Weekend Shuffle

Posted on November 5, 2013 by sheila

“Heroin” – The Velvet Underground & Nico. From the “banana album”, which scared the shit out of me when I first heard it as a teenager (long after the band’s heyday). It still scares me. But I love the sound. … Continue reading →

Sunday Shuffle

Posted on September 29, 2013 by sheila

Beautiful fall weather. Busy as hell. Here’s some music. Shuffle never ceases to delight me. It forces me to accept what comes. Playlists are great, too. But the randomness of Shuffle is so pleasing. “If Teardrops Were Pennies” – Porter … Continue reading →

Wacky June Shuffle

Posted on June 14, 2013 by sheila

Here is the ongoing Shuffle I’ve had running for a couple of weeks. I pop in and out of it, as I travel by bus, by car, or take a run along the cliffs. The Shuffle is eternal, always waiting … Continue reading →

Holy Week Shuffle

Posted on March 29, 2013 by sheila

I have been reading like crazy, writing every day, exercising every day, and pushing many projects forward, with my sheer force of belief in them. This is challenging but it’s also the only way. It requires a belief in the … Continue reading →

Accepting the Random-ness of Shuffle

Posted on March 15, 2013 by sheila

It’s been a difficult month. And a good month. My mother was here with me for a while, which was awesome. I have been reading a lot, writing a lot, watching a lot of movies, and working hard. The Shuffle … Continue reading →

iPod Shuffle

Posted on January 24, 2013 by sheila

“Canary In a Coalmine” – The Police. God, I was so obsessed with them in high school. I love this song, and I remember it seemed like the height of sophistication and intelligence that I understood the metaphor of the … Continue reading →

Sandy/Athena Shuffle

Posted on November 7, 2012 by sheila

Been consumed with other things this past week. I have had way too much free time (office closed, no Internet, isolated from friends, although close by to them), but I have spent it mostly in watching movies and reading. Oh, … Continue reading →

Shuffle

Posted on September 30, 2012 by sheila

“We Like to Party” – The Venga Boys. This, to be clear, is the “DJ Disco Mix” version of the all-time classic “We Like to Party”. Pat McCurdy sent me this CD years ago and I have no idea why. … Continue reading →

iPod Shuffle: 8/20 – 8/24

Posted on August 25, 2012 by sheila

This week was a life-changer. I signed with a major bicoastal literary agency who want to represent me, my play, and my burgeoning (really?) career. This has been the culmination of years of work, but it is also just the … Continue reading →

6-State Shuffle

Posted on July 15, 2012 by sheila

5-plus hour drive yesterday as I drove through New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, and New Jersey. It was a New England kind of day, where you can pass through multiple states in one day. I am freckled and … Continue reading →
