Nick Hornby Songbook - by Nick Hornby - This is a small compilation of comments and reviews and discussion about new and old songs, and includes a compilation CD. It's a bit wordy for me, but here and there a sentence or thought rings so true, that it was worth the read. I have this plan where I'll look up each song (they aren't all on the CD) and listen to it on You Tube. And maybe I will. I've listened to the CD three times this afternoon while sorting through last year's paperwork and files, but didn't really hear a thing. They were all ballads, and I have a feeling that the lyrics are going to be most important when I relisten. Which I'll have to do, because I agree with him on just enough music to make it worth my while. Then we'll see if any of these tunes ends up on a Dianne playlist. After all that, all I'll have to do is figure out who gets the book next. Any takers?
Her Heart On Her Sleeve: I live in a suburb north of Chicago, and I read, bead, make jewelry, sew, watch TV and movies, crochet, craft, decorate, go to house and garage sales, walk and go on beach walks, listen to music, take pictures, cook and bake, read, and write about all of it on herheartonhersleeve. I have a companion blog called Jewlery by Dianne Sophia at diannesophia.blogspot.com where I write exclusively about my jewelry.
Jewelry By Dianne Sophia: I have been collecting vintage jewelry since I was a girl growing up in Detroit, and have been designing and making jewelry for 15 years. I love to work with pearls and crystals, semi-precious stones, Sterling Silver and Gold, along with vintage beads and materials. I delight in combining shape, pattern and color in new ways. I'm inspired and influenced by my travels and experiences as a reader, writer, photographer and student of life. My blog herheartonhersleeve.blogspot.com chronicles my life in art and popular culture.
