Some people are do-ers

by kate 6. January 2010 08:17

They think of something they want to do or need to do (or have always wanted to do) and they do it.

They find a way.  They make the time.  They stay up late.  They give up going to the gym or an extra hour of sleep or going into the city for the weekend.  

You can spot these people a mile away. 

Sure, they look a little tired but they're the ones with a certain glint in their eye. 

They are working ... on something.  They regret dinner invitations.  They bag going to the gym for the day or the week.  They don't call you back right away.  They *gasp* might not reply to your email within a minute or an hour or a day or a week or a month.

Then there's everyone else, with a million reasons not to do something.  There's not enough time.  They don't have the money.  It wouldn't matter to anyone but them.  It not worth it.  No one's going to care.  They can't do it perfectly so why bother.  Their parent's would think they are wasting their education.  Their friend's would think they'd gone AWOL.  Etc. Etc. Etc.

Which person are you?  

Which are you going to be?

NPR Song of the (Summer) Day

by kate 5. November 2009 18:35

In case you missed it, here's the link to "Take Me With You" - NPR's Song of the Day on July 15, 2009.

Out of all the songs on TGame, TMWY is the one getting the most attention.  It was a Finalist in the Jazz Category of the John Lennon Songwriting Contest.

Some people think it's the subject matter (unwaivering love, a do-or-die kind of love).  Me?  I think it is the big bad horn section that comes in during the two choruses. 

That's a bass trombone, y'all.  (Along with a few other things).  Works everytime!
