I completely understand your connection to music! I’m the same way. Some music makes me burst into tears. In fact, I worked at a restaurant, and whenever this one song came onto our background mix, I would start bawling! Not from sadness, it just gave me this overwhelming melancholy… a gaping longing… which made me look crazy. Lol! I mean, one moment, I’m explaining the soup of the day, all cheery, and the next minute, tears would be running down my cheeks.

I absolutely love “Do you love me?” by Nick Cave. It could be such a cliche line, but he sings it with so much honesty. I love it! (I’m not talking about the Part II of this song, but the Part I.)

I’m glad to meet another unapologetic TV viewer, too. I know so many people who claim to never watch it… (Interestingly, they are often the same people who claim to only need 3 hours of sleep a night, too.) Well, I think TV has improved over the years.

I didn’t find Napoleon Dynamite mean-spirited. It kinda reminded me of myself and some of my pals. Plus I grew up in eastern WA and the countryside of the film was similar. Now I’m curious to see it again…

I do so love watching a 7-yr-old’s interpretive dance. I have fond memories of my step-daughter dancing while holding peacock feathers at that age…

OK, I’m off to listen to the songs you shared here… ~Tui

Swine flu? Yikes! Barfing is never fun…

Best wishes with your new job. May it exceed all your expectations!

Happy 2010!

Your ideas to work with the tech to help teachers sounds like an excellent use of your talents. If you design stuff like a grade book that automatically posts to some blackboard service, you would be a goddess amongst teachers. Or pick your favorite book/novel/play and spend 6 months designing learning modules around it. Some teachers somewhere would be interested. Best of luck and congratulations!

Fangsgiving, eh? I love Siouxsie. She does express angst well, I agree. I am just here to say hello, and hope that your weekend brings you pleasant surprises!

I just staggered onto your blog via NaBloPomo’s blog roll. I’ve only just met you here, but I wanted to say hi and to wish you well. From the little I’ve read so far, it sounds as though you are going through a tough time. Best wishes to you! I’ll be back to see how it’s going.
