Absolutely Random...

Music is my sanity. It is the one constant in my life, even though my tastes are ever changing. No matter what mood I'm in, there's a song to fit. No matter what song I'm listening to, my mood transforms to fit. I think that I could spend the rest of my life without a book, movie, or television as long as I always had my music.

Music has always spoken to me. I can read beneath the words, and feel the lyrics. I get goosebumps if a song touches me, and I have been known to cry at many sappy country songs. (Be quiet, I can see you rolling your eyes and laughing at me!) I find that I have a wide variety of tastes from rap/country/alternative/pop etc. If there's a song you want me to hear, then I'll always give it a try. As long as you're willing to do the same for me, and give my music a shot. In fact, Right NOW I want you to go to Itunes (or whatever you use) and download the following songs/artists. You don't have to like or love them, but just give them a go....ready?

Now, these are mostly songs I've been listening to tonight, so there is obviously a theme in the type of song. I hope you listen and enjoy them. I will be posting more later in this blog. Feel free to send me suggestions. I listen to everything except polka/jazz/elevator music. I just am an avid lover of music is all. I thought I would share my passion with you.

The other thing I'm passionate about is photography. I'm not great at it, but I do give it my best shot. Some day I hope to open a studio, or even do freelance work. For now, I just have my Rebel to take fabulous shots of my sweet baby girl. We'll see what life has in store for me. We'll see what the cards hold. For now, I'm just living life, writing blogs, hanging out, and enjoying life.

Let's see where life takes me next.
