#SongoftheDay Dream Come True (Frozen Ghost)

By
It's pretty unusual for my dreams to have a soundtrack, but last night's did.

My dream was supposed to be some kind of TV show. I don't know whether it was a crime drama or what, but there was this couple and toward the end of the dream, some hucksters were encouraging them to enter this room. All the cool kids were doing it, that sort of thing. Go in the room. Just go in the room.

When we, the viewers, saw inside the room, it was a dull, dark place. Other people were in there. Other couples, I'm guessing. They weren't being tortured or anything. That's what I'd imagined I was about to see: something really horrific. But it wasn't horrific. It was just quiet and boring.

Sorry to provide way too much insight into my decimated psyche, but I think this dream was supposed to be about marriage. The narrator (my dreams don't usually have narrators, but this one did, being a TV show and all) kept mentioning engagement rings and proposals.

Anyway, I woke up with this song in my head. I'd always assumed it was called "Love of My Life" but apparently it's not. It's called "Dream Come True." Kinda funny, considering I dreamed it.


If you're wondering how you can support me in bringing you songs and anecdotes, the easiest thing you can do is buy my books (most are for adults only!) or check them out from your local library. 

Supporting my AudioErotica endeavour on Patreon would also help me hugely.

#SongoftheDay Ladies Night (Kool and the Gang)

You know what I would love to find? Information on menopause and menopause-related topics aimed at trans and nonbinary people. In case I haven't mentioned it lately, I am genderqueer or nonbinary or something (still haven't found a word that resonates with me, to be honest). When I want information about vaginal dryness and I get a YouTuber talking about "us ladies" and our "lady parts" I feel like I'm covered in slime (which would probably help, at this stage). This delivery is not for me.  I try to power through and ignore the "lady" stuff because menopause is terrible and I need information, but I find I just can't handle it. I need inclusive information. I need information that doesn't send me packing. Maybe there are resources out there for people like me and I just haven't found them yet.  If you're wondering how you can support me in bringing you songs and anecdotes, the easiest thing you can do is buy my books (most a

#SongoftheDay Blue Velvet (Bobby Vinton)

By

My partner and I went to a barn sale (in large part because I wanted to find out what a barn sale was) (my partner kept saying to me, "But I don't want to buy a barn..." har-dee-har-har) and the barn turned out to be stocked with actual antiques as well as items that might not be old enough to be technically considered antiques, but were certainly old enough to be considered nostalgic and/or "before-my-time." The barn owner was selling a couple of juke boxes in stunning condition. When we approached one of them, it was playing Blue Velvet. I wanted to take my partner in my arms and dance him around the barn (I always end up leading if I don't consciously allow him to do so) but the guy selling the juke boxes came over to show us the internal workings, how the records played, how he'd repaired them to get them back in working order, etc. It was all very interesting (I love juke boxes), but the conversation wasn't condusive to romance. We left withou

#SongoftheDay You've Made Me So Very Happy (Blood, Sweat and Tears)

By

I can't remember if I've told you this story before, but talking about the movie Better Than Chocolate the other week brought it to mind: Many years ago, a TV network here in Canada would air Canadian short films late at night. It was a half-hour program, but the shorts would generally be under five minutes long.  The only one I remember was a comedic short about a butch lesbian who couldn't stop sweating, especially when she laid eyes on her crush. I specifically remember the character shoving maxi pads under her arms to keep the sweat in check. I have tried and tried to track down this short film, but with no luck. I'm guessing it was the 90s when I saw it, which would mean I saw this short before I saw Better Than Chocolate. I loved this short a) because it was funny and b) because it was a film featuring a lesbian but it wasn't a film about being a lesbian. It was a film about sweating buckets. (Particularly relatable now that I'm perimenopausal, but tha

#SongoftheDay Girls on Film (Duran Duran)

Now that my voice has finally returned to me, I've been driving my partner nuts with the constant singing. Poor guy. He had to suffer through my performance of this song tonight while we washed the dishes. Thing is, I only know the chorus, so my version of the tune is just:    Girls on film, Girls on film, Girls on film, Girls on film, Girls on film, Girls on film... et very much cetera If you're wondering how you can support me in bringing you songs and anecdotes, the easiest thing you can do is buy my books (most are for adults only!) or check them out from your local library.  Supporting my  AudioErotica  endeavour on  Patreon  would also help me hugely.

#SongoftheDay A Bushel and a Peck (Sharon, Lois and Bram)

By
Image
Apparently this song is from Guys and Dolls. I've seen Guys and Dolls a number of times on stage, but I don't remember this song being in it. I do remember hearing Sharon, Lois and Bram sing it on their TV show when I was a kid. This is exactly the kind of song I want to share with my granddaughter. I can't remember if I told you that we've spontaneously burst into song a few times--my partner, my stepdaughter and I--to entertain our granddaughter. Technology is amazing. We can sing together even though we're on opposite sides of the planet. We'll have to sing this one. The trick is finding songs we know, all three of us, but it turns out there are many such songs. We even tried Row, Row, Row Your Boat in a round. My partner loves a round. Reminds him of camp. If you're wondering how you can support me in bringing you songs and anecdotes, the easiest thing you can do is buy my books (most are for adults only!) or check them out from your local library.

#SongoftheDay Press My Button (Lil Johnson)

YouTube seems to have decided I only want to listen to suggestive songs from the 30s from now on. This one is from 1938. Like most things, it makes me think of menopause. My whole life, these days, is illness and menopause.

#SongoftheDay Hideaway (Randy Moore and Cindy Smith)

By

A rare treat from the 1987 movie R.O.T.O.R. which I have seen many times, courtesy of RiffTrax.  Most of what I do when I'm ill (aside from sleep) is listen to RiffTrax or old MST3k episodes I have seen a million times already. I find them comforting. Not really sure why. Possibly because MST3k got me through one of my worst depressive periods ever. Laughing when you are severely depressed feels amazing.  When I'm sick... I don't know. When I'm sick for extended periods, life begins to feel pointless really quickly. Being able to laugh at something (inwardly, this time, because laughing out loud brings on painful coughing fits) does tend to give me the feeling that maybe life is worth living, even if I'm not completely sure why.

#SongoftheDay Postman's Knock (The Albion Band)

Yesterday I was telling you about stamp collecting. The reason my partner and I were talking about stamps in the first place is that a friend of his used to collect toy cars. This friend recently sold his entire toy car collection and decided he was going to collect stamps instead. My partner and I were talking about collections and collecting, and it occured to me that there's nothing I collect and there's nothing I feel inclined to collect. I enjoy that other people have fun collecting things. I'm not anti-collecting. But for me, having grown up in a hoarder home, the idea of collecting is kind of mashed up with accumulating. I know there's a difference, but I have a compulsion to get rid of things rather than keep them. But, you know, if I HAD TO collect something... I mean, stamps are small. They don't take up much room. Although, having said that, I bet there are stamp collectors with rooms full of stamps. If you're wondering how you can support me

#SongoftheDay Asshole (Denis Leary)

By

After days of not being able to leave the house due to migraines AND salmonella poisoning (what a combination...) I finally went out to buy a few groceries. I often use a walker to get around, and that was the case today.  On my way home, there was a snooty rich lady standing in the sidewalk so that I couldn't get by. I asked her if she could move and she didn't even look at me, just took the slightest half-step forward so she was still blocking my path. There was no way I could get by her with my walker. She also had a dog. Her dog was completely blocking my path. I asked her if she could move her dog and she didn't even acknowledge my existence. She did not move her dog.  It's always bothered me, being treated this way--being treated like I'm so inconsequential that I'm not even worth acknowledging--but I think it bothers me in a much deeper way when I'm using a mobility aid. Because I feel like... you've got no excuse, world. You look at me and you kn

Time Out

Seems like only yesterday I was taking time off this blog due to COVID. Now my partner and I are both quite ill and I need to take time away again. We both spend most of the day sleeping. All my awake-time is devoted to caring for my partner right now. I want you to know how much it means to me that you come here to read my words. I love sharing music and memories with you, and I will return as soon as I'm well enough. Even though we've never met in the real world (unless we have and I don't know it), you mean a whole heck of a lot to me. Take care, Giselle   And, as always, if you're wondering how you can support me in bringing you songs and anecdotes, the easiest thing you can do is buy my books (most are for adults only!) or check them out from your local library.  Supporting my  AudioErotica  endeavour on  Patreon  would also help me hugely.
