Tuesday Thoughts

I was just reading this article about Gabrielle Giffords and music therapy.  It caught my attention because, like so many others, I hope so much for her recovery and because in general, music therapy interests me.

In a recent Amazon order, I debated between ordering Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain by Oliver Sacks  and Phantoms in the Brain: Probing the Mysteries of the Human Mind by V.S. Ramachandran. 

It took me a long time to narrow titles on my Amazon Wish List to these two titles, but in the end, I went with Phantoms by Ramachandran.  When I read the article about Giffords, I wished I ordered both of them.  Next month, I'll get Muscophilia.

B.E. will be here this afternoon, and I'm disappointed that the poetry books I ordered for us are not here yet.  I ordered them at the same time as Phantoms in the Brain, and expect them any day.  Maybe, just maybe, they will arrive in today's mail.

Taking a little break from the Eccentrics.  The three in progress have begun stalling a little.  This one has been getting more attention, but his body has been slower to progress.  He has shoes, legs, leggings, and torso right now, but no arms.
