Kaelyn, let me tell you about my day at work today. I arrived about 5 minutes late to the sound of the Russian equivalent of Jock Jams playing on the stereo. I thought I was going to die. After I got totally pumped up for patternmaking to that cd 2 times, Svetlana went over to the stereo and started looking through the cd's which can only mean one thing. I break out into a cold sweat of panic...please...not...Unbreak My Heart...anything but that cd...even Russian Jock Jams. It is, of course, the Unbreak My Heart cd.
It is literally soul crushing to me when this cd comes on. I have the order of songs and the lyrics to every song memorized. The record number of plays in a row on this cd is 5 at which point Alice shut it down. So anyway, when I heard the first cords of Unbreak My Heart and was simultaneously experiencing the first symptoms of a panic attack, I went into the bathroom and wired my headphones from the ipod in my back pocket, up the back of my shirt, under my giant mop of hair, through a scarf and into my left ear (the ear that Svetlana can't see from her sewing machine). I felt crazy, but also crazy awesome smart. Hahahahahahaha.
In case you were wondering, my right ear took down the track listing for you.
Unbreak My Heart : Toni Braxton
Total Eclipse of the Heart : Bonnie Tyler
Yesterday : The Beatles
You Can Leave Your Hat On : Joe Cocker
Bryan Adams : Please Forgive Me
My Heart Will Go On : Céline Dion
Without You : Mariah Carey
Hold Me for a While : Rednex
From This Moment : Shania Twain
I Just Called to Say I Love You : Stevie Wonder
I Will Survive : Gloria Gayner
Angie : The Rolling Stones
There are more songs, some which are not in English, some which I don't know and some which I forgot because my left ear was cuttin cat faces in the pines.
