Carmen McCrae - 'Just A Little Lovin'' (GB Remix)

Album: Atlantiquity

I don't know why, but even since I got her last evening, my as-yet-unnamed titanium 16g 20mm banana-bell, I keep thinking of Anna (P.) when I look at her.

She's streamlined (4mm top ball, 6mm clear jeweled bottom ball) compared to Kiran/Narik, and understated: beautiful - just like Anna.

So I guess that's what I'll call her.

Shirley Bassey - 'Where Do I Begin' (awayTeam Mix)

Album: The L Word: Season 2 OST

Her name is Adeline (and her Rottie's name is Rachel; it used to be Puppy)!

Doggie didn't react aggressively towards Rachel - that's a good sign, right? - and Rachel's a real sweetheart.

Inks on both biceps (one of which an armband), and left wrist.

Even if my brain didn't freeze up, there's just no tactful way to ask for her number, right?

My luck, she's very, very, very straight.

eels - 'trouble with dreams'

Album: blinking lights and other revelations

i'm walking down a lonely road
clear to me now but i was never told
trouble with dreams is you never know
when to hold on and when to let go

[...]

this is the life that i must lead now
crossing fingers and wiping brow
trouble with dreams is you can't pretend
something with no beginning has an end

Fat Freddy's Drop - 'Wandering Eye'

Album: Based On A True Story

I think it was the dinner I had - fish and chips, and a pavlova for dessert - that I dreamed what I had: back in Welly, school, Salamanca Road, responding to Alwyn's resigned "I've been here five years ..." with "I wish I were you ..."

Didn't want to wake, but I had to.

And I did.

Two years ago.

Fisher - 'Nothing Is Real'

Album: Uppers and Downers

Learned my favorite band's CDs have been dropped by (prolly) the only local distributor: shocked, distraught; bought Bottle Rockets.

Dinner with my lovely ladies.

I feel ... wondrous ...

I think.

(But definitely very, very, very tired.)

I want more.



I want you.

Fisher - 'Dirty Girl'

Album: Uppers and Downers

Ran into her again! (Third time lucky?)

Not having a crush, and it's not about the tat(s) - it's not - but I do so wanna get to know her beyond small talk about our bitches.

I think she could so be my type ...

Angela Aki - 'This Love'

Album: Blood+ OST

I try so very hard to do nice things for you, things to make you smile and make you happy; yet, no matter how hard I try, however much effort I put in, the things I do seem insignificant, trivial - sometimes even detrimental - when compared to the things you'd done that touched me.

Why is it that whatever I do is never enough, that I'm never good enough?

Melissa Etheridge - 'Breathe'

Album: Lucky

She's right, you know.

I guess that's why I haven't breathed, lived, all this while; why I've been holding my breath.





I need a friend.

Bernadette Peters - 'Unexpected Song'

Album: Song and Dance OST

Depending on where one stands, it's either a buy-out ... or it's a sell-out.

Merger, my ass.

Then I mused, maybe marriage mightn't be too far from that - for most people ...

Hajime Chitose - 'Tsuki Wo Nusumu'

Album: Kataritsugu Koto

Every time my dad flies off, I feel the onus of looking after the family, my mom, fall squarely on my shoulders.

It always feels as heavy.

Betty - 'The L Word Theme'

Album: The L-Word: Season 2 OST

One word: withdrawal.

Kinnie Starr - 'Alright'

Album: The L Word OST

1. Happy 2^nd, Fern.


2. Happy 26^th, you. Hope you're back in Singapore already.


3. Marty breaks Bernie Parent's record for most wins in a single season by a goaltender (eatcha heart out, Philly!), and


4. Devils take top seed in the Atlantic division, second-seeded in the Eastern Conference (let's go, Devils!)
.

5. I found a veritible trove of treasure.


6. Happiness is in found in finding.

Phillip Glasser & Betsy Cathcart - 'Somewhere Out There'

Album: An American Tail OST

It's a completely different moon here.

And I'm a completely different type of touch-me-not.

Frankie Valli - 'Grease'

Album: Grease OST

Went back to the old neighborhood to consult the family doctor and saw two familiar faces: one definitely so, the other more vaguely so.

I think I went to either nursery school or kindie with them.

For a moment, I was amazed just by the fact they still live in the same neighborhood after all these years.

No doubt I'd be one of those who stay put too, given half the chance.
