mixed up monday: sounds like shakespeare

on 04-23-2012

Nothing like sharing a birthday with the Bard to jumpstart my existence waxing poetic.

Today’s Spotify playlist was inspired by a handful of the many ways William Shakespeare left his indelible mark on humankind with both his timeless storytelling and his enduring contributions to  the English language.  While not the “be all/ end all,” soundtrack, it is most definitely a heartfelt tribute to my birthday twin.
