Plan Y to my original Plan B
When the treadmill at my house broke down for the second time, I joined Apple’s gym as an interim solution until the repair. However I got hooked on the convenience: location, everything was covered in the locker room and if something … Continue reading

This year is off to a bumpy start, dammit
My recent bout with Cedar Fever or a cold, I have no idea, took its usual turn for the awful, leaving me pretty bed-ridden for another few days. Somara working all the extra hours didn’t help since it helps to … Continue reading

A little inspiration to get my reading goals jumpstarted! Two music books I knocked out last year and then dragged on when it came to writing about them. The first is Record Collecting for Girls which is really a semi-autobiography and … Continue reading
