Today is Thursday, which means it’s time for a My Own Way post! I don’t know about anyone else in Duranland, but I’m still exhausted from yesterday! I am way out of practice when it comes to video premieres, first single releases, apparently. I have never heard my phone as active as it was yesterday,… Continue reading Invisible, maybe…but also alive!

Rhonda’s new Thursday topic. It’s anything she wants it to be. :D
Before it all changed
I know everyone is obsessing over the new single, “Invisible” today. You should be. I certainly am! However, on Monday evening, it hit me that everything I thought I knew about Duran Duran was about to change. One more tiny piece in their puzzle was about to be added. The moment seemed, well, monumental in… Continue reading Before it all changed
Her Name is Rio and She’s Having a Big Birthday!
Can you believe Rio is 39? I am struggling to reconcile that concept. I would swear I just turned 30…. It just doesn’t seem like that album has been a part of my life for that long. I still remember the very day I bought it. I can remember the excitement I had when I… Continue reading Her Name is Rio and She’s Having a Big Birthday!
We Have to Live
Tuesday evening and yesterday were rough. I had gotten some pretty terrible news when I went to band rehearsal that, unfortunately, has been hard for me to work through. I’m hoping that doing a podcast about it helps. If nothing else, it serves as a good reminder that we are guaranteed not a single moment,… Continue reading We Have to Live
Roger in the Katy Kafe!
Anybody need any highlights from Roger’s visit in the Kafe this month? I’ve got them for you right here…and if you listen, you might just learn a little bit about an item straight from my own bucket list! Enjoy! -R
Fitting It In
How can a week be both monotonous and crazed? That’s how my weeks have felt. On one hand, I swear it is like living in a never-ending reel of “Groundhog Day”, but at the same time, I feel so busy! Things were fine when we were staying at home all of the time and I… Continue reading Fitting It In
Taking a Break
Every now and then, I need a reasonable breather. Unlike many, who actually have vacation time from their jobs – my particular profession as a stay-at-home parent, chicken-mama, feeder of the zoo, wife, and of course blogger and podcaster – doesn’t come with days off or vacation time. Typically if we want to take time… Continue reading Taking a Break
What in the Heck is a Real Fan?
Over the years I’ve written for Daily Duranie and researched fandom, there are two things I’ve seen in Duranland specifically: competition between fans to be “the Best”, and a constant policing of the community in order to establish, and maintain who should be “the Real Fans”. What in the heck is a real fan, anyway?… Continue reading What in the Heck is a Real Fan?
Let’s Talk About a Little Gratitude
On today’s episode of My Own Way, I wanted to talk a little bit about what I’ve learned as a result of this pandemic and feeling as though the world has been under lock and key since last March! One thing I’ve definitely learned is that editing doesn’t always go as planned…but hey, it’s finished… Continue reading Let’s Talk About a Little Gratitude
Let’s Address a Couple of the “Setlist Elephants” in the Room…
So, here’s the thing: I love talking about set lists. Discussing trends over the past twenty years? (Is that really possible? I mean…didn’t we do Y2K just like, last year???) Count me in! I love chatting about possibilities. So, here’s a podcast where I do all of that! As always, it’s just My Own Way!… Continue reading Let’s Address a Couple of the “Setlist Elephants” in the Room…
