in my belly

last night was pretty uneventful. i met up with a couple of friends and we went to a chinese restaurant for my faux new year celebration. the place was really cool and service very good (for those interested it's the great work at victory and olive in burbank) and i stuffed myself silly. after that i went home and watched alias (love jennifer garner's hair this season!) and painted a big poster frame with my roommate. we're going to put our mallrats poster in it but wanted to paint it to match. i know- we never do this kind of home crafty stuff.

i just found out i have been tagged by lyn of knitties with that music thing that's been going around (sounds like the flu). here goes:

1.) Total amount of music files on your computer:
i am not sure really. i just got my computer working again after about 2 years without any internet service so i only started downloading songs again. i have also been putting some of my cds on the computer in the hopes that i get an mp3 player one of these days. i would say maybe 100-200 songs right now. but i own probably about 400 cds and many more live show tapings of favorite artists.

2.) The last CD you bought was:
tough. i work in music and i have friends who do, too, so lots of times i can get cds for free(i know- poor me). the last cd i can recall buying is pinback, life in abaddon. very good cd. they're a sort of alternative (in the vein of modest mouse and the postal service) band.

3.) What is the song you last listened to before reading this message?
i was listening to a valentine's day mix i made last night for my friends to make sure everything sounded ok. the last song probably before i turned off the car was the yeah yeah yeah's song maps.

4.) What are your five favorite songs and why they mean the most to you:
favorites are pretty hard to pick and i wasn't into music when i was younger so certain songs really don't remind me of events. but i will list 5 songs i like a lot.

the cure- just like heaven: i just love this song. it's so catchy and sweet and makes me think of driving with the top down.

jason mraz- halfway home: i remember hearing this song for the first time and just really relating to that feeling of being a little lost and not knowing what's in store but just doing your best. it also reminds me of living in san diego, which is always good times.

rachael yamagata- woman: this song is just really good cause i think a lot of us have felt the way that she does in this song- that we may never find love and just that frustration when something doesn't work out.

tracy chapman- fast car: i really like songs/books/movies about driving, road trips, and that stuff. kind of odd, i know, but i dream of road tripping through the us one day.

garbage- when i grow up: i can just totally relate to this song. and shirley manson is my idol. she's so cool.

5). What 3 people are you going to pass this baton to and why?
whoever sees this and wants to play, consider yourself tagged.
