Breathe

There was a song I always used to hear at a certain place in Seattle, and whenever it would come on I'd ask the guy working there to please, please tell me what it was. But his story was always the same. The cases were all mixed up, so the only way would be to climb up there (the CD player was on top of a refrigerator), stop the music, and pull out the CD to see what it was. And he refused. So for years whenever I thought of the song, I'd try googling snippets of the lyrics, but I guess I just never heard them right, because I never came up with anything.

I was just looking at my CDs for something to listen to and rip, and noticed one jewel box was sticking out a bit. One of those narrower ones, like imports and singles are sometimes packaged in. Turns out, it's "Breathe" by Vick Moore. It's the song I've been obsessing about for years. I don't remember ever actually figuring out who it was by, or getting it. But either I did somewhere along the way, or the CD fairy has been here.

I feel like I've lost my mind. But at least I found the song. Not a bad trade.

Convert, heathen!

Help me convince nancypants107  to switch from photobucket to flickr. In the meantime, here's a darling picture of me from her photobucket.

Ten things you hate about me

Because sgtred said I should.

1. I think that drugs should be legalized, but traffic and transit rules should be enforced more often, and carry a more severe penalty when they are broken.

2. A big reason I came to Seattle was so I wouldn't have to have a car any more, and I find the experience of being in one totally terrifying.

3. I avoid children whenever possible, but it's their parents I actually hate.

4. My taste in music is more inclusive than you'd guess (even by looking at my CDs) and a lot of the things I like would probably surprise you.

5. The only sport I like to watch is curling.

6. My hands have simian creases, and they warned my parents when I was born that Down Syndrome was a possibility.

7. I use chopsticks more often than I use forks and spoons. [EDIT to add: this may not be true as of a couple of weeks ago now that I don't eat in vietnamese restaurants every day. Certainly true for the last year and a half, though]

8. I don't think we should execute people because it's expensive and doesn't bring their victims back to life.

9. I had 17 or so piercings that are all gone now, but didn't get any tattoos until many years after taking them all out. 

10. I almost majored in German, but realized I didn't want to teach or translate for a living.
