two awesome things happened tonight in my presence:
i just spent the past hour chronicling my life in song.
why?
i have no clue.
but it sounded like fun, so i did it.
what i did was remember what songs were influential in my musical choices and stylings. one song would remind me of another song and then onward and upward i got a list of about 90 songs that bring me up to speed to about the end of college and the beginning of my adult life. i’d have to say it’s incomplete because i don’t really know where to lead off from after college. i think my musical choices have either stayed constant since then or have regressed into musicals and disney music. so i can’t go on at this time with the list.
i think i’ll publish my list sometime soon. it’s pretty excellent and has a lot of different kinds of songs and all in all makes sense to me because it shows pretty big life changing moments of my life where genres either grow or fade into another. i totally recommend everyone doing this. it’s really eerie how accurate i was or at least seem to be.
so there. great things about maggie that YOU should know. take that, america!

this will always make me happy because it involves some of my favorite things:
Suitable Birthday Gift #2
Cash.
Straight up cash is perfectly fine for a birthday gift. this gift insures that i will get something that i will enjoy! i’ll take any denomination as long as they are American dollars (non counterfeit please) i’m a-okay with that. plus, you don’t have to ship it. you can send it in an envelope or even paypal some monies because i’m so internet savvy.
but to be honest, i do really like to unwrap a gift. it’s the fun part of having a birthday. you get to tear off the paper and open the box and have the surprise look. aw, fun!
but i guess you can wrap up the cash in a festive birthday box. yeah. that could work, too…
