One of those silly soundtrack to your life memes

Media library, shuffle, next for each song, etc. I cheated slightly when I got a song I had never actually listened to more than once

Opening Credits:
Freaky Friday - Aqua (an auspicious beginning)

Waking Up:
Knock 'Em Out - Lily Allen (I greatly approve)

First Day At School:
Ima Made Nando Mo - Mass Missile (Awesome. Awesome to the max.)

Falling In Love:
Blame It On the Tetons - Modest Mouse (That's kind of depressing. My first song was Track 2 of the Meta CD, so maybe I'll pretend it's that instead.)

Fight Song:
Ya Sholsa S Uma - tatu (I will be fighting for my lesbian love, apparently?)

Breaking Up:
Level the Vibes - Half Pint (Ahahahaha)

Prom:
Because We Can - Moulin Rouge OST

Life's OK:
Boom Boom Boom Boom - Vengaboys (I think this movie emphasizes my feminine side...)

Mental Breakdown:
I Just Make Faces - World/Inferno Friendship Society (Best. Breakdown. Ever.)

Driving:
Recycled Air - The Postal Service (Unnervingly appropriate)

Flashback
Flight To The Ford - Howard Shore, a.k.a. LotR soundtrack (This... what? What the hell movie is this?)

Getting Back Together:
Rose's Theme - Murray Gold, a.k.a. Doctor Who soundtrack (THIS IS A SIGN.)

Birth of Child:
Ich Errinere Mich an Weimar - World/Inferno Friendship Society (Lucky kid.)

Wedding:
Seven Nation Army - The White Stripes (This should have .)

Final Battle:
This Fire - Franz Ferdinand (But this song is okay too.)

Death Scene:
Complainte De La Butte - Moulin Rouge OST (This is nice, I supposet.)

Funeral Song:
Destroy the Orcs - 3 Inches of Blood (...)

End Credits:
I Don't Feel Like Dancin' - Scissor Sisters (This... oh hell, this works fine.)


A few "what the fuck?"s on there, but otherwise that's surprisingly solid. More later, perhaps.

Home status: ish.

I have just returned for yet another weekend in Seattle, this time with a microwave, the cable I need to make my computer speakers work, and the box I need to make my TV play videogames (which I still need to get one more cable for, at least, but I think I can get working tomorrow). I'm feeling strangely okay. It bothers me slightly that this upswing in contentment has been so correlated with the acquisition of 'stuff', but... well, I like stuff. Long conversations with wise people helped a lot too. I can't say I'm super excited to be up here, but I'm not down about it either.

For the first time I think being up here is actually somewhat acceptable to me. It feels good.

"Come with me and we will talk of many things! of clouds and rainbows and fairy kings!

...Except I would have done it like an elf."

Please

I just want to go home.
