Today’s Question:

If I've heard a song during a movie or TV show I usually check ITunes to find it. If it's the performer's name I'm searching on, other songs by them are typically grouped by album and I'll play more samples of them from the same album but usually only purchase the single. It's interesting when the song I'm looking for sounds nothing like the rest of their stuff on the same album.

Have you ever met someone who shared the same birthday/date as you ? No. Do you know anyone whose birthday is the same as (the date of) a national holiday ?
Not personally, but I remember George Steinbrenner's birthday was July 4.
Bonus:
Have you ever house-sat, pet-sit, or plant-sat for someone else’s home, animal(s), or garden/plants ?
That would be irresponsible on the part of the owner.
Just for Fun:
What is something you find easier to do (or that you do more) in winter or fall ?
Since the seagulls are only here in the winter, and since the leafless trees scenery is so drab, that's when I photograph seagulls.
What is something you find easier to do (or that you do more) in spring or summer ? Butterfly photography. They like it hot.
Yes, a musician buddy of mine in Calif shares the same bday as me.
Yes I've house sat and dog sat for my K9 friends a couple of times, love those dogs.
In the winter or fall I've found it easier to breathe, not be so cranky, get more stuff done. These summers in AZ are brutal.
Happy Monday!

Happy Monday July 10, everybody-and welcome to QOTD.
Today’s Question:
Do you ever listen to entire music albums (LPs/cds) online (YouTube or elsewhere)-or only to selected songs (specific tracks) ? Rarely online, we have a massive CD collection, and we listen to the entire CD
Extra Credit:
Have you ever met someone who shared the same birthday/date as you ? No
Do you know anyone whose birthday is the same as (the date of) a national holiday ? No
Bonus:
Have you ever house-sat, pet-sit, or plant-sat for someone else’s home, animal(s), or garden/plants ? We went twice/day to feed someone's dog, which was a pain in the neck. Never again.....not our responsibility, and I've learned to say "no".
Just for Fun:
What is something you find easier to do (or that you do more) in winter or fall ?
What is something you find easier to do (or that you do more) in spring or summer ? Doesn't apply to me. I work outside 12 months/year, 50-60 hours/week in all kinds of weather. I just plan for whatever the weather will be. Easy or not, work has to be done, and many people rely on me. Sounds dumb, but I love what I do!
Today’s Question: Do you ever listen to entire music albums (LPs/cds) online (YouTube or elsewhere)-or only to selected songs (specific tracks)? I've never listened to an entire album/cd online. In fact, I rarely listen to music on YouTube. I should do that more often. My boyfriend listens to a lot of music on YouTube and much prefers it to radio.
Extra Credit: Have you ever met someone who shared the same birthday/date as you? Yes. I know 3 people who have the same birthday as I. At one point, 3 of us all worked in the same office! Do you know anyone whose birthday is the same as (the date of) a national holiday? Yes. I know someone whose birthday is July 4, someone who was born on Christmas day and someone who was born on New Year's day. Most of our national holidays float, such as Labor Day - the first Monday of September. Because holidays like that one, I have friends whose birthdays occasionally fall on one of those floating holidays.
Oh, and here's a nifty thing: we have two people in our family who were born on February 29!
Bonus: Have you ever house-sat, pet-sit, or plant-sat for someone else’s home, animal(s), or garden/plants? Yes. Before I purchased my house, I made pretty decent money house-sitting for well-to-do people when they went out of town. It started back when I was in college. The dean of women called me to her office one day and said a couple from a nearby ritzy subdivision asked her to recommend a female student who would be a responsible house-sitter. The dean knew me because I was an R.A. at my dorm. I was flattered that she picked me to recommend to the couple. The couple interviewed me and hired me to be their house-sitter. I stayed at their gorgeous home many times over a period of about 10 years. That also let to other house-sitting gigs for their friends. It was a pretty sweet deal, to get paid to stay in homes that seemed like palaces to me. Fun stuff!
Just for Fun: What is something you find easier to do (or that you do more) in winter or fall? Doing my power-walking outdoors. I hate hot, humid weather, and it's torture for me to walk outdoors this time of year. I do it anyway, but find it much easier to do when the weather is cool or downright cold. I love cold weather. What is something you find easier to do (or that you do more) in spring or summer? Drive. While I love winter weather, I don't like dealing with dangerous road conditions from snow and ice.
Today’s Word: escheat /əsˈCHēt/ (n.): Historical term for a common law doctrine, in which property reverts to the state in absence of legal heirs/inheritors. Can also refer to the property itself (which falls under the condition of escheat). Interesting. I did not know that. I'm surprised I never ran across that term during my 30+ year career as a paralegal.
Today Is: Independence Day (Bahamas) Yay! National Pina Colada Day No, thanks. I don't like coconut. -this week is- Sports Cliche Week Slam dunk!
