In Which one can still feel the cold steel of the Dell brand laptop...

Good evening, kind friend, dear reader of this present post! How are you? I hope you have been well? Of course, do let me know! And how is the weather? Much to my relief, where I am at, it is still partially winter, it has been hard to say when winter will end and I would be certain it is spring. It did not rain as much in this season, alas, and I adore the rain.  I did not have the most productive of days yesterday, the last Saturday of September 2026. In fact, I was exhausted, I slept through most of it. And, what else to do? I could not bring myself on doing anything. No desire to engage in any game, no mindspace for drawing, and I could not write either. I just slept. A dear friend mentioned perhaps I needed the extra sleep, so it is what it is.  I was thinking of a song, which is the one part of the piece of Pelleas et Melisande, this time done by my favorite composer, Gabriel Faure.

Song of the week! In which we swim to the ocean floor

Hello again everyone, it's so weird how this Friday feels like Saturday already! Here I'm again, now to bring y'all the song of the week! Today, my recommendation brings Madonna back, and one of her most successfull albums: Ray of Light (1998), which also happens to be the year I was born, a very nice coincidence!


It's being a very unusual winter this one I'm having, very hot days, not enough rain, which gave me an idea on what tune to highlight today: Swim! Okay, the song doesn't have much to do with enjoying the water or the pool, instead is one subtle one who talks about sadness and escaping, literally swimming to the ocean floor, in order to run away from all the troubles. It can sounds a little dark, but I promise it doesn't feel too much like that, it's a really nice song and I loved it! I totally recommend it to you guys! Let me share it with you!

And that's it for this Friday! Wish you all a really great day! I see you next time!
