My back feels somewhat better! I am cautiously optimistic! I'm going to punctuate every sentence with an exclamation point!

No, seriously, I think that massage therapy yesterday + muscle relaxer last night = a good bit of relief. It's still stiff and a bit sore, but nooooothing like it has been for the past few days. Like, I can actually turn my head without yelling obscenities.

Now the question: Do I resume normal activities and plunge head-on into all the things I've not gotten done this week? Or ease back in, lest I reinjure myself? I want to take on the world, because I'll be honest, I've been bored out of my mind and feeling like a complete waste of space this week. But I don't know if that's wise. "Taking it easy" is not exactly my forte' though.

Actually I really want some Chinese food, which is odd, because I'm normally not a fan. But right now, I'd kill for a big order of fried rice. And I know that if I eat Chinese food, I'm probably going to wind up with a migraine due to the MSG and I'll just be all complaining and whiny again. But I'll probably go anyway, because I'm weak and I have no willpower.

I'm just battling with myself...don't mind me...

glad to help, since i know you are someone who cares about accuracy!

i said it is one of my favourite songs, but to pick just one by tm is difficult. i'm real fond of "delicate cutters," "green," "hate my way," "finished," and really anything off their first album and the "chains changed" ep that followed it. great band!

It's crazy how often that song is mislabeled. I've seen at least three different locations where it's incorrect. Weird! I am glad to know the real/accurate title.

And yes, they are incredible. I love Kristin Hersh's voice. It's gravelly, yet still femimine. Have you heard any of her 50 Ft. Wave stuff? The girl can rock OUT.

i blame the internet, and illiterate people perpetuating misinformation through file sharing and such--same as the current tendency to file artists by first name rather than last. no library or record store does that--it began with file sharing by illiterates. (and yes, my itunes lists all artist by last name, because i am geeky like that.)

yes, i like kristin hersh's solo stuff and a little bit of 50 ft wave. i like it all, but nothing compares to tm, especially their earlier stuff.

btw, you made me a fan of holly golightly! thanks!

I was just listening to Holly recently. Glad you like her, too. :-) I'm trying to think if I've found any new stuff that you might enjoy. If I do, I'll make you another mix CD.

And I'm sure that that's how a lot of songs (and artists) get mislabeled. It spans well past rock and pop music, too. I recently had to correct a friend of mine and tell him that Mozart did NOT actually compose Moonlight Sonata.

Now I'm in a Throwing Muses mood. I'm listening to Counting Backwards, as I type..

are you on ilike or last.fm?
it's fun to see what friends are listening to, and how much, heh! true confessions, i like sarah mclachlan! hee!

I've tried to do last.fm, but I can't get the darned thing to work!

I've never been a fan of Sara McLachlan, but I tell ya, that commercial for animal cruelty that uses "Angel.." as its background music...wow. I can't even watch it, and they couldn't have picked a more perfect song.

I guess my true confession would be ABBA, but I think everyone knows I love them! :-P
