Without Music Life Would Be a Mistake
Winter in Minnesota makes me want to hibernate, and I generally want to hunker down after the chaos of the holidays. Recently I looked into getting a Seasonal Affective Disorder lamp (some prefer to call them “happy” lamps). But it turns out they may not be a good option for me, as my family has a history of macular degeneration. Foiled again! But then I realized what was really missing from my life. Music. It had been weeks since I’d been to a show. And clamping on headphones and listening to music over my smartphone at my cubicle just isn’t the same. So I forced myself out two nights in a row last weekend to see friends’ bands. And it was just what the doctor ordered.
