We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

Or you can virtually kick my ass? I'd be happy for you to do so. I'd happily acquiece to unharmless you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse, go and punch her the fuck out.

Will do.

Speaking of sticky notes, I got these from a coworker. Hilarious.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

The 30% are basically anything indie, or R&B/rap. Here is the link: [link]

Here are the insipid songs I had just heard:

45. Hootie & the Blowfish "Only Wanna Be With You"
46. Shania Twain "You're Still the One"
48. Matchbox Twenty "3 AM"
49. Jewel "Who Will Save Your Soul"
52. Sugar Ray "Fly"
54. Joan Osborne "One of Us"
58. Sophie B. Hawkins "Damn, I Wish I Was Your Lover"
61. Sheryl Crow "All I Wanna Do"
62. Live "I Alone"
64. The Presidents of the United States of America "Peaches"
66. Edwin McCain "I'll Be"

ETA: I would love like every song on the top 80s list, just in comparison. But they would be almost indefensibly poppy.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

So, let's say a dog ate an entire bag of brown sugar. Would that be a bad thing, do we think? How bad?

I'm already getting excited for the low numbers, because I don't think there's been a Pearl Jam song yet. Oh, college.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Brenda, I think that dog's shit really is going to smell sweeter than anyone else's for a while.

IOW, you're gonna have one uppity dog.

Hee. Not my dog, thankfully. But I don't see anything poking around the web to suggest that the dog is in for anything more serious than some digestive woes.

ETA: Which, seriously, you eat a whole bag of sugar, it's no more than you deserve.

Apparently sugar-free gum is very bad news for dogs, though. Who knew?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You will never catch me defending Jewel, but I gotta step up for "Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover." I think I may have given that one three stars on my iPod.

Actually, I don't have that much defense of the 90s, but my love of 1995 has me so heady that I fly off the handle.

My 80s pop was BritPop, and I won't let anyone take my Ultravox away from me.

Shit, I just thought of what else I should get my sister for Christmas, but when in the hell am I going to get it? Stores are scary.

Wasn't Damned I wish I was you lover

Sophie Hawkins? (my brother bought the singlet...thing. On cassette. TOTALLY on him.)
