So Melancholy

It's been two months today since my dad died.  I can't shake this sadness in me & it seems to be getting worse, not better.  On top of missing him, the whole mortality thing has really done a number on my mental well-being.  Yep, I can feel myself spiralling into another midlife crisis as I type -- can I get a sarcastic "yay," please?  Alas, instead of me kvetching about my woes, I'm going to listen to some Joplin & ponder if "Kick-Ass 2" will be a decent enough movie or not...

A Very YouTube Passover

Well, the seder at my mom's been cancelled tonight, so I'm doing what any good jew would do instead... scour YouTube for Passover-related videos, such as these gems:

Bob Marley performing Exodus live in concert


Aretha Franklin's cover of Elton John's The Border Song


Los Diez Mandamientos (a.k.a. The Ten Commandments)

Hello to my 3 Subscribers

Haven't posted in awhile.  It's not like I'm wallowing away in grief over the loss of my dad & avoiding all outlets of communication -- that's so February of me.  I've just been steering clear b/c I've been so busy w/ volunteer work at Claire's school & only finished clearing out my dad's apartment last week.  (BTW, I'm working the Scholastic Book Fair at PS 196Q all week long, so stop by if you're 'round.)

Any old ways, I missed "Shameless" last night to watch "The Walking Dead," so I'm gonna post this now, so I catch tonight's airing of the show.

While I'm gone, enjoy the theme song of "Shameless" by the High Strung, "The Luck You Got."
