In Which the Blog reach 950 posts! A lovely Holiday Season approaches!

Good morning, my dear friend, and I wish you a happy Wednesday! How are you, this fine hour? As for me, I am okay, just waking up, really. The weather here is one of quiet transition, to spring. I can still use thicker blankets, but the days are longer, and the sun is more bright. Not exactly a good thing, I don't like summer, that is approaching. The only saving grace is to have Christmas season also upon us, the season of 2026! And all the memories of happy summer vacations, with the christmas trees and the great deal of lovely santas around it. Grandma used to go all in for the decor. How I miss it... I pray I can emulate it, when I can. Today, grandma is 82 years old, she is aging, as it rarely can be helped. She is tired, and she lives in an apartment nowadays, as such, she does not do the Christmas stuff as vigorously as some years before, alas.  There is no such thing as forsaking the long holiday tradition just because "times changed", whatever that means.

Song of the week! In which the author tells the reader some bedtime Stories

Good Afternoon of Friday to you, dear reader! How are you today? How are things going? As usual, I wish you the best! I'm so happy to have you here today on this song of the week Friday! As you know, I'm having a dream week, and the song we're seeing today of course is going to be related to that! We're having our known and dear (though only in our hearts, she's not too dear actually, and proud of not being a dear, but ANYWAY, LET'S SEPARATE THE PERSON'S PERSONAL LIFE AND BEHAVIOR FROM THE PERSON'S WORK PLEASE)  guest: MADONNA, so we can join her in her album BEDTIME STORIES, so we can have a BEDTIME STORY!


As you guys know, this very overlooked album by her is very close to my heart, the whole aesthetic of it fits me very well, with the pastel colors and subtle sounds and sleepy soft reference, definitely eye candy and ear candy as well! This song is absolutely fantastic, being very unique and inventive, as also is Madonna, no one can say she's not unique and inventive, she can pick everything, even saturated themes, and make them fresh and interesting, with no hint of Cliché or tacky, even if the "everything" in question includes cliché and tacky things. Anyway, it's a very soft and subtle song, with an R&B background and a relaxing, sensorial hypnotizing eletronic beat, one of the best pop songs I heard in the last 10 months, I can get tired of it sometimes, but I never 100% stop listening to it, it has it's safe spot in my mind! I think you might like it as well, cause who knows? Give it a chance if you want to, you're totally invited to do so! And if you want to look for it but don't have Spotify do not distress, I have the Youtube link to it right here!
