” I am grooving, VERY, VERY, VERY loudly, windows and doors all open no less…a little neighborhood concert, but it’s OK, my neighbors love me…..with XM Radio. I am tuned into the XM Cafe, channel 45. I just heard a song by this person called Jem. It was sooooooo lovely! Never heard of her, but she is a gem. And NOW they’re playing the Bare Naked Ladies for the next hour on the XM Cafe…LIVE! That band so much fun and they exude such positive energy….....WOOT!!!!!)

Jem, “It’s Amazing”, I dedicate this to the amazing SG who is a gem in her own right:

OK, I have to get back to work….you didn’t see me here, in case anybody asks…........OH! Gracie baby, I am also drinking Pomegranate (sp?) juice with vodka. A first. I thought of you when I bought the juice the other day, because you inspired me to try it. It’s quite, quite tasty, and has been a rather effective stress reliever as I attend to “matters at hand”. Chin chin sweetcheeks! Clink!

(Bee disappears to further attend to “matters at hand”....waves and blows you all kisses.)

Today's groove: (read all 10 entries…)

Today's Groove 8/19/08 1 day ago

Today’s Groove comes at you courtesy of Altan, from county Donegal, Ireland. I have had the privilege of seeing them in concert a few times. The energy in the room is palpable, the music travels up and down your spine and gives you that tingle of pleasure that good music always does. Very entertaining, witty, extraordinary musicians, and when Mairead Ni Mhaonaigh sings in Gaelic it’s beautiful, it doesn’t matter whether or not you understand the lyrics. They are secondary to her voice.

WTMW: Welcome to My World (a random musings forum) (read all 6 entries…)

Welcome to My World the "The World is Golden" edition 1 day ago

My mother and I were sitting in the living room ca. 6pm the other evening, chatting. I had the door and all of the windows open. As we sat there enjoying each others company, glasses of wine in hand, Billie Holiday on the stereo, I noticed a strange, ethereal, golden light begin to glow outside. We went out to look, and everything was bathed in this extraordinary golden light! There was really no way I knew of to capture it in a photo but I tried. The glow faded, the sky grew darker and darker, and then it poured rain for a while. We watched it from the big picture window, silently (my mother is rarely silent so this was also extraordinary)except for Billie’s crooning. After it stopped we went back outside to find another gorgeous sky, purple, blue and pink this time, and a double rainbow! I was not able to capture the double rainbow very well either, but this was weather at it’s most glorious and dramatic. I like dramatic weather. The evening was topped off by unexpected BOOMS! Around 9 o’clock the sky had cleared enough for a firworks display to began in town to commemorate an important day that this area celebrates every year. (I had forgotten about the celebration in town.) We jumped into Mom’s car and raced down the street to a nearby church parking lot, which was directly across the way from the field where the pyrotechnics display was set up and being launched from. We had a perfect view. Mom, wine, Billie Holiday, golden light, double rainbows, and fireworks, all in one evening. Pinch me….......
