I am seriously slacking, y'all.

And I know this. I am slowly but surely trying to pull myself back into bloggy mode. I do love it when I can make it happen....but when there's nothing to say, well....there's really no point.

Which brings me to today. I don't have much to say here, except that finally, after a little over two years, my son's braces are coming off. Yay! I have one son's Christmas present bought already. Yay! And my other son's will be ready next week. Yay!

But I think the thing I'm most excited about is that tonight is the night for new episodes of both Criminal Minds and American Horror Story. I love all the tv shows I'm currently watching, but AHS is my absolute favorite!

I do have a post planned (well, planned in my head) for publication at some point, but until then, I think I'll just gush over Jessica Lange a bit. In my opinion, she absolutely STEALS the show. I was going to post my favorite scene of the week, but can't find it ANYWHERE. It's the scene where Constance tells Billie Dean to just cut to the chase - very closely rivaled by the scene where Constance tells her boy toy he'll never be famous - but every week, there is a new Jessica Lange scene to rave about, and I can't wait to see what she'll do this week!

In the meantime, I'm over at The Music Mamas with another edition of "Whatever Happened To...." Wednesday. You know you want to go over to find out who was featured! (Hint: popular in the mid 80s, but NOT a hair band or cheesy pop.)

Exhaustion sets in

Prodigy, Eristoff Invasion Festival, BangaloreI took a bit of a posting break after wrapping up my Countdown to Halloween posts, and I needed it. The store is now gearing up for Christmas big time, and this past week has been a whirlwind of work, housework, more missed television, and lots of driving.

Oh, and the Foo Fighters/Social Distortion show!

I'll be getting to that later (I'm actually hoping to get my friend Laura to write a review of it, since they're her very favorite band, and she is really good at describing all the right moments that can really "take you there."), but today I'm over at The Music Mamas with my first edition of "Whatever happened to..." Wednesday. This week, I'm writing about The Prodigy, one of my favorites from the 90s that I mistakenly thought fell off the face of the planet after their massive success with 1997's The Fat of the Land. I think you'll be just as surprised as I was at how much they've been up to since then, so be sure to go check it out! And while you're there, feel free to leave comments suggesting another act to check up on.
