For Monday, August 15: Happy Together

Oh my gosh. The Nylons! I totally forgot about them until my bestie, Jodi, thought I needed a little Nylons on the experiment! She was SO right!
I appreciate a good acapella group. I appreciate the blend of harmony and melody. I appreciate the sounds and noises that acapella groups can make with their throats, tongues, and whatever else. My brother, Paul, sang in an acapella group in High School and did a show in College that was acapella. Admittedly his performances in these groups made me appreciate the art of acapella so much more than I think I would have otherwise.
The Nylons are still together and still performing around the world. Many of the videos on YouTube are from 2010.
Long live acapella! :)

Happy Together

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.

Call it a Day

The literal use of this phrase hails from 1838 when the phrase originally was "call it half a day" to mean leaving work early. (source) The modern use of the phrase is to indicate ending something due to false sense of accomplishment.
