Playlist For June 3, 2018: Summa Time!

I know, I know...it's not really summer yet. But doesn't it FEEL like summer? My curtains are wafting in the breeze, I'm reaching for ICED coffee, not the Turkish, hotter than hot, cut with a knife kind, myriad insects are trying to crawl into my house, and my finger is 2 cms. away from the AC button. I think it's time for some summery Broadway, doncha think?

Lazy Afternooning with Kaye Ballard, and long Summer Nights with Barry Bostwick, and gritty city simmering with Night Song and Sammy. But then my brain fried with the sudden heat, and I went off on a themed rampage: Why! Sweet! Swing! Yup, that's what happens when the electrolytes evaporate and this dizzy dame actually gets dizzy. A fun, if eclectic, show!

And to celebrate Summer, and its nearness (to you AND me), I'm presently having my car decaled with pink and black bubbles. By a professional. You know how it would look if I did it myself! So I hired. It will look magnificent. So if you see a silver Subaru, with hombre eyelashes, foaming down 390, you'll know it's me! The wacky 2 On The Aisle lady.  :)
