You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Oh, I want Amazing Grace, full bagpipe. Because I am that cliche'. My mom, though? Like Ginger's with Nearer My God, hated Amazing Grace, and did threaten to haunt me if I allowed it at her funeral. Which...she haunted me enough while she was here, I didn't want to risk it.

Dad was all How Great Thou Art, so that's what he got.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

If you're asking, I want "I Can See Clearly Now" at my service. But y'all have given me some great ideas. Although really not planning on dying any time soon.

Because books.

Oh, "I'll Fly Away" is great, too. I just put it on, actually!

I think I'd only want "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" if June Carter Cash could sing it, though.

The status is NOT quo.

ita !, I meant to tell you that my Jamaican student is related to Patterson. I asked her the other day.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

OMG people, no one can die. lalalalalala I cannot here you. imaginary people in the box live forever and that is that.

I plan on flash mobbing anyone's service on here who dares leave. There might be songs from OMWF, there might also be loud reciting from the random quote generator.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'd like "This Is My Song," but the UU version without the dominion-y bits. (This without the last verse.)

I went to the gym and picked up a new card so I have one less excuse to not work out. Then I decided that was as close to exercise as I was going to get today and got a pedicure.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I dunno. Maybe tubthumper?

(Please do not actually play tubthumper at my funeral. My mother will be really confused.)

The status is NOT quo.

I'd like Basement Jaxx's "Do Your Thing." Seriously! It's a song you can't hear without wanting to grin and dance.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

My mother is in a choir and their choir director had a heart incident during rehearsal. Luckily a retired nurse (!) was in the choir and she immediately got bags of ice and put it on his chest while doing chest compressions waiting for the ambulance. Apparently she kept the man alive until the paramedics came.

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

That's what I said! Lyrically.

I don't know if I know your song. I mean, I probably do, but I can't place it.

Score! I am putting together an art box for art class, and I went to the art store and got supplies, and a box identical to one I already have, so I needed a way to differentiate the one with all the soft pencils and woodless pencils, and charcoal pencils and shit, and I knew I had stickers, because I am the sort of person that people give stickers to. But my hunt, while turning up all sorts of memories (and a coupon for a deep relaxation massage that I totally need to find out if it's still valid), NO STICKER. But, lo and behold, STICKER (I can't find the Batman one I actually have, but it's in that series). I've probably committed all sorts of crimes by actually sticking it to something, but fuck that. Batman is on my art box now.
