Der Grosse Sprung, 1927

It would be easy enough to sink into the dark depression of despair and doom during this drab, dull time of year…as a matter of fact, I think I am mere footsteps from it even now!  Some bright spots of positivity illuminating these sunless winter days have been:

† giddy phone calls from friends, announcing “it’s going to snow tonight” (in Florida!)

† full service massages from The Man, with all the bells and whistles

† unexpected packages, full of tea, music and random delights -  (thank you BGF, it arrived today!)

†  my Converse One Star Rose Burnout Scarf that I picked up at Target for a song, on a whim; it’s so pretty, and I had no idea it would get so much use!

† A new to me, but relatively older band …very pretty jingly jangly shoegazey early to mid 80’s pop, but sort of on the darker sider.
For Against. I am enjoying them immensely!
