It's a Brave New Year
Well, I had something planned to blog about for my true "first" post of the year. But a sinus infection is setting in and my head is screaming. Of course, that never prompts me to get off the computer and rest my eyes, but it does remove all concentration from my brain.
So here's some random babbling to start the year.
I have to let you all in on one of my favorite places to visit. Linda G. at Visiting Reality is super awesome. She cracks me up, makes me think and I just flat out enjoy her sense of, well everything. Take a few minutes to visit her reality. You won't be disappointed!
I had a ringtone/crit contest a couple weeks back, and Roh Morgan won a full chapter crit. She actually sent two (after asking of course), but both combined had a word count of one small/med. one. Folks, she is a great storyteller. I really got hooked after that small amount. You know it's something good when days later you're still thinking about the characters and what might come of them!
Wow, I have 264 followers! Holy cow, I'm astonished by that. Thanks to each of you. I will be going through my newcomers tomorrow to make sure I have visited you and returned the friendship.
Maybe this next bit won't seem so random. It's Music Monday, so I have to do something with music, right? C'mon, it's my first "real" 2011 post. Can't. Leave. Incubus. Out.
Here's an interesting contradiction. Probably one of my favorite Incubus songs, but one of my least favorite live. It's obviously a hard one for him to nail. But, I love this version mixed with The Police.

Happy new year!

Thanks for the shout-out on my writing. It's nice to hear that the characters haunting me can go bother someone else for a while!
As for Incubus...what a great way to start the year. Thanks!
I have to confess - I wasn't into Incubus until my son (who is a huge fan) downloaded several albums onto my ipod. I found I really liked their music, and several of their songs are on my Watcher playlist (Love Hurts is in a major scene).
And then I saw them live. Wow. Nothing like being in an ampitheater w/ thousands of other Incubus fans singing EVERY WORD of EVERY SONG. Incredible.
Looking forward to a great New Year for all of us...
Hope your head feels better!!
You picked a really great song! I love it.
Like Incubus myself, enjoyed the read
Hope your sinuses are better soon! I know how miserable those suckers can make you feel when they're acting up.
I hope you are feeling better, love.
Brandon is so beautiful.
Happy 2011, my friend.
Love,
Lola
Thanks, everyone, for all the well-wishes.
It hasn't turned into a sinus infection as I'd thought, thankfully. But this ridiculous ever-changing weather is wreaking havoc on my head. I'm a human barometer, I swear.
Also, I just wanted to stop in and say thank you. I'm celebrating my blog's one year anniversary today, and you were a big part of why I kept with it.
Looking forward to a rockin' 2011. From the bottom of my heart, thanks! :D
