A regular at Evanston's Starlight Concerts, Lucy Smith invites us to celebrate the release of her new album--Autumn in Augusta--with her Tuesday October 15, in downtown Chicago.
I love Evanston and Illinois. I tweet at @EvanstonLive about things Evanstonians might or should care about. When a tweet isn't enough, I post here and feature posts by guest bloggers from the community.

Pondering LOVE: Thank you, Leo Buscaglia
.•*✿*•.¸¸.•*✿
I've been pondering LOVE more intensely lately for a variety of reasons (as some of my friends and family who've been in touch with me outside of cyberspace can attest to.)I aim to post more about it a bit here.

Here's some of what he had to say about LOVE:
Leo Buscaglia - Speaking of Love pt 1 of 6
From a talk he did in Sacramento, I believe in the 1980, but it is timeless.
Leo Buscaglia - Speaking of Love pt 2 of 6
I especially appreciate what he has to say about fat thighs.
Leo Buscaglia - Speaking of Love pt 3 of 6
Yeah, plums...and fat thighs!
O'Hare gets a shout out too.
Leo Buscaglia - Speaking of Love pt 4 of 6
Love the Joel's Day story he starts here.
I believe that one person's need is another person's surplus...and this story hits on that.
Leo Buscaglia - Speaking of Love pt 5 of 6
Tyranny of word! (Which LB talks about here before "racial profile" was a common term.)
Leo Buscaglia - Speaking of Love pt 6 of 6
I aim to be a better lover and look forward to hearing from anyone else who wants to discuss that with me. (Yes, chuckle it up, smut brains. If I knew how to say that better, I would. That's okay, have a giggle on me.)
