I'm not one who would usually air the family "dirty laundry", but I'm in need of support and good thoughts right now...

I've been dealing with a situation here at home with my spouse. She has become infatuated with Sam Heughn, the actor who plays Jamie Fraser on Outlander. She keeps getting messages on different platforms (Google Chat, Twitter, etc.) from people purporting to be...

So, kind of as a bonus today, here is the track that I was planning to share for yesterday, but moved it when I somehow forgot to post yesterday. The track is Hello, World! by Bump of Chicken.

Enjoy!

I can't believe that I missed yesterday!! So here you go, a day late....

Yesterday's track is Grilletto, by GARNiDELiA. My brain isn't working to remind me which anime this was used in, but agree song nonetheless.

Enjoy!

Today's selection is an older track from one of the first Anime series I watched (and collected!). This is Hemisphere by Maaya Sakamoto, from the series Rah Xephon.

Rah Xephon was one of the first series I watched, and at the time, I believe was being shown on Showtime. I eventually bought the DVDs of the series and the 'compilation' movie. Still one of...

This one may be a surprise, but definitely fits my anime theme. I've selected Breaking the Habit by Linkin Park. I remember the first time I watched this video. I was hooked! (Must be the Otaku in me!)

Enjoy!

This song is Enigmatic Feeling by Ling Tosite Sigure. I'm trying to remember which anime I was watching when I Shazam'ed this. I just like the beat.

Enjoy!

Now that my computer is back, the playlist resumes!

For Track 12, I'm going a little more upbeat with Keep On Keeping On by Hiroyuki Sawano's nZk, featuring Mizuki on vocals. This was used several times in the anime series Aldnoah.Zero. I originally saw this series on Netflix and was one of the best I'd seen in a while. It's now streaming on Funimation Now...

Well, my main computer is back and on-line!! Yeah!!!

So. you ask, what was the cause? Well, when I bought the computer last fall, I bought a memory upgrade (from 8GB to 32GB) from a 3rd party OEM supplier for Apple that I had bought from for previous computers. In the end, it turns out the root cause of all my problems was that one...

Well, with my computer woes from last week, I got some good news. They were able to recover all the data. That was my biggest concern (data loss), so I'm very relieved. Now, though, they have to go in and do the diagnostics and try to fix the OS. Hopefully in a day or two I'll have it back!

** major sigh of relief **

For those that have been following my Quarantine Playlist, I might have to stop for a few days. I somehow managed to mess up the OS on my main computer and am working to get my old computer back up and running. I am going to try and get a playlist item out today, but please be patient. I may not have my main computer...
