Unplanned Hiati!
Is hiati the plural of hiatus? Let me go check…. Answer: It is not. It’s hiatuses. OK then! Anyway, I had no planned intention to take an entire weekend off from posting here, but that’s what happened. Nothing major happened, just a busy … Continue reading
Tone Poem Tuesday
A longer post breaking this unplanned hiatus is coming, but meantime…here’s Franz von Suppe! This is not an overture, though: It’s a march called Fatinitza.

Oh look, tabs….
Ach! Once again, life on the home front has become very, very full! Nothing bad, but very busy. Posting here may reflect that. I’m trying to get a handle on it all, because posting content and writing are important to me–they’re my … Continue reading
