I’m back

I’m waiting for Typekit to populate/propagate my font. I’m using Cooper. It’s been some time since I’ve blogged. There’s so much to say I don’t know where to begin. I’ll just chalk it up to a lost and found year. The font makes the webdesign. I have to finish rebooting things here.

As always, the design reflects things about my life too numerous to go into. For instance, I tried to de-clutter and get things squared away into a single-file simple column. I failed. However, things did get shoved to the bottom, all linky and soldier-like, messy in an orderly fashion, but overwhelming from a big-picture perspective.

The Sells-Jaros household is now just the Sells household. The Jaros household will be a household with someone else. Quite surreal. The Sells household is also without the beloved Pach Du. That was a devastation too great to be accounted for – [...]

Time isn’t holding up – My obsession with aging

By ~LS~ On August 25, 2009 · 2 Comments · In Random Musings and tagged Tagged With: Age

Ever since my return from Florida a couple of weeks ago, I’ve been hit with a wave of nostalgia. It’s made me reflect on my life and I’ve realized how much I’ve changed in the past fifteen years, some for good and some for bad. What I’ve noticed mostly, though, is that I’m obsessed with growing old. Not in an “OMG I have wrinkles” sort of way. It’s actually hard to explain the exact nature of my obsession, though. I never thought I’d live past 30. I had a deep-seated belief that I would die before then. I was shocked when that birthday came and went uneventfully. I know, I know, getting old is so far fetched to someone in their 20s. Today, though, it’s all I can think about. Given my doubts about my own existence, I should feel grateful that I’m even alive. Far too frequently, I feel [...]

The End of an Era – Deaths this year

By ~LS~ On August 7, 2009 · 1 Comment · In Pop Culture and tagged Tagged With: Age, Generations, Pop Culture

With the recent deaths of many of my childhood icons — Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson, Walter Cronkite, Ed McMahon, John Hughes, Bea Arthur – I got to thinking about the famous people who died this year. I remember growing up and watching the Oscars segment honoring those who the industry lost during the year. It seems like there’s more celebrity deaths this year than ever before. Actually, it’s probably more accurate to say I’m now old enough to recognize the famous people who are dying.

Curiously, Wikipedia keeps track of the deaths of “important” or famous people by month and year. I looked over the list for this year and I was amazed at how many Hollywood people I recognized. Some fascinating people died this year. I suppose they do every year, but this is the first time I ever took notice. I also noticed that there were great losses [...]

Pointless Cover Songs (or more proof that I’m hopelessly retro)

By ~LS~ On June 20, 2009 · Add Comment · In Pop Culture and tagged Tagged With: Age, Generations, Music, Pop Culture

I just saw one of the trailers for the new Fame and obviously there’s a buzz about the quality of the remake. I have some hope for it since it has Debbie Allen, Bebe Neuwirth, Kelsey Grammer, and Charles S. Dutton in it. I just like the original Irene Cara song, and Erica Gimple’s version, corny as they comes off today. The new version sounds generic to me.

I already talked about Seether’s remake of Careless Whisper. Since I’m on vacation, I decided to make a pointless list of pointless cover songs. Note, I made this list prior to finding the Covers Project, which is actually a pretty decent website. So….

My top ten list of pointless cover songs in no particular order

1. Anything by Britney Spears (goes without saying….)

2. Imagine by John Lennon, pointless cover by Perfect Circle
