play list

Today for the first time in years I typed an entry directly into the box rather than saving it to my documents first. Naturally because I didn't save the fucking thing, the moment I hit 'add new entry' my internet connection burped and I lost it all. What follows is what I can remember of it.
I have been working on the soundtrack of my life... in similar fashion to what Slade, Heidi and Slayerbarbie have done... though mine is (surprise!) much longer winded. The process reminded me of a post my friend Rox did a while back about the mixed tape.
I adored the mixed tape. I was thrilled to get them. I, like most girls would look for hidden meaning (as in how much the boy who made it was secretly in love with me) in ever tune and when I made a compilation for a boy I would put my heart and soul into ever selection. Sadly, boys (especially of the teenage variety) are about as deep as a puddle and completely oblivious on all counts. They didn't put any more thought into concealing messages than they did to look for them.
In a fit of nostalgia for the lost art of the mixed tape I thought I would have some fun with the idea and ask you all to make me a virtual cassette. Let me know what songs you would put on a tape for me, they could be songs that remind you of me or songs you think I might like and in return... if you want me to...I will do the same for you. There is no limit to how many or how few you choose... just have fun with it.
And I know you all have mad crushes on me (ha!) so I won't be looking for subliminal messages in your choices... or will I??
