HAPPY FRIDAY!
Well I haven't gotten back into my blog as much as I thought I would but to be fair school did just start again and I have been working a lot more than I was over the summer. This week's selection is from Musicophilia because it just stayed next to the computer after I wrote about it last time on the Short Stories. I know, that's terrible. Oh well, what I can say?
Mrs. C was fond of Charles Ives and another worry she had was that she might have "an Ives hallucination."

I guess I should have explained for my non-musically minded readers that Charles Ives is a composer. He was one of the first internationally known American composers and wrote what was at the time consider "experimental" music, though I'm sure many today would find it fairly tame.
Here is mine but the quote is not too exciting even though the book has been good so far..

Guess that would be better than a Yu'ves hallucination!
Here is my Friday 56.
What a curious thought! Other people's hallucinations are fun to consider :-).
My Friday 56 is from Allyson Roy's Babydoll.
This was a lot of fun! Here's mine: Writing Advice for the Absolute Newbie
I came across your meme today for the first time, and I just had to join in. :o) Here's mine.
I must admit I'm curious as to whether "an Ives hallucination" would necessarily be a bad thing?
My F56 is here:
