friday i'm in love (the movie & music edition)

July 24, 2020 Arlene Giddings

So….this is not really a love or a like…
just an observation so far
but Google Play (music)
is switching to YouTube music…
I’m not sure how I feel about it yet.

I listen to music daily..
even more now that I work from home.
It plays in the background all day,
in my car, all night when I sleep.

The only time I don’t listen to music
is when I am going for a walk.
I want to hear “outside” when I am outside.
Also, I am afraid to wear headphones
in public because I am afraid
I will sing out loud
and nobody wants that.

I have different playlists for
activities, moods, holidays, people…
and my tastes range from
a to z
and almost everything in between.

I am currently loving:
♥ angus & julia stone

♥ paper kites

♥ dermot kennedy

which kind of leads to a movie
that has completely stuck in my head
but mostly
because of music….

Rudderless

I adored this movie.
Billy Crudup
Anton Yelchin (who I might have the tiniest crush on)
it was sweet and thoughtful,
funny and interesting
AND OH THE SOUNDTRACK.
they do a cover of
the wheels on the bus
that I absolutely loved….
it’s not quite the same on the OST
but sooooo great in the movie….

and the song
sing along
breaks my heart every time.

I love movies about music…
got any suggestions? :)
or whatcha listening to?

friday i'm in love...

February 23, 2018 Arlene Giddings

♥♥♥
i have finally seen the movie Wonder
and i will tell you right now,
it did not disappoint.
i am not going to lie
i sobbed my way through most of it
but...a good kind of sobbing...
if you know what i mean...

♥♥♥
week 2 of 52 drawing labs book project...
check in on Sunday to see how it went

♥♥♥
yoga with adriene youtube videos...
for those days when i just can't make myself leave the house.
(cause, you know...winter.)

♥♥♥
neil gaiman.
i am seriously crushing on neil gaiman.
i want to be neil gaiman.
really.
my obsession with him right now
could qualify
as unhealthy.
(and if, by some cosmic twist in a bizarre but benevolent universe
he happens to read this blog post
or comment on the associated tweet,
i will most likely self combust from happiness...)

♥♥♥
i feel like a lot of us should read this...
more than once.
or ok...i feel like i should be reading this...
like once a day...as a reminder....
because i do all of these things.
i try to balance but
it's so easy to slip back into old habits.

♥♥♥
maggie's getting married!  are you going?  you should!
(and sidenote...i really miss not being involved in a play this year...
i was surprised by how much i missed it.)
