My sister Stephanie is awesome, not only because she mailed me a package of Starbucks Chocolate Chocolate Chunk Biscotti for Valentine's Day, but also because she included her very own mixed CD full of Valentiney songs for my listening pleasure. AWESOME! Steph has had CD-burning capabilities for ONLY 2 OR 3 YEARS now and this is the first CD I've gotten. And I have made her at least 6 or more. Not that anyone is counting or anything. I'm not bitter. AWESOME!
So I ate biscotti this morning to celebrate Steph's new-found audio/technological talent. Her CD contains a bevy of marvelous songs including some Billie Holday, Norah Jones, Sarah Vaughan, Chris Isaak, Nina Simone, Jet, Cake, and more. I love it! I expect more CDs now. MORE!
Speaking of music, I've been meaning to do the following music meme for awhile now...at least since the funky Jeremy Gilby called me out about my lack of content.

What is the total amount of music files on your computer?
I don't know. I think a little over 5.33 GB.
The last CD you bought is:
Poetry and Aeroplanes - Teitur
What is the song you last listened to before this message?
"Differences" - Ginuwine
Five songs that you often listen to or that mean a lot to you.
1. I love "Poison" by Alice Cooper because it's freaky! Nasty and creepy! I love it. It reminds me of a fellow DJ in college who used to play it every radio show.
2. For some reason, I never get tired of listening to Counting Crows "Anna Begins" and "Black and Blue."
3. "If You Want Me To" by Ginny Owens is one of my most favorite songs. It means the most to me on a spiritual level.
4. As sappy as it is, "I'll Be" by Edwin McCain is a favorite. Reminds me of an exboyfriend. Bleh.
5. "Moments Like This" - Alison Krauss. This song is off the Twister soundtrack. Great lyrics:
It's in our power to face the storm with all its fury and madness
The flash of thunder roll behind us with a longing and sadness
The clouds will break.
Hold me. Whisper gently this is what we live for,
How we learn how we are, it defines us,
Ever reminding us that life never is more precious than this.
Hold me. Whisper gently that there's nothing to fear,
You'll always be near, to remind me, stand behind me
Although life can be rough we can never give up.
I have to leave my boyfriends Jonny Lang and Ben Harper off the list because I like every song of theirs.
Who are you gonna pass this stick to? (5 persons and why)
Kim because she's a big music lover.
R because I think we have similar taste.
Russ because he needs just one more opportunity to write about U2 and Bono.
Jeff Blazer because I'm very curious.
Tricia. Just because.
