Monday-Type Music

I hadn’t heard this song in years until it came on my player today.  Felt like sharing, for anyone who’s feeling indie-emo on a Monday morning. New Amsterdams – When We Two Parted Share the post “Monday-Type Music” FacebookPinterestShare…Email Continue reading

Never Growing Up = Better Children’s Author? Hm. Makey Sensey.

I found an interesting article on author Margaret Wise Brown today, who wrote Goodnight Moon.  It spoke of how she wasn’t particularly fond of children, but was more like a child herself.  From the article: Is it possible that the most inspired children’s book writers never grow up? By that I don’t mean that they understand or have special affection or affinity toward children, but that they don’t understand adulthood, and I mean that in the best possible sense. It may be that they haven’t… Continue reading

Johnny Depp is a King Among Men

Movie Review: The Hunger Games

I’m not usually the reviewing type, as I can’t get a feel for most movies that come out these days. That said, the books were recommended to me a month ago, I read them all in a matter of a couple weeks (which is good for me in for recent years), and for the first time in a while there was anticipation about an upcoming movie tingling deep inside, although even deeper down I was pretty sure of inevitable disappointment.  We managed to score some… Continue reading
