:)

Downloaded these using my library card this week via the Freegal Music application. You can download three songs for free a week and keep them.



[this album version does not have Futuristic's rap that is on the released for radio play version]



[a fun little song about being who you are and loving who you want]



[a classic--I'm working my way through the Original Cast recording]

I stumbled into an '80s mood

because I was reminded by my Freegal application on my phone that I had three free songs to download (via my library card, three free songs to keep each week), and decided to look for the Murray Head version of 'One Night in Bangkok' for some reason. So I played it on YouTube, and then followed the suggested videos around. So here is the first and last song I listened to:





(I prefer the German to the English version--I was learning it then--I had four semesters of it.) I also had Peter Schilling's album with the German and English versions of 'Major Tom'. Oh, drat, I'll include that too, so Nena isn't really the last.



Okay, I think I'll go listen to some Imagine Dragons now and come back to the present. But there are times I miss the '80s.

Home from the game

Listening to 'Hold On' by Kansas, Best of Kansas

which I got through the Lexington Public Library, which uses the Freegal application to allow you to download songs (three a week) and keep them, or stream their catalogue of music. I've been diligently working on the songs from Best of Kansas of late.

Yesterday I paid my rent and picked up a couple of books on hold at the library, and then went to a friend's house and did 17 things on a list, various errands and activities there. So I was pretty busy. I came home about 10 pm and pretty much went to bed, getting up at 5:30 am to work on the game notes, and then going back to bed about 7 am. I kept hitting snooze, and finally got out of bed by about 8:48--and still needed to shower, gather my laundry, etc., so I called to let them know I'd be late and started getting ready. I got there about 9:45. I watched some episodes of 'Wizards vs. Aliens', which is actually quite well done. Then I started on my weekly chores, where I help get the house ready for the game. After that, Brenda came over and we played. I still have a couple of things to do which I can do later, maybe tomorrow. We had a good game. I have two characters who are unfortunately bonded due to a magical ritual and they are in danger of totally merging and shattering, like two sides of a mirror. We think we know a way to save them. I hope we do. as both have children, and I am very fond of each of them.

Well, it's 11 pm. I've taken my nightly medicine, gotten comfy, etc. I suppose it's time to go to bed. But first, what I'm listening to (the last two songs):
