Talk about muse overload! Our daughter turned 21 last month and as her birthday present we all took a trip to New York City! She’s a music performance major and she has big dreams, including performing in NYC. Read the rest of this entry »

When I was growing up waiting for movies like A Charlie Brown Christmas or Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer to be broadcast on network TV was a very big deal. How many of you remember the TV Guide when it was still in black and white? And then came the thick color one, where you could look up all the shows coming during the next month, what channel (like we had so many… NOT!) and what time. We waited and watched, and if something happened to make you miss the movie, it was gone for an entire year. That’s like a decade to a kid.

Did you ever visit a city and fall so in love with it you felt like you must have lived there in a past life? Or were simply drawn to some indescribable piece of it? The culture, the smells, a certain park or shopping mall?
I’ve had a life-long fascination with the city of Chicago, starting when I was very young and we traveled there to visit my maternal grandfather’s family. Last month, my husband I took a trip to Chicago for our wedding anniversary. It was the first time we’ve been anywhere alone together overnight that didn’t involve our daughter or a band function, since before she was born. We had a fantastic time!

Save The Drama For Your Mama, Llama

Would you run in your underwear?
Recently at the Galivan Center in Salt Lake City Utah, thousands of people stripped to their skivvies and ran in protest of what they termed “uptight” laws in the state. There are pictures on Yahoo if you care to look, although you must first realize they won’t be much different than what you’d see on the beach…except for the political slogans some folks wrote on their bodies. Salt water and sand tend to wash off anything one writes on one’s body at the beach.

Good morning everyone! My name is Carolyn Rosewood and I’m a new contributor to Blame It On The Muse. I’m thrilled to be part of this talented group.
One of the things I look forward to every year is attending The Nutcracker ballet. When I lived in Cleveland Ohio, not only did I attend this holiday event, but for many years I had season tickets to the now-defunct Cleveland Ballet. I love the intricate moves and the graceful line of the dancers. The costumes and scenery amaze me. Read the rest of this entry »
