In the Background

What song are you listening to right now?

(I generally work in silence, so I'm listening to the wind and the fountains outside.)

  1. Not listening to music. I don't usually unless I'm driving. I hear the man preparing to install my bathroom linoleum, cars driving by, and my dog barking. It's the first time he's barked at anyone working on the bathroom. Should I believe he's uneasy with this one?

    1. I would definitely listen if the dog felt something off, but it could be something innocuous like a weird sound he's making or he's doing something just different enough from the others who have worked on your bathroom.

    2. He said he had a "bunch of dogs at home." He didn't feel well and left early. Someone else came who'd been here before, and Mickey was fine again! Maybe he could smell he was sick? The researchers say dogs can detect COVID now, in addition to lots of other things.

  6. No song here, tv is on. However, one of the first things I used to do when I sat at my desk to work, I turned on the radio. I cont for years to use an actual radio, not my phone and still do. But no song here right now. However, yesterday I was in my BR cleaning and listening to the Bee Gees on the record player. Getting that old sound to my music.

    1. You still have a record player? Oh, you must show off what vinyl albums you have. I'm sure your blog readers want to know. (I want to know.)

  9. I like silence! I can't even work with music on without becoming distracted. Having said that, when I sit outside with my laptop in the summer, I sometimes listen to music from the Monday weekly blog hop I am a part of. If not, I'm listening to bird song.

    1. Yeah, I can't concentrate with music either. (I know, a weird question to ask, then.)

  10. No song right now, but I'm getting ready to write (just stopping by Blogger real quick). When I DO write, however, I will play classical music on low.

  11. Indie tunes on YouTube/Spotify/Alexa. I like the hidden gems that Indie music offers. At night I listen to the sounds of old trains chugging down the tracks. Lulls me to sleep most of the time.

  12. I listened to all sorts of music nonstop for decades. For some reason, I'm happy with silence much of the time these days. Meanwhile, my husband's constant need to play podcasts while I drive us anywhere sometimes gets on my nerves. Heh... Be well!

    1. Talking in the car? For some reason, that bothers me. I can do music while driving, but not something I have to pay attention to, so I feel your pain.
