Doing your taxes sucks, and I've spent the better part of my day catching up on my general ledger entries for the year. I am no where near finished, so the brain-fry has just begun. Every year I say I'm gonna keep up with it monthly and I never do. Guess you can say that I never learn. I wonder if the wine and cigarettes that I am finding necessary to get through this task are tax deductible. Hell, I'm saving the receipts and entering them in the damn ledger under insurance. Insurance that I don't friggin lose my mind.
So....as I am sifting through mountains of paper, making piles and keying numbers in a ledger I am listening to my ITunes. I started to wonder if I had to pick my top 10 songs of all time, which ones would make the list? To supress the dreadful boredom of data entry, I started to make a mental list which I think I finalized tonite. Maybe I've over-looked a song. I just kept writing and striking off the list until I felt I could no longer strike a single song on the list. I had a majorly difficult time picking just one Stones song. Truth is, I could almost devote my list to the Stones. Some of the songs have sentimental meaning, as a friend pointed out about some of my sexy foods. And, yes, I did notice that the major part of the list is classical rock and that I didn't include any of the genres that I listen mostly to these days. I fully expect debate on the list to follow, and I don't mind one bit - although, I will not be striking a thing from it.
10. "Lentil" - Sia
9. "Everlong" - Foo Fighters
8. "Florida" - Patty Griffin
7. "All Along the Watchtower" - Dave Matthews (killing 2 birds with one song)
6. "Sitting Still" - REM
5. "Speak To Me/Breathe" - Pink Floyd
4. "Bargain" - The Who
3. "Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You" - Led Zeppelin
2. "Locomotive Breath" - Jethro Tull
1. "Gimme Shelter" - Rolling Stones
One of these days, I'm gonna learn how to pop these suckers out in a separate window (help, KC). In the process of trying to figure it out, I saw that Kurt Cobain's daughter is going to be making her musical debut. I named a dog I rescued after her once, 'cause I thought the name "Frances Bean" was funny. The dog was funny, so it fit. She left my house with a young couple, headed for North Carolina. I have no idea where Frances Bean is today. The dog, not the singer. Cheers!

"For the record Zu I give you 9,7, and 3. But if you ever, ever, play Jethro Tull around me I wont be responsible for the consequences ...."
