Rose
Grabbed from gabri_jade:

Step 1: Put your MP3 player or whatever on random.
Step 2: Post the first line(s) from the first 30 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly (No lyric hunting! That is cheating!)

The usual exceptions (I skipped foreign language tracks, and used a line other than the first if the first contained the title) apply. Go to it, kids.

1) People are talking, talking ‘bout people…I hear the whispers, you won’t believe it
2) When I look into your eyes, I can see your love restrained
3) Work it, make it, do it, makes us longer, better, faster, stronger
4) There is no political solution to our troubled evolution
5) Shake up the picture, the lizard mixture with your dance on the eventide
6) Sunny sat down in the kitchen…she opened her book and a box of tools Sunny Came Home - by Shawn Colvin [info]sunshine_queen
7) I’ve been phoning at night and morning. I heard you say “Tell him I’m not home”
8) Oceans apart, day after day, and I slowly go insane Right Here Waiting - by Richard Marx [info]sunshine_queen
9) What’s the matter with clothes I’m wearing? Can’t you tell that your tie’s too white It's Stil Rock and Roll to Me - by Billy Joel[info]sunshine_queen
10) So long, I’ve been looking to hard, I’ve been waiting too long Waiting for a Girl Like You - by Foreigner [info]gabri_jade
11) Once I thought I was in control, but that was just another trick of fate
12) Who am I to disagree? I traveled the world and the seven seas Sweet Dreams (Are Made of These) - by the Eurythmics [info]gabri_jade
13) I love myself, I want you to love me. When I feel down, I want you above me
14) Lost in a dream, I don’t know which way to go. Let me say that you are all that you see
15) Jenny, Jenny, who can I turn to? You give me something I can hold onto
16) Lay a whisper on my pillow, leave the winter on the ground It Must Have Been Love -by Roxette [info]gabri_jade
17) On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair Hotel California - by the Eagles [info]gabri_jadeand [info]sunshine_queen
18) Easy, ready, willing overtime. When does it stop, where do you dare me to draw the line?
19) Traveling in a fried out combie, on a hippie trail head full of zombie
20) If you could see yourself now, baby. It’s not my fault, you used to be so in control
21) There’s a change of pace, of fantasy and taste…do you like good music? Do you like to dance?
22) I can’t believe the news today…oh I can’t close my eyes and make it go away
23) I’m just a simple girl in a high tech digital world
24) Baby, please try to forgive me…stay here, don’t put out the glow
25) I’m tired of playing on the team…ooh it seems I don’t get time out anymore
26) All last summer in case you don’t recall, I was yours and you were mine, forget it all
27) Wake up with bloodshot eyes, struggle to memorize the way it felt between your thighs
28) She’s just sixteen years old, leave her alone they said…separated by fools, who don’t know what love is yet
29) They told him don’t you ever come around here, don’t want to see your face, you better disappear
30) Breaking my back just to know your name…seventeen tracks and I’ve had it with this game Somebody Told Me - by the Killers [info]sunshine_queen
22nd-Nov-2009 07:16 pm - Christmas Shopping
shopping
I gotta say, this is about the most rapacious Christmas shopping season I've ever seen. It's not even Thanksgiving and Costco's Barbie Glamour Camper is already sold out. And trying to get a Zhu Zhu Pet...whoa, boy. I'll bet people would run over their grandmothers to get their hands on those. Alex and I have been watching e-bay auctions for those little hamsters and it is definitely a study of survival of the fittest (or biggest wallet).

If things keep up like this, I'm going to have to start my Christmas shopping in September next year!!

HanandLeia
So, I saw SW in Concert last night. It was quite good. The music was excellent and I enjoyed seeing Anthony Daniels. A boy in our row remarked to his mother, "Wow! He sounds just like C3PO!"

Alex and I had a great time. We also bought too much paraphernalia afterward. And I'm a bit bummed that I missed the Ani/Padme theme which is one of my favorite songs. I went out to get some food and the woman at the concession stand was so slow that she was almost moving backward.

Watching it made me nostalgic for the days when Fanfic was at its heyday and it seemed my muse was churning out ESB-ROTJ time period fic every other day. Sighs. She's in a coma now, it seems...

I got the Motorola Droid!!! I've already downloaded a free lightsaber app and SW sound app. They also have a coupon app and a bar code scanner app. And I got a couple of games. It also has Google voice recognition, that recognizes when you say, "TheForce.Net"!!!

Yankees
I got the chills when Mo went up to the mound today and "Enter Sandman" started playing.

The Yankees have World Series #27. It feels like all is right with the world again.

Nine years is an eternity to wait when you're a Yankees fan.

* thumbs nose at BoSox fans who waited 86 years between WS wins. Got another 83 years to go, guys *

Can't wait to see the boys go up the Canyon of Heroes on Friday.

Congratulations 2009 NY Yankees!!!

Go Derek! Go A-Rod! Go CC! Go Jorge! Go Andy! Go Melkie! Go Hideki! Go Robinson! Go Mariano! Go Johnny!

* ahem *

I'm fine. Move along. Move along....

Definitely, the most reassuring sight in the playoffs is that of Mariano Rivera striding up to the mound. He's like order out of chaos.

Looking forward to Wednesday night!

GAAAHH!
It's snowing outside, and the snow is sticking.

It's only October 15.

Don'tMess
I'm grossed out to read that Harrison Ford signed the petition to free Roman Polanski.

I still love Han Solo, but HF has dropped alarmingly in my estimation. I read the grand jury testimony that Samantha Geimer gave, which horrified me. How can anyone support freeing that man? Does the idea of a 43 year old man drugging, raping and sodomizing a 13 year old girl become appealing if you let it simmer for 30 years?
