Wish list.

[Edit: I was working on this a couple of days ago before real life so rudely interrupted. It's really too late now, but what the hell...]

You know that wish list meme that went around a while back? I did not do it. I feel really conflicted -- I think most of these things are things that I should be able to do or get for myself. And there are other things, such as "I really wish I felt I made a difference in the world," or "I wish I felt I was special" which I need to figure out for myself. (I have a problem hearing nice things people say to/about me sometimes since it doesn't confirm my own view of myself). That said...
( The meme. )

( If wishes were horses... there'd be a lot of cleaning up to do around here. )

I'm totally flaking. I am not doing the tasks on my behavior log/task list, which means I should not be on LJ, since that is the reward I have set myself for getting stuff done (which is also why I've been on less this week, among other reasons).

Just for the record, I have really great, interesting kids.

Speaking of kids, K has been asking for a specific track (Gaudite, by whom I can't remember just off the top of my head) on geekchick's Christmas CD. I complimented K on his sophisticated taste in music, and he said "Yeah, it reminds me of the music from "Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time"." *facepalm*

There oughta be a law...

... against vocalists attempting songs which are beyond their vocal abilities or emotional maturity level.


I am not a traditionalist when it comes to holiday music: I like all sorts, and I don't mind "contemporary" versions. That said...

Avril Lavigne covered "O Holy Night." **shudder**

(In the spirit of open mindedness, I actually, listened to about 30 seconds of it on iTunes.)
