...is finally over. The work week, that is. Two people were out sick today, still no building manager. Some annoying paperwork that had to be done NOW. Got my 25-year anniversary silver pin at a meeting this morning, plus the traditional flowers (non-smelly in deference to my allergies; I was ever so grateful, as were my nose and eyes). At least the heat broke yesterday, thanks to cool Canadian air (the stuff we curse all winter when it brings snow and icy cold), and stayed coolish today. Makes things more bearable, and of course, the A/C worked fine today at the library for a nice chill.
Been listening to a variety of online oldies stations and some are pretty good. Even got to hear Bob Shannon, under his old (real?) name of Don Bombard, for a countdown show on RadioMax. Also good are Oldies 1360 (you need to register) and WJRZ 100. Just hearing jocks again instead of just the music was a real treat.
I think the heat moved over to the UK!
ReplyDeleteAs for oldies stations, we have a fantastic one here in the UK but it is just regional at the moment but growing rapidly.
It's also digital so that you can listen to it online too! It's called Saga (same as the old people's organisation!) but the music is fantastic. Best sounds from across the decades including today. But mostly I love the old movie and musical songs and some of the 60s and 70s stuff is so upbeat and cheerful and full of promise. And then we have some of the DJs from the pirate Radio Caroline days. Ahh.
I've actually listened to some British radio stations I've found online. I remember one I liked, played a nice mix of rock, but in the middle of the day here (night over on your side of the pond, I guess), there was a long talk/interview show, and I prefer listening to music at work.
