Take That - The Flood

And here we are today...or at least at the start of Progress...ain't Markie cute?

Take That - Back For Good

Now do you remember this? Ain't Markie cute?

Take That's "2 year break"

There has been numerous reports in the press the past couple of days that Take That will be taking a 2 year sabbatical from making albums (which in Duran sabbaticals is almost laughable). Different websites claim different reasons, everything from exhaustion to Robbie's ego, but nevertheless, it's got me to thinking is it a good thing for bands to reform with their original line up? Sure the fans clammer for it and it's a guaranteed crap-load of money if they can hold out through that first reunion album...but creatively, is it the best thing and can they recapture their original magic? For those of you who don't know who Take That is, Wikipedia them, it would take too long for me to explain. I wasn't a fan of theirs in the 90's, mainly because we only had one single of theirs in the States, "Back For Good" (which I do remember and did like, and I do remember drooling over Mark even then). That was pre-internet, so my access to music was limited...

Midsomer Murders Series 1 & 2

Now that all the blog creating is finished (at least for now), I just finished the first and second series of Midsomer Murders, only 11 more to go! I had planned to spend this evening watching the second series of Hex, but my normal Monday order of Amazon UK didn't arrive today for some reason, so no Hex series 2! At least by finishing Midsomer Murders, it did keep me away from watching Jane Eyre for the 100th time! I'm on a Michael Fassbender kick right now and Hex was also keeping me away from Jane Eyre while still satiating the Michael cravings. The power of OCD! But I digress, Midsomer Murders, a review...for my lottery win future, I typically crave the London life, until I watch shows like this, and then I think of the villages, with their thatched-roofed houses, huge flowered gardens, wide-open country sides, small little shops and quaint pubs. You just have to look beyond the murder, blackmail, addictions, sexual depravity, and other lovely little secrets! I found...

Mickey And Friends Progress

These were taken with my cell, so the quality ain't so hot, but this is the project I've been working on. I've been side-lined for a little while because of a secret project for someone else, but I should be getting back to this one shortly. It may seem like I'm posting alot in my first day, but I am actually testing out various methods of posting with pics and vids and what-nots!

Darren Hayes - Black Out The Sun

Can't get enough of Darren's new song and keep playing it incessantly!

First post!

This is my first blog post and I'm hoping all will go well!  Facebook just isn't for me because most (o.k., all) of my "friends" don't like the same things I do, so it's useless for me to post updates about my life since they just don't get it.  I've created a blog for me to share what's important to me to no one in particular (might sound sad, but there is a method to my madness).  I'm going to be posting pics of my cross stitching progress, books I've read, movies or television series I've watched or am watching, music that's important to me, and other random musings about nothing in particular.  So, here goes, and wish me luck!
