Place

There's something about place. It can be an exceptionally powerful thing.

Why I love the Internet

So, there is something taking place right this moment as I type that makes me love the Internet on so many levels. Let me back up for a minute....

Back in March of 1995, I was living with my dear friend Holly in Boulder, Colorado. We listened to music non-stop in that house. I miss music these days. I'm not sure how it came to pass that I don't have background music on all day, every day like the good ol' days, but I don't. Anyway, back to Boulder. So MTV's Spring Break show is blaring from the living room. I was in maybe my bedroom, I don't remember for sure, but I heard this voice unlike any voice I'd heard before. I had to go to the telly to see who it was. There was this dorky looking little skinny guy doing this goofy little dance, and my life hasn't been the same since. I fell deeply, madly in love with Dave Matthews and I love him just as much today as I did then.

So, the reason I love the Internet? Because I am watching a Dave concert live from the Beacon Theatre in New York on hulu.com. And I can blog about it while I'm watching that goofy little foot thing he does. And I'm feeling a bit twitterpated.
