Adventures with Dr. Lady Cutie Troublemaker

Life is in flux BIG TIME these days. I want to keep in touch with all of my peeps. The Internet is this beautiful thing. I can move to a brand new city and still stay in easy, near-daily contact with the people I love. When I feel connected to the people in my life that matter, I am unstoppable!

Need a Lift?

By Abby at 11:35 am on Sunday, April 13, 2008

I was feeling a little low energy yesterday (Mr. Pollen, it really is time to go) and decided to stay in. I didn’t have much on my TiVo I felt like watching, but nowadays, I don’t need TV to have something good to watch. Instead, I watched The Carolina Chocolate Drops recent concert in Amsterdam and Al Gore’s recent Ted talk about the climate crisis. A seriously uplifting evening of viewing, and it was all free, thanks to my glorious interwebz. If you’re so inclined, I offer my evening to you, next time you’re feeling uninspired and need a lift.

My favorite song in the set is “Hit’m Up Style”. You can easily get to that by going straight to the direct concert page and double-clicking on Track 17. This track has this intense driving rhythm and a powerful kickass vocal. Check it out.
