Country

I've been listening to a lot of Country music lately, due to a malfunctioning CD player. Am planning to remedy the malfunction with a new player as the old one is 6-8 years old and would probably cost more to fix that to replace. Will be keeping the old player for tape deck function.

But the Country music thing is rather new to me. I used to think I hated Country, but I'm coming to like it. Is it that the Country on the radio is more like pop, or that I'm living in a big, urban area, and the lyrics to some of the Country songs remind me of the "down home" small town values I grew up with? Or is it just that I never used to feel the need for a good cry, but now, when I do, Country is sure to trigger one? :) Whatever the reason, I did some cleansing crying this morning.

I also had a discussion with M. about one of our on-going topics. We have several on-going topics, and one of them was keeping me up last night, worrying, so I thought it was time for further discussion.

Had a small hitch in tax prep, but was able to solve it on-line this afternoon. I've slowed down a bit on my momentum with all that, but a day's worth of focused attention on Monday should bring it to conclusion.

Cough is much improved. Am looking forward to work and social engagements over the weekend. Will be out of the house and away from computers most probably until Monday afternoon. Will report then. :)
