A Wonderer's Notes

Hey all, I'm still here
Once again, I had every intention of posting something last week, but life got in the way again.
So my family went down the shore (which for those that aren't from South East Pennsylvania means the beaches of Southern New Jersey, which are filled with little island resort towns.). We've been doing that since I was a baby. Two days before going down I had my second round of Botox injections for my chronic migraines. So far its not working, but the Dr said that it could take up to three rounds to really take effect. We'll see. The wifi that was at the place we rented was a little wonky, but then again, the extender at home has been acting up to so who knows.
OF course while I was off there has been a lot action in the U2 world. A new song (or a version of) has been heard, and if you haven't caught it yet, get over to youtube before it gets taken down. I really like it! Its got a great beat and I'm digging the lyrics I could make out.
Also a very happy anniversary to Bono and Ms Ali. May we all be lucky enough to find a love like yours in our lives. (Yes, I know they will never read this, but I still wanted send the happy vibes out into the universe, so to speak).
And of course, lastly, the rumors are that the new album, Songs of Experience, will be out in either September or October. Selfishly I'm hoping for the middle of September because that's when my birthday is, but really, whenever it comes out, I'll be happy.
Now, as just a side note, when people judge too harshly on new music that they hear. I was out doing yard work that needed to be down way before when I was doing it, and I was listening to my music library on random while working. Now, if I had to pick a least favorite U2 album, I guess it would be NLOTH, just because its the one I listen to the least. I don't dislike it though, and it doesn't contain the one U2 song actually don't like (that's actually on one of my favorite albums, Pop. The song is Miami, BTW, but that's something else). Anyway, a song starts that I at first don't immediately recognize, and I said to myself, "hmm, that melody is pretty."
The song was White as Snow. I probably hadn't heard that song in over a year, and suddenly I had a whole new appreciation for it.
(And just so you know, I've given Miami multiple chances...for some reason, I still don't like it.)
So, you know, that album you didn't like, or that song that you just didn't vibe with that first time you heard it, give it another listen. You might change your mind. You might not, but you never know.
Next post should be coming much sooner, and its a really lighthearted one. Its also a wee bit embarrassing for me, but you know, that's a part of life.
