The Baroness, delicate flower that she is, is very tired. She had many late nights out, way-y-y-y past her bedtime, in the lake-besotten state of Minnesota. Oh, ya.
And now, whilst I know I should be sparkling and travelogue-y and bursting with stories, I'm instead dull and lifeless. Rain checks all around on sparkly for tomorrow. Promise.
I feel kind of lazy doing this - I've never done this before - but meh. I'll get over it soon. I hope you'll be able to move on too.
And because people, for some strange reason, want to know the music that I'm listening to, I will divulge the rockin' travel tunes I loaded up before I left:

. Hold Me Closer, Tony Danza - Elton John
;-) And you didn't think we were paying attention...
Peace - D
Countess Momma: Oh, you are a clever boots, Miss! I thought I would throw that in and that it would be glossed over completely. Who knew there were such thorough readers? I'm delighted!
The scary thing is that 90% of these songs are on my player, too. You rock woman!!!
Countess NATUI: You so funny! The only time I rock is in my car, and on the treadmill. Most of the other times I lounge. Or MOR it. Ya. I'm old. Deal with it.
Indeed cool that we share the same taste in music - I believe my family calls it eclectic. I just call it me.
Great tunes! Every time I hear What's the Frequency Kenneth? I think of poor Dan Rather...
Oh, and Milkshake has to be the best song ever. Just ask my kids how much they loooove hearing me sing along.
Countess MPM: You may love the regular "Milkshake", but you really haven't lived until you've heard it sung in the dulcet lounge tones of Richard Cheese. I suggest you hasten to his website and take a listen.
And I added that REM song because of Dan Rather - he's kind of sexy in a brainiac/sugar daddy sort of way...
I LOVE Richard Cheese. I had Baby Got Back stuck in my head for a full day last week. I only have one album though. Need the rest. Immediately.
Countess H: Welcome! I just discovered Mr. Cheese through a fine fellow on my blogroll, Bubs over at Sprawling Ramschackle Compound. Imagine my excitement when I found out you can order him through iTunes! Now I have a marvy little toe-tappin' sampling. This make the Baroness v. happy.
I LOVEEEE Richard Cheese ... great stuff!!! And don't think your little Tony Danza song slipped past me -- also a fave! ....Babs Peapod
Countess Babs: Well, who's the eagle eye? Kudos for your mad observational skillz. I heard 2 house painters sing those lyrics once; it just cracked me up.
