I have fallen in love. With a new to me band. They are called Oceansize and I love them so much I want to have their collective British babies. I would birth fat little sixteenth notes of passion and bright, swollen with so much angst and joy I would tickle them nonstop to keep the gorgeous noise coming. Music has such different effects on people. For me it's like a drawing salve. Anything that's mushed or clamped down in me gets released when the right musical remedy is applied. My favorite music, like this stuff, pulls my guts right up against my skin giving me goosebumps and making me feel my heart beat in my ears. If it doesn't make me want to move or cry, it's not worth listening to. This song does both, it's not for everyone but is does it for me.

I DIDN'T KNOW...
About being BLONDE or being a BLOND
The word was reintroduced into English in the 17th century from French, and was for some time considered French; in French, "blonde" is a feminine noun; it describes a woman. "Blond" is an adjective that refers to the hair itself. A man can have blond hair but he is never a "blonde".
Though many writers of English use the spellings interchangeably,[2] some of them continue to distinguish between the masculine blond and the feminine blonde[3] and, as such, it is one of the few adjectives in English with separate masculine and feminine forms, at least in written language. Each of the two forms, however, is pronounced the same way. American Heritage's Book of English Usage propounds that this particular use of the term is an example of a "sexist stereotype [in] that women are primarily defined by their physical characteristics."[3] (Another hair color word of French origin, brunet(te), also functions in the same way in orthodox English.)
