Fantastic quote up on wurds today:

"The past does not repeat itself, but it rhymes." --Mark Twain

Doesn't that just leave you a little bit stunned? If the past simply was repeating itself we'd recognize it and avoid making the same sorts of mistakes over and over and yet in retrospect we can look back and see the similarities in situations.

I have two music memes that I've nabbed from raptorkitten for you all today :)

Rules:
1. Have your music library ready.
2. Choose one (1) song from your music library whose title starts with the first letter (or number) of your screen name.
3. Repeat this process with each successive letter (or number) in your screen name until you run out of letters (or numbers).
4. Post up your results.
5. BONUS POINTS: Upload your mix (whether it's individual songs or a .zip of all the the songs) and include the mix in your post.

Elephant Love Song Medly: Moulin Rouge
Little London Night: Sarah Slean
I Want What I Want: Lauren Christy
Zero: The Smashing Pumpkins
Adam's Rib: Melanie Doane
Love Hurts: Cher
Angel: Ghost of the Robot
Victor's Piano Solo: The Corpse Bride
Escape: Rupert Holmes
L.A. Song: Beth Hart
Last Dance With Mary Jane: Tom Petty
Excuse Me Mr.: No Doubt

And I was given the letter L in the other music meme so here are 10 songs I love that start with L (in no particular order).


1. Little Known Facts: You're a Good Man Charlie Brown
2. Laid: James
3. Leaving Paris: Craig Armstrong
4. Little Mary Sunshine: Reefer Madness
5. Like Lovers Do: Heather Nova
6. Legend of a Cowgirl: Imani Coppola
7. Larissa's Lagoon: Idina Menzel
8. Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds: The Beatles
9. La Vie Boheme: RENT
10. Last Dance Rodeo: Jewel



I'm not posting this from work (in case anyone was wondering why the heck I'm posting during the day.) I have today off. Originally this was supposed to be the weekend of the Sarah Slean show in Kingston so I'd booked today off as a recovery from having 3 shows in a row plus travelling time. But I still had a busy busy weekend even without a random Ontario road trip thrown in so I'm happy to have a day to just relax.

Hmmm I've been scrolling the TWoP Veronica Mars boards and just wow... the die hard fans for this fandom have always sort of given me the wig but this is above and beyond. I think perhaps I'm just done watching now. I honestly didn't have many problems with the first half of this season which is where I know it lost a lot of fans but the second half of the season combined with that elite group of fans who in my eyes have done nothing but damage to the show is enough to make me throw in the towel. C'est la vie. Time to read more books :)
