The Neighbor Wars. Having a hard time with this part of it for some reason. Haven't had a nightmare about it in a while, so that means I will probably have a really good one soon. But that is okay.
I have had such a weird week. Things feel sort of unsettled, like there's a shoe up there waiting to drop on me. Maybe it's just the weather. The two youngest children are coming home soon from their freshman year, though. That's a fun and happy thing!
Hey, want to know what I learned on Facebook the other day? Barry Manilow is cool! This is a happy thing, too. I see a greatest hits CD in my future, fired up on my little white car's sound system. It's hard to get much cooler than that. In honor of that, I shall post three of my favorite Barry Manilow tunes. I mostly like the old ballads. And listening to them after all this time makes me wonder if he had some kind of horribly sad youth or something.
That one is not about what I thought it was about when I was 10. What a sad song.
Here's another one:
I always loved that one. Bore absolutely no relevance to my life, but I guess I was kind of a melancholy kid sometimes.
I did understand this one when I was a kid. This one might be my favorite. Or maybe it's the first one. No, the second one. I can't decide. Some of the comments under the video are heartbreaking and sad.
I wanted to end on a happy Barry Manilow note, but I can't find a happy one that I can bear to put on my blog. I must just like sad Barry?
Anyway, Neighbor Wars. Working on it. I have to get my blog writing program working properly again (I'm composing in typepad at present and I hate the font) and then we're all set.
