The “Damn, I Forgot The Title!” Week That Was

Here’s Bing Crosby for the Edsel from Ford Motor Company. At your Edsel dealer!

It’s been a busy week. There are always a lot more blogs to read at this time of the year, and I’ve been doing my best to get to everyone while maintaining this writing schedule I’ve set for myself. I can’t imagine trying to do this and hold down a responsible job. I sound like I’m complaining, but really, I’m not. The A to Z Challenge is still the highlight of my blogging year.

There are rumors of things starting to get back to normal. I’ll believe it when I see it.

Here’s the summary…

This week, we finish with letters W through Z. Hang in there!

Monday was Mary’s birthday, so I built a playlist of the Top 15 songs of the year she was born. She says “thank you” to everyone who wished her a happy birthday, whether here or in your heart.

This week’s encore was Patti Page, who was quite popular, whether you were a pop or country fan.

The one-liner was about making decisions on where to go to celebrate something when everything is shut down and you’re self-isolating.

I discussed a number of recent purchases we’ve made since being stuck in the house.

The prompt was a word that started with “val.” I immediately thought of Julian Lennon’s first album, Valotte (1984), and talked a litle about him after playing the title track.

We finish the A to Z Challenge with a flourish on Thursday, meaning I need to prepare my Battle of the Bands for Friday. Tomorrow on M⁴, songs about angels or songs with “angel” in the title. The rest of the week, who knows? Probably a lot like last week.
