Don't Mess With My Bedtime!

I'm really awful about changes in my schedule. The same weakness irritates me in others, but I can't stand having my routine changed unless it was my idea. I worked late tonight and now I can't go to sleep. I should be home, have dinner, bath, quite time to read, quite time in bed with lights out to watch the evening news, and then sleep. this job has me doing things in the wrong order and now I can't sleep. Argh.......

I've decided to try and write one personal Sting fact per day between now and our big Police reunion concert in Dallas on June 26. This may be way more than you want to know. So, I'll either put it at the bottom of posts with other content, or warn you in the title that it is a Sing only post.

Here we go. Fact #1: The first album I ever bought was Dream of the Blue Turtles. It was still in the vinyl days. I never purchased any Police material until after the first Sting solo album. The song that made me want to buy the album was, "Fortress Around Your Heart."

More on this album tomorrow.

Sting, the Police and Gray's Anatomy (Spoilers)

First, and most importantly, Sing will be in concert here in Texas on June 26. My daughter and I will, once again, have the pleasure of yelling ourselves hoarse in shear fun. It's a Police tour. I'm not sure why they're doing the whole old guy reunion thing, but it means we get to hear/see Sting so we fan-girls are happy. I don't know why I was never all that interested in the Police at the time they were so popular. I've only learned to like many of the songs because of hearing them live at Sting concerts. But, still..... so happy.

I'm going to miss some, if not all, of Gray's tonight. I have to work. Meredith is there drowning in the icy cold water. No doubt McDreamy, McSteamy, or someone else interesting is going to have to bring her back from the dead, and I'm going to be missing the whole thing. Damn. Y'all, I'm ashamed to admit that the whole "house wife" thing had its perks. (cringe) Both husband and daughter have sworn that 1) the eppy will be taped in its entirety and ready for my viewing pleasure and 2) I have a back-up as it will repeat on ABC online this week.

Thank you to PJ, Woolwinder, and others for finding your way back to me after the big move from typepad. I'm still getting the hang of this whole incognito thing. It seems weird not using our names, but you know us anyway, so just insert at the proper places. And, if you have any suggestions, for making it less lame, please let me know.
