Sorry I’m so late with today’s post. Our morning was wild here, and the afternoon is not faring much easier, as far as time goes! I think I’m still coming to terms with my weekend, which was amazing. Anytime I can spend the day out by the pool and see my favorite band at night… Continue reading Turnabout is fair play when it comes to the set list

Highlights and More from Night One of Spring 2017 Tour!
I apologize for the lateness of the blog today (as well as the lack of a question of the day). Wi-fi has not been super cooperative for us as we have been out by the pool most of the day, enjoying drinks and Duran trivia (let the record show that our friend, Lori, and I… Continue reading Highlights and More from Night One of Spring 2017 Tour!
…And We’ll Remember
Twelve years ago today I drove to Chicago to join my new Duranie friends for a weekend of fun and Duran Duran. While I had met many of these new friends months prior in New Orleans, the weekend in 2005 was the first time I would attending a Duran show with any of them. When… Continue reading …And We’ll Remember
The fun begins TONIGHT: Daily Duranie goes to Agua Caliente!
I can barely stand it. I actually am expected to go to work and DO things, all day…be a mom, make dinner, chauffeur a small child to and from her own choir practice, and then go pick up Amanda tonight from the airport. As an aside, I have to tell you, this whole “working” thing all… Continue reading The fun begins TONIGHT: Daily Duranie goes to Agua Caliente!
Four Days to go till Rancho Mirage!
In between sneezes, I am attempting to blog about Rancho Mirage. I think Spring has arrived in California. The outdoor thermometer is forecast to hit 85 degrees (Fahrenheit). Daylight Saving Time means that it is still dark at 6am. Lastly, my allergies indicate that yes, pollen is indeed in the air. Yay. The good news is… Continue reading Four Days to go till Rancho Mirage!
With you my friend: International Women’s Day
Today is International Women’s Day. Coincidentally, I’m at home today, and my youngest is sick – I think she’s got the flu. I am not planning to go on strike (I’m a mom and that just doesn’t really work), but I had planned to casually work in a little reading about some prominent female historical… Continue reading With you my friend: International Women’s Day
Looking at the Reasons for Me to Head Back
If Duran Duran had a philosophy of life, I would say that it was to live in the moment. All you need is now, right? In interviews, they often claim not to look back at earlier times. They are happy where they are, doing what they are doing at that moment. During the All You… Continue reading Looking at the Reasons for Me to Head Back
Longing for the dark of our nocturnal life
March is coming, and I’m thankful for the short month of February. I am also very aware that in just a couple of weeks, Duran Duran will be here in California and I’ll be on my way to the Palm Springs area with Amanda. I’m excited to have a girls weekend. Unlike a few of… Continue reading Longing for the dark of our nocturnal life
It’s about the money, honey! Those darn ticket prices
Lately, the blog has been void of truly controversial topics. I have stuck to basics, like commemorating days in history and that sort of thing. The writing has been easy, and I’ve enjoyed not having my inbox/comments flooded with inflammatory and argumentative replies. I don’t miss that sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach,… Continue reading It’s about the money, honey! Those darn ticket prices
Musical Offer!
Duran Duran’s social media posted this picture yesterday: The tweet that went along with the photo was, “Happy Friday! Nick and John in the studio in London” After I saw the photo, I texted Rhonda to ask, “Know why they are in the studio?” as I figured that I missed some statement due to my… Continue reading Musical Offer!
