Music is very important to me. To be sure, you don't develop a fan-crush without loving music. So it's not surprising, that I associate certain music with certain people/times in my life.
Murdock = jazz. I don't know why. But he does.
Roommate (Kalliope) = death metal/Green Day
Ex-BF (and that whole time) = "dirty hippie" music
Spring = Dear Prudence by The Beatles
Summer = Maroon 5
And so on. Music is important and each style reminds me of someone or some place. And each person can make me think of a song or artist that they seem to be represented by.
Also: anytime I wear the flowers my sister made for me...I get the lyrics to San Fransisco stuck in my head.

My Last Will and Testament....
*Edited*
As I'm sharing some happy news with my sister, she says "If you die because of this, just make sure it is in the will that Greg gets your car...and I get your shoes."
She's a gem, that one. So to ensure, that should I die, my wishes are met...here is my "Last Will and Testament" as dictated between my sister and me.
Me: Thanks. And my clothes go to? My books? Movies? Music?
TheSister: Clothes for Jenn. Books to Kristie.
Me: Anything else I'm missing?
TS: Movies and music should be split up amongst us all.
Me: How? That might be hard. would Greg get the laptop too?
TS: Yes, please. Oh, and I get the desk.
Me: Um, no. Dad gets that back.
TS: With music and movies, make a list of people in order of picking and let everyone pick one each, as we go through the list. Until they're gone.
Me: Can't I divide by genre? Or something? Mom gets the musicals, Dad the action, something like that?
TS: Would work.
Me: But that might be considered an unfair division. (You'd for sure get all my 80s movies...or Kristie.) Yeah, let's just do the picking order list thing. Ladies first, by age...then boys, by age. Nephews/niece included.
TS: Good because you have some Disney that the boys would want. (Or she wants for the boys, but we'll let her believe that the boys want them...)
Me: Right, and I don't want you to feel you have to give up your choice to the kids. Plus, this means you and Greg will be top of all the lists since he's the oldest boy...and you're the oldest girl. Plus, oldest male grandchild.
TS: Hey, fair is fair.
Me: It just worked out that way. I'm going to blog about this, I hope you know. That'll totally make it legal.

TheRoommate gets my kitchen stuff, with the understanding that anything she doesn't need/want is given to my family to divide as they will.
Picking order:
Dad (I know he's not a girl, but he IS the ultimate oldest...that counts for something)
Mom
Kristie
TheSister
TheRoommate (she needs in a few rounds, I have movies/music/books she'd love)
Sis-in-Law #1
Jenn (see note above)
Sis-in-Law #2
Niece
Bro-in-Law
TheBrother
TheOtherBrother
Gideon
Jeremiah
Wesley

Disney's Ducks
And no, I don't mean The Mighty Ducks or the Anaheim Ducks. I'll talk about them later.
No, this is a way to tell you guys that I went to DISNEYLAND!! And I loved it. Every minute of it. I have the best aunt in the world. I just had SO. MUCH. FUN. with her. And spent WAY. TOO. MUCH. Oh well!!
Yes, the Happiest Place on Earth, comes complete with the Happiest Ducks on Earth. This particular duo, lives in the shadows of Sleeping Beauty's Castle.
They seemed quite content with their lives, and I'm pretty sure that the tourists feed them well.
I can attest to this, because whilst eating at California Adventure...I may have fed the ducks some AMAZING sour dough...just saying...but that is another post for another time.
Disneyland has the happiest ducks on earth. And probably the richest...note all the pennies that they swim above. So happiest and richest ducks on earth are found at Disneyland.
