Melody's Musings

Stuff that catches my fancy and random, sorted thoughts from the inner scrambles of my mind.

What you may expect to find here are what I consider good taste and some of the best in photography, philosophy, humor, art, architecture, food, music, poetry, literature and dance. I hope you like some of the things I enjoy.

I like anything to do with good design such as interior design, architecture, photography, and art. I enjoy philosophy and psychology. I love to figure out what makes individuals tick. Music of most all types but particularly classical, world, pop, acoustic guitar is a big part of my life and add some dance to the music and my day is great! I like to write and occasionally I will write poetry and I really love to read it out loud and I even record it sometimes.

I'm a Myers-Briggs type ENFJ which means I love people and have a great interest in them.

I guess you could say I'm a humanities kind of person. :)

    Andrew Bird
    ’s brand of indie rock doesn’t sound like anyone else’s. The violinist, singer, and film composer uses digital delay and electronics to blend the sounds of pop and chamber music. He’ll play songs from his new album, “Break It Yourself,” live in the Greene Space.

    Andrew Bird - “Imitosis”

    He’s keeping busy, yeah he’s bleeding stones,
    With his machinations and his palindromes
    It was anything but hear the voice
    Anything but hear the voice
    It was anything but hear the voice
    That says that we’re all basically alone

    Poor Professor Pynchon had only good intentions
    When he put his Bunsen burners all away
    And turned into a playground a petri dish of single cells
    That would swing their fists at anything that looks like easy prey
    On this nature show that rages every day it was bound,
    A part his intuition
    To say we were all basically alone

    And despite what all his studies had shown
    What was mistaken for closeness was just a case for mitosis
    Why do some show no mercy
    While others are painfully shy?
    And tell me doctor can quantify
    ‘Cause he just wants to know the reason, the reason why

    Why do they congregate in groups of four
    Scatter like a billion spores
    And let the wind just carry them away?
    How can kids be so mean
    Our famous doctor tried to gleam
    As he went home at the end of the day
    In this Nature show that rages every day
    It was bound apart his intuition, Say

    We were all basically all alone
    Despite what all his studies had shown
    What was mistaken for closeness was just a case for mitosis
    She fatal doses, malcontent to osmosis
    Why do some show no mercy
    While others are painfully shy?
    Well tell me doctor can you quantify
    The reason why
