finally back online!

so many posts begun in my head, then forgotten. In the meantime, nothing better than a little "tagging" courtesy of my younger-but-no-longer-littler sister. (When I remember, I'm annoyed that everyone in the family is taller than me.):

When you get "tagged," make a list of 5 songs that've been on repeat lately on your playlist, and briefly give an explanation of that song... then proceed to "tag" 5 of your faithful readers to do the same. (You should tag someone who is likely to read your blog!)

Lyrics links are my personal addition; i'd rather not explain a song when you can click your way to its lyrics anyway.

1. She's Got a Way - Billy Joel
Been crazy about this song lately, changing the gender and imagining i'll record it one day with a brief intro about how it best guesses at the inexpressible way my hubby makes me feel.

2. Broken Vow - Josh Groban
So many people seem to be breaking up lately, either amicably or wearily, having finally admitted that it's not working out. I do not press them -- they say what they want to -- but I imagine when singing this that I give voice to that which they dare not speak.

3. What Am I to You? - Norah Jones
I love the picturesque poetry and conveniently overlook the bids for reciprocity.

4. The Real Folk Blues- theme song, Cowboy Bebop Soundtrack
Spent the weekend at Anime Fest, and Cowboy Bebop DVD 1 arrived from Netflix a few days ago. Also, our cable tv was set up the other day and we've been watching the last few episodes of this series on Cartoon Network.

5. A Bit of Earth - "The Secret Garden"
I dunno. Something to do with moving in to a new place and wanting to nest, even though we've only signed a year's lease and should be working on moving into a house.
