5 Favorite Songs +++
I'm still getting to yr damn questions tomorrow, I swears.
Everyone's doing the five songs thing again & even though I just made a songs post I'm always up for talking about it some more. Music! Then Birah did a bunch of other fives stuff and "tagged" me, so here you go
5 Songs I'm Digging Lately
1. Too Drunk To Fuck - Nouvelle Vague
Mostly because of the noises she makes in between the lines. Oh come on, you know you love ridiculous lounge covers of popular songs.
2. Way Too Good - Figurine [thanks teahart]
It's super ridculous poppy but I love love love love it and "get it". Or it gets me. Oh man, yeah.
3. Wicked Child - Radiohead [thanks birdhart]
B-side that I can't get enough of. I'm not nearly as huge a Radiohead fan as some, but I love these fairly simple songs with Thom Yorke's voice so prominent. Yeah.
4. Casimir Pulaski Day - Sufjan Stevens
I keep focusing on different tracks from the epic Illinois, this is the one lately. So pretty.
5. Que Onda Guero - Beck
The new Beck album grows on me more and more. This song in particular makes me want to jam in a car.
5 snacks I enjoy
1. Almonds!
2. Cherries!
3. Kerbey Lane Queso!
4. Spree!
5. Almond Butter Cookies!
5 songs I know all of the lyrics to [like Birah, I'm sticking with songs that I can sing totally unreminded + unaccompanied. there's lots of those, though, so I narrowed it down further to songs I find myself singing a lot. For whatever reason.]
1. Girl's Room - Liz Phair
2. With Arms Outstretched - Rilo Kiley
3. Take A Chance On Me - ABBA
4. Since U Been Gone - Kelly Clarkson [or, er, Ted Leo]
5. Keep The Customer Satisfied - Simon and Garfunkel
5 semi-impractical things I would do with 100 million dollars
1. Own an awesome home or neat apartment in all of my favorite places and places where my best friends live -- namely Austin, Portland, New York, L.A., Montreal, Durango, and Prague.
2. Own a vespa, a horse, and a hybrid car. Transportation fun!
3. Private jet for seeing friends who don't live in above mentioned cities, visiting Australia and Japan, and seeing rock shows whenever and wherever I want.
4. Give all the writers, photographer, animators, artists, and filmmakers I know huge grants to work on their projects.
5. Give a lot of money to some very specific action-oriented non-profits I trust -- such as Food Not Bombs, The Inside Books Project, Greenpeace, The Education Empowerment Association, Not Back To School Camp, Austin Area Homeschoolers, and Capitol Area Master Naturalists.
5 places I would run away to [oops, I already sort of answered this above -- exluding the places I'd just want to see friends in...]
1. Prague
2. New Yawk
3. Montreal
4. Portland
5. D.C.
5 things I would never wear
1. Fancy poncho
2. "Ass-hat" skirt
3. Those long shorts/short pants that look like skirts and have a super-wide waistband.
4. Girly ankle boots
5. Prairie skirt.

1. Parker Lewis Can't Lose
2. Freaks & Geeks
3. My So-Called Life
4. Scrubs
5. Stella
5 bad habits
1. Apathy/sleepstering.
2. Arguing for "fun".
3. Bad budgeting.
4. Chewing on my nails/hair/occasionally random other items.
5. Inability to "get over" things/people.
5 biggest joys
1. Good songs
2. My best friends
3. Really good books
4. My relationship with my parents
5. Cute animals
5 favorite toys
1. Lifelike, tiny "walking" hippo
2. My Harry Potter lego set with Draco and Harry and Buckbeak
3. My iPod
4. My Holga camera
5. This insane walking giraffe Rhymi gave me many years ago (that still works!)
