lyrics & butterfly time

I’ve been thinking in song lyrics a lot lately. I guess it’s the time of year that words resonate more. It’s so damn cold, we all want someone in our beds… but I digress.  So here is some reccomended listening if you want to get into my head… or just listen to some good tunes:

Red Shoes- Elvis Costello

Freakum Dress- Beyonce

I’ll Never Be Your Maggie May- Suzanne Vega

In a Different Light- The Bangles

Hit the Ground Running- Iyeoka

Don’t Make Me Prove It- Veruca Salt

Crimson and Clover- Tommy James and the Shondells

Bell Bottom Blues- Eric Clapton

Maggie May- Rod Stewart

Anna’s Song- Marvin Gaye

Hip Hop- Dead Prez

Trouble Man- Neenah Cherry

Right Hand Man- Joan Osborne

Lisa Listen- Lisa Loeb

Us- Regina Spektor

Part of My Life- India Arie

Love Me Right- Goapele

Clever not Beautiful- Hawksley Workman

Lost Ones- Jay-Z

Rock Me- Liz Phair

Morning Song- Jewel

Close Your Mind- Lupe Fiasco

Poem to a Horse- Shakira

My Coco- Stellastar

We’re Just Friends- Wilco

Ok. I think that’s sufficient. I really should be doing homework right now.  So it is the time of year that the sun starts waking up before me. I have been looking forward to it for a while. I am sufficiently prepared to come out of my cocoon this week, even though, as Jonathan so eloquently put it- “It is Alaska outside.” It’s supposed to be like 40 degrees tomorrow, which will be balmy compared to the 12 it is right now, so I’m excited to get back to my gym schedule. Also, I finally finished the stupid accounting conversion that’s been weighing down my work to do list for months, I created a binder of all of the 55 grants I have on my schedule for the year, and I organized my binder for my schoolwork, and actually even wrote an essay. I even cleaned my room and brought all my books in from the car. So now I just need a new bookshelf, some tupperware, and someone to sleep on the other half of my bed… again, I digress.
