10 Out Of 100 Favorite Songs: Monday Listicles


This is so fun and I will participate in anything that involves music so I was thrilled when I opened up Stasha's Monday Listicles (this week Cassie  picked the theme) and it was all about listing 10 of your favorite songs. 

My list of favorites includes about 100 so I chose the first 10 I thought of but really cheated because I looked at my iPod "favorites" playlist and the songs I most listened to recently. I'm a rock girl from early on so many songs below reflect this!

I don't know if there in any sort of order but maybe since this is the order in which they popped into my mind. But my mind works in scattered ways most often so that's not reliable either!

1. Touch Me- The Doors 

2. Maybe I'm Amazed- Paul McCartney and Wings

3. My Old School- Steely Dan

4. Payphone- Maroon 5 with Wiz Khalifa, the explicit version

5. Ventura Highway- America

6. Missing- Everything But The Girl


8. Ruby Tuesday- Rolling Stones

9. Anything Pink or Kid Rock- REALLY….ANYTHING!!! I love them both. Have seen them both several times and will see them again the minute they step foot anywhere close to Chicago. I'm willing to travel to see them as well. 

10.Desperado- The Eagles

If I could add...

Landslide- Fleetwood Mac

Peace Train- Cat Stevens

Lose Your Dreams And You Will Lose Your Mind: SOCS


As I say every Sunday, and I’m in love with Sundays by the way, I enjoy feeling free to write for five minutes and have somewhere to put it like Jana’s Thinking Place. Where stream of conscious writing is standard Sunday fare.

Write for five minutes, don’t edit, then stop which is hard for me!


This week’s (optional) prompt: Wouldn’t it be awesome if… ?

******************************

Wouldn’t it be awesome if I learned to manage my time better? I’ve had the entire weekend to my self. Yeaaaa meeee! But I don’t have much to show for except a list of movies I’ve watched On Demand and a couple hundred pages read in my book.

What I do when I have too much time on my hands is flitter away an entire day. Flittering never bores me. But then I must bust my tail the next day to pack in all the stuff I said I’d do or committed to do. That’s the place I’m in right now on Sunday morning at 11:33a.m.

Thank goodness for Saturday Mass!

I did accomplish the Swallow Cliff Stairs today and I’ve worked back up to my usual 16 sets I was doing pre-injury. Good thing because in 20 days I will have to do 3X that.

But that’s the only thing I’ve done.

Wouldn’t it be awesome if I could continue wasting time on YouTube and iTunes? And someone would shower for me, do my hair and makeup. Then hit the mall for my mom’s birthday present, remembering a card and paper too, wrap it all and drive me to her house 25 minutes away, all within the next 2 hours. 

Man…..I’m really feeling lazy.

Wouldn’t it be awesome to just lie on the couch, watch more movies and read a few hundred more pages? But then I'd disappoint my mom and I don't want that!

Times up. Gotta go do all the stuff I haven't done...

******************************

There's no time to lose, I heard her say

Catch your dreams before they slip away

Dying all the time

Lose your dreams

And you will lose your mind.

Ain’t life unkind?

Ruby Tuesday, The Rolling Stones
