She's makin' movies on location

The third mix disc is progressing satisfactorily. I have a sufficient number of tracks, and I have art. I need to find an order for the tracks, then write the playlist and print and cut. I should be able to have this done by MDay weekend.
Also, this is the first time I've bought music online and the first time I've included one of my own edits in a playlist. (La Vie Boheme from Rent, with extraneous bits trimmed out.) So lots of exciting groundbreaking activity. I expect a write up for Caliente and a big reveal for this disc in the next few days.
Plus, last night I finished the jumble, the cryptograph and the two crosswords puzzles from the newspaper without having to look up the solution at all. v. smug. Today, not as good--I had to check once for each crossword puzzle. (Roaring Camp chronicler Bret, and From the beginning (lat).)

One thing I love about your LJ is your use of song lyrics. :-) I haven't heard this song for years... Good news about the mix disc, too, of course.

Do you recognize many of them? I was just complaining to Clay that I wanted to embed an mp3 of whatever song I was referencing in the title, because a lot of times *I* don't even know where the lyric is from once the song stops racing through my head.

I get many, but I'm not sure if I get most, as I hadn't stopped to think about it. Usually what happens is, I look at the lyric and I get the rhythm of the words, but I end up sort of singing it to myself until the song title appears in my memory. This one, I got a flash of the video on MTV.

And this may interest you. There's an LJ client that lets you link your "current listening" to Amazon.com, so someone can click the link and be taken to a snippet of the song. Which is fine if everything you listen to is on Amazon. :-)

Hmmm. I might have to download a client.
