Getting spotty

I've been going through a second adolescence lately. Funny since I'm now in that "mid-life" range but whatever, we each have our own pace. So here I am on top of the hill, figuring out what I like, what I'm good at, what's good for me and trying against my very nature to cultivate enough order to support becoming the person I want to be when I grow up. I'm super fortunate to have a lot of time at my disposal for this purpose so I figured it was only right that I find some ways of giving back. Lucky you; queue the music!


After gentle prodding from a highly esteemed friend, I installed Spotify. And while I have major issues with the catalog (where's the Polish hip hop? Why isn't Huggy Bear licensed for the US?) I do enjoy combining new (to me) stuff to with old favorites to make soundtracks for my dailies. Assuming I have a lot more time than you for this digging and sorting, I figured I could share a few playlists with you. Who knows, maybe you'll like some of what I like and maybe you'll find something new to you too?

Let's kick things off with a little hodge-podge that, much like my present creative endeavors, may or may not end up suiting anyone else's tastes. But that's really not the point, so...

Mad fun deux


Without further ado, the results from our first try:


So let's keep it going. Next up:


Need help with those grammar terms? Try this.

Now make nice & give us some words in the comments.

Mad fun!

Like Mad Libs? Wanna do one with me? Cool, here's the plan: below are the words I need for the first one. Check it out & post a comment with some words. Don't be a hog, save some for others.

What? Oh, good point, you may well be the only one reading this. In that case, check back & give me some more words if no one else is playing. God, I hope I'm not talking to myself again...


Been a while since you watched Schoolhouse Rock? Need a refresher on parts of speech?

Noun - person, place, thing (for Mad Libs, thing works best here, honest)
Adjective - describes a noun
Verb - action word
Adverb - describes an adjective or verb usually ends in "ly"

Once I have all the words I'll fill in the blanks and post a picture. Thanks for playing!
