I think the vinyls have a certain, really cool sound quality that gets lost with the newer ways that music is produced.

I still have my first record that I bought when I was about 12 years old. Grateful Dead- American Beauty. There's a skip in one of the songs and whenever I hear that song elsewhere I always expect to hear the skip. Well not when listening live but if it's in a recording... I listen for the skip even though I know it won't be there.

I don't know if I've ever made a post about what type of spiritual system of beliefs I have, but I'm not Christian (although many members of my family profess this particular religiosity), I'm not atheist (although I have many friends who are), I'm not pagan either (although quite a few friends of mine are).

I'm not sure exactly where I reside on the spectrum of religious type systems of belief, but I feel that I might be agnostic in my spiritual orientation. And, in many ways, I almost feel like I am atheist.

I never yield to ultimatums ..never put me in a position where you challenge me in this way, you will always be disappointed

I have a "moderate" obsession with dollhouses and miniatures. I want to build and furnish one from scratch one day. I want to do a vintage model town as well.

The last time I ever went on a family hunting trip was when my cousin died by accidental gun shot. It's an indelible memory in my mind. Back then, I don't think any of the guns that any member of our families owned, were the type that had safety devices? Us kids were up on the hillside with our moms, watching all the males in our family dressing out the kill. We were so far removed from any place to speed my cousin to a hospital. Anyway, that unfortunate experience is primarily why I never went on those types of family type 'adventures' ever again, and primarily why I don't care for guns.

after the car accident I had with the semi that herniated my back, and created major soft tissue damage to the small of my back, I went belly up financially. I lost my good paying job, my expensive apartment, my fancy car, my morgan horse, etc.

I spent a few years living destitute. I barely had money for shelter, let alone food, lights, warmth. It was hardscrabble and I became mightily depressed. If not for my sister, I would have been homeless and that, my friends, is not an exaggeration.

One Christmas, someone on here, and forgive me for not remembering who, sent me a present, a lovely little make up box, that had a lid that lifts and closes, and locks. It was pink and see thru and it was filled with make up! I cried when I got it. It meant so much to me to have the trappings of being femme again, something I hadnt been able to afford.

well, I am back on my feet, and things look quite rosey in my world. I can afford it all now and while not making tons of money, I never do without again.

I use that precious make up box every day still, even tho its been years since it was given to me. And every day I remember that person's kindness. And wish them a wonderful day...

just wanted to share that today...

I have been told that I can be intimidating and I find that rather amusing when actually I am a softy, however I do tend to keep distance a learned thing.
