if anyone needs a full time office job (M-F, 8:30-5:30) in Fairhope, let me know.   Laid back atmosphere, fairly easy, decent pay, benefits, etc.  I need to know ASAP!

I GOT THE JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A REAL ONE, not a crappy desk job that was a filler after graduation.  One that (semi) uses my degree, 4 years of legal experience, and a year of real estate experience.  Plus my salary is dramatically increased, full health and dental benefits.

I start May 22...HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

So I'm working on it, but so far, this is the Soundtrack to my Life as I see it.  With, of course, a little help from my friends.
(this is in no particular order)
1.  In the Middle--Jimmy Eat World.  Colleen, Mike and I used to spend hours upon hours freshman year at SHC downloading music and then jamming out in my room. This song is just a representative of ALL of the songs that we listened to.
2.  I Will Remember You--Sarah McLaughlin.  For a number of reasons, really.  But this song was the graduation song at CKS  not to mention the song used to every sappy event........ever.
3. Anything as sung by Stephen Lynch.  Specifically, the "Big Fat Friend" song.  Gawd, we sat around watching that damn DVD as if our life depended on it.  Good times in Apt 309.
4.  Cadillac--Mest.   Because I can see Vix and Susan..."top down, seat back, rolling in my cadillac..."
5.  New Age Girl- Dead Eye Dick.  Mal and I were pretty infamous for rocking out to this song, but I don't many people who don't sing along with it. ("she don't eat meat, but she sure like the bone...")
6.  Red Rubber Ball- Simon and Garfunkel.  This was the "feel better song" of Mobile Hall, particularly when it came to me, Susan and Vix.  And really, who can't help but smile when singing, "...the morning sun is shining like a red rubber ballllllllllllllllllll..."
7.  Head Over Feet--Alanis.  This was always mine and CMN's song, but it also represents just about every high school dance, middle school dance, etc.  This was the one song everyone loved.
8.  Nothing Else Matters--Metallica.  My I'm-depressed-as-shit song.
9.  Shot Through The Heart--Bon Jovi.  Me and........just about everyone has rocked out to this song.  It's just one that life wouldn't be the same without
10.  500 Miles--The Pretenders.  Becuase anyone who has seen Benny and Joon would agree that this is a great song.
11.  I Want You to Want Me--Cheap Trick.  Mine and Mark's song.  Even after college, we still call each other when we hear it on the radio, or when I get drunk and stupid and decide to kareoke it.
12.  Get Low--Lil John.  Because who can forget the lyrics that made the rounds at SHC--"From the window, to the kitchen, put some hot sauce on my chicken, mmmm that's finger-lickin'..."
13.  Fruitcakes--Jimmy Buffet.  For very obvious reasons.  I heart this song.
14.  (Everybody's Free to) Wear Sunscreen- Baz Lurhman.  Because this song is full of all of the little tidbits of advice that i love to spout at people. And seriously.....WEAR SUNSCREEN!
15.  Lightning Crashes--Live.  Live in general reminds me of Bayfest.  And I love this song.
16.  Bloody Sunday- U2.  Anyone who went through seminar with me understands this one.  And my fascination with Irish lit, music, etc.
17.  Dancing Queen--ABBA.  Because I am one.
18.  Purple People Eater. Ha.  Vix, just for you.
19.  Hakuna Matata.  This is my life's motto.
This is a rough list--feel free to message me more!

everyone has songs that remind them of certain events and certain people. i started to make a list in my head of all of the songs that reminded me of other people, but the list is endless.

so here's your job. if a certain song reminds you of me and you, whether it was from us riding around, dancing to it, singing it, or whatever, message me the name of the song and why it reminds me of you. or you of me.  or whatever.

i'll compile the list in the coming days.

thanks for helping!
