Spotify

My girlfriend recently told me about this great website Spotify, where you can listen to an album in its entirety -whoops-a senior moment-I meant CD. For my friend it was an opportunity to check out the new Rhianna CD, for me it was an excuse to revisit my 20's ...I was in Heaven on Friday- as the snow blanketed the countryside I listened to George Winston's December. I was suddenly back in Boston seeing snow for the first time in my life. Being a Southerner, the closest thing I experienced to snow was sticking my head in the ice maker of the Holiday Inn-I loved the cool air, the quiet and the relief from those sticky, breeze-less Florida  summers. I was so enamored with this site that I was sure that my husband would be too. On Saturday morning I put on Steely Dan's AJA CD. As jazzy sounds played in the kitchen, my husband's rumblings could be heard. He blew his top at Black Cow and actually turned off my computer...OK-it's true I do change the radio station when his old French favorites come on - but I  am tolerant in other ways...Is this what they mean "For Better and For Worse"? Marriage is about compromise, (preferably him compromising and me agreeing that he should)so rather than try and persuade him of the musical merits of "Aja" (a true departure from previous albums which were much more rock), I shall happily listen to my old albums when he's not around. I'm pretty sure he would have more to say about : Little River Band, Joni Mitchell, and the Doobie Brothers...and as we used to say-"Keep on Truckin..."
