Pass it on down from midtownmandy: Comment to this post and I will give you a letter. Upload and share five songs beginning with that letter.



I got the letter K!

Korobushko
Don't let the name put you off! This is by Bond and is one of my all time faves that they did.

Keep your heart broken
The Rasmus is totally underappreciated and they make great 'chill' music. It's not some of the more obnoxious hard rock that I listen to, nor is it super upbeat workout music. It's just nice to listen to when you're out for a drive, cleaning house, or baking anything.

The Kraken
Hans Zimmer did a fantastic job with all three Pirates of the Caribbean soundtracks but (IMHO) was the best of the lot

Kids
I ripped this from Amanda a while back and LURVE IT! MGMT is awesome


Keep yourself Warm
There are no words to describe the awesomness of this song. I listened to the lyrics and things just made sense.


BONUS SONG!
The Kiss
C'mon! It's the Last of the Mohicans!

"You submit, do you hear? You be strong, you survive... You stay alive, no matter what occurs! I will find you. No matter how long it takes, no matter how far, I will find you!"... *Katygoo* Now I just need to find a guy like that for Me!!

I think I'll turn on LotM while I get ready for bed!

I can't believe I haven't posted anything lately about my USAF career stuff. I don't get to go into the linguistics program right now (they're a wee bit overcrowded) so I'm going into the Intelligence field! I leave for Basic Training in like 2 1/2 weeks so YAY. If I survive (which I'm sure I will) I'll be coming back to San Angelo for 7 months of tech school and I'm really looking forward to it! I've gotta get to work right now, but I thought I'd update anyone who didn't already know this!

Yeah...Sooooo my recruiter totally kicks ass and managed to get me a guaranteed spot in the linguist program. It's official (again) I'M GOING TO MONTEREY!!

So I have royally jacked up my back. Not just a little bit... ROYALLY, you guys! If I had some f-ing insurance I'd go to the ER. I can barely walk and it hurts to breathe. Granted, it's my own fault. I went to DEP call for the Air Force and while playing volleyball I went for a ball that was behind me and after I hit it my feet came up and I went down hard. My back and head took all of the impact since my arms were fricking over my head! I don't think I messed up my spine, but the muscles in my lower back are screaming! I've worked my ASS off to get into the military and damned if this is going to keep me from it but at this point I don't know how shit is going to work out. I'm going to really baby it this weekend and start working out again on Monday if it's better. If it's not, I'm going to have to suck it up and go see my 'quacktastic' doctor. I'm really going to pray that I've just bruised it and haven't actually torn anything up. I guess if this d.q.'s me from service then I'll look into a surgical tech program at a community college.

SUBJECT CHANGE!

If my religious beliefs could accomodate the idea of reincarnation I would genuinely think that I died at sea or was widowed by a sailor. After my 20 year fascination with the Titanic (well any lost ship really) and me bawling like a flipping baby in The Perfect Storm when it shows the wall of the 10,000 lost Gloucester fishermen, it would kinda make sense. I don't know why it bothers me so much. I didn't cry when the Andrea Gail was actually lost, but seeing that damn wall made the tears start to roll. I'd really love to go see it in person. Maybe I'll make it a vacation one year. I can go there and to the Titanic cemetery in Nova Scotia.

Maybe I'm just emotional because of the meds I took for my back but Shipwrecks make me sad.

OK I'm really getting pissed off today. Last night we witnessed an historic moment in American politics as Barack Obama very clearly won the Presidential election. Now I'm seeing an alarming number of people who are "disappointed in the Church of America", "worried about what's going to happen to the USA", and "moving to Canada". I'm still not completely sold on Obama but, Damn it, give the man a chance! He's not the fucking anti-christ despite what the religious nut jobs are touting. The book of Revelations does NOT say "look out for Obama" or "don't vote for the black man because he'll destroy you" it doesn't even say "look out for Hussein" (besides, it's not like he gave himself that name). Revelations is so vague hat I don't think anyone will know who the AC is/was until after the fact anyway. I think everyone that voted has the right to express his or her opinion (if you didn't vote, don't speak), but show some fucking respect people! He has 4 years to live up to your extremely low expectations so just wait and see what he does before you burn him in effigy! I have managed to have very lively but polite debates with several of my friends about politics and none of us have resorted to the crap that started flying today. I'm not saying you can't be upset that your candidate didn't win, but try to be as classy as he was in his concession speech last night.

There's nothing that's going to change last nights results and all the people that're whining about it are already getting on my nerves 12 hrs after the fact. To them I say: sit back, shut the hell up, and hang on for the damn ride.

P.S. I think I'll move to California so I can get away from all of the rude, close-minded, bigoted, son's-of-bitches that have taken over my beloved home state.

kinda glad I didn't get the Ireland thing now. Check this out.

Regrettably I will be unable to accept the position at this time due to the high cost of obtaining a work permit coupled with the expense of last minute air fare. I cannot express how much I appreciate your consideration of me for this position and I deeply regret any inconvenience that this causes you. It would have been a pleasure to work and learn with you. Best of luck in the future.

Sincerely,

Katy Mason

Here's what I got back from him this morning

Ok katy. I suggest you put your finances in place before you wast anyone elses time towing backwards and forwards with e-mails and phone calls etc. I have spoken with other people whom you have being in contact with and it appears you had the same story for them as well. Sincerely Oliver

Ummmmmm WTF? First, He's the first person I've spoken with about going out of the country. I do believe he's a liar and somewhat of a cheat since he refused to help me with the work permit crap. Needless to say, I'm not going to Ireland anytime soon and I'm seriously pissed that he's insulting me when (i thought) I was polite and professional. grrrr
