Musica, a big chunk of my life

The hills are alive with the sound of MUSIC ! Ok, so maybe I don't know about the hills, but my living room is pretty much always alive with music. I just can't seem to get enough. It is a RARE occasion the day that I go without listening to music. Occasionally, if the song gets me on a high, I dance like crazy while singing the song at the top of my lungs. Its just THAT wonderful. I really can't imagine my life without music, which leads me into the next somewhat negative part of my post. I go on YouTube here and there, but I wouldn't call myself a youtuber. Anyway, I was on there a couple days back and I see an ad for a brand spanking new music video from an artist.

Lately I have been going to the Madison public library to check out books and movies. Well I went there yesterday to return some things and there was a booth that said Summer Reading on it. I see a bunch of kids in line waiting to sign up and then I notice that there is a line for adults to sign up as well. So I go up to the booth and ask the lady "What's this for?" She said "summer reading". I said "What's that?" She said "Oh you can read books and get prizes. Are you over 18?" HA. Of course she would say that. I say "Yeah". So I stand there for a couple of seconds and I think about it. I think- Why not? I've been getting into reading lately and it could be fun. So I signed up. The lady gives me a free bookmark, a lae and a little booklet that explains the whole thing. I also get a shot at winning a CD of some kind. I think to myself-yay for free stuff. It turns out that for every 10 pages you read it equals 1 "de
