Playlist For Sunday, July 30, 2017: Damp Dreams

I can't seem to get revved this morning. Part of me just wants to crawl back under the covers, rearrange my 17 pillows atop my head, and go back to Dreamland. A sodden summer, a smashed bike trip, and I'm losing my tan. Poor Little Me. When reality crowds, nit-picks, adds calories and moss (on my north side), I dream.

So let's try to slay this damp dragon with 2 themes (well, it IS 2 on the Aisle, right?):  Dreams (the nice kind, not the type you have to analyze with your therapist, however alternative) and Summer (as in the REAL summer, 92 degrees in the shade, in need of an iced "something", sand in your shoes, everyone-in-the-pool, we-all-scream-for-ice-cream, Noxema SUMMER!). We'll have to pretend, esp. on that last one, but what is Broadway, if not the inspirational uplifter that it is? When I spin "Too Darn Hot", the sweat will magically appear on my brow and I will reach for a cold one. THERE!  Solved.

Yeah, I'm mopey. But I'll get in the mood. Just need another pillow.
