Return to main

As much as I bandy about lots of words inappropriately, including the word "bandy", I've surprised myself with how I don't use the word "obsessed". I'm clearly in denial because I have problems with The Truth and other bothersome details of life. But today, I present to you no less than three obsessions not named Isabelle that are currently making me a difficult person to converse with these days:

1. Inspector Lynley series by Elizabeth George - Yes, these are books. I'll give you a minute to take that in. I'm calling this an obsession by the mere fact that I've read 9 books of this mystery series in about a month and I DON'T WANT TO STOP. This is in spite of other facts, namely that I don't find Elizabeth George to be that terrific of a writer. But she's a pretty good plotter.

2. Meme Si (What You're Made Of) by Gregory LeMarchal and Nolwenn Leroy - This is a combo platter of English and French lyrics and weirdly enough, it's the English sung by Nolwenn that has me all obsessed with this song. The reason is that this French woman has no trace of an accent with her English. It fascinates me to an atmospheric level. Her voice comforts me greatly which makes me wonder if the whole Nolwenn Effect has any merit. This was a study that some supposed scientists did on how music can balance us and Nolwenn Leroy's voice was the tops in balancing old people and children. Oh hey, I'm just kidding. I don't put any stock in "scientists".

3. Tamara Taylor - Dear Jesus God, where has this woman been all my life? She's an actress on Bones and you'd think that it'd be impossible to see anyone else with the extremely gorgeous Emily Deschanel on the screen. BUT NO. I have to go there with the Cam character. Dear Jesus God, what a voice....and other things.

Enough bandying things about. I have books and tv and one single song to listen to.
