Going through some records today on this lazy Saturday. Mostly lazy because I'm shirking all sorts of responsibilities and tasks that I really should be doing. Listening to Ella singing some of the greatest songs ever written reminds me that every once in a blue moon I should really slow down and just be human for a little while. It also reinforces my rationale for visiting thrift stores and coming home with $.25 gold in dusty, basementy smelling piles of mildewed records needing a bit of cleaning, some new record sleeves and plastic protectors. I just spent 45 minutes in a different place, a different time and I didn't even leave my couch except to get this laptop. The song I was looking most forward to on here? Blue Moon. Nobody sings it like Ella... nobody.
