Today was mostly spent sleeping, cleaning and then shopping with my sis for a couple of hours. lol. Totally rearranged the bedroom, it feels more spacious now. Or at least, will tomorrow after the piles of clothes are picked up. *G* Nate is not at all sure he likes the result of the rearranging, but I'm sure he'll adjust shortly.
You have to pick a band or a singer {only one} and then answer the questions below using only lyrics from their songs. I gave it a shot. Found it really rather hard when you have to pick only one artist instead of picking and choosing from all your faves, as some don't 'quite' fit. Anyway, Ani avoids capitals in her lyric sheets, so there are none here either. *G*
1. Band/Singer: Ani DiFranco
2. Are you male or female?
squint your eyes and look closer
i'm not between you and your ambition
i am a poster girl with no poster
i am thirty-two flavors and then some
and i'm beyond your peripheral vision
so you might want to turn your head
3. Describe yourself:
some people wear their smile like a disguise
those people who smile a lot watch the eyes
i know cause i'm like that a lot
you think everything's okay
it is till it's not
4. How do other people feel about you?
they say goldfish have no memory
i guess their lives are much like mine
the little plastic castle
is a surprise every time
5. How do you feel about yourself?
i'm a pixie
i'm a paperdoll
i'm a cartoon
i'm a chipper cheerful free for all
and i light up a room
i'm the color me happy girl
miss live and let live
and when they're out for blood
i always give
6. Describe your girlfriend/boyfriend:
it's a narrow margin
just room enough for regret
in the inch and a half between
hey, how ya been?
and
can i kiss you yet?
so we talk like
nervous neighbors over a tall fence
true love
but for lack of providence
7. What would you rather be doing?
i'm going to go ahead and go boldly because a little bird told me that jumping is easy, that falling is fun
up until you hit the sidewalk, shivering and stunned
and they can call me crazy if i fail
all the chance that i need is one-in-a-million
and they can call me brilliant
if i succeed
8. Describe where you live:
she crawls out on a limb
and begins to build her home
it's enough just to look around
to know she's not alone
9. Describe how you love:
and i stood out on the porch thinking fight, fight, fight
at all costs,
but instead i let you in, just like i've always done
and i sat you down and offered you a beer
and across the kitchen table i fired several rounds,
but you were still sitting there when the smoke cleared
10. Share a few words of wisdom:
how pleased can one sun setting make you
if you humble yourself to it?
how grateful can you really say that you are
just to be here and live through it?
and when beauty asks a question how often do you reply?
