Something to do till the brain wakes up

1. Find the top 100 songs from the year you graduated from high school. (It's the internet. You can do it.)
(Huh... Where is instruction #2?)
3. Cut and paste them into your journal.
4. Bold the ones you like(d).
5. Underline your favorite.
6. Strike through the songs you loathe.
7. Italicize the songs you're pretty sure you've never heard.

Man.

90s music sucked. *g*

[stillsostrange.livejournal.com]

At least Top-100 type stuff. All kinds of music I love came out in the '90s, but I can't find much of it on the charts.

Ugh. 1996 was the year I worked in Georgia for 7 months - a particularly unpleasant experience. This is the soundtrack of that time.

(Also, I didn't realise that I'm that much older than you. *sigh* I keep forgetting I'm not 20-ish anymore.)

It's the aura of crazy cat lady--it makes me old beyond my years.

[stillnotbored.livejournal.com]

Yes, but it doesn't make you old beyond my years. All of you are making me feel like an antique. *g*

Heh. I'd forgotten about Kriss Kross (mercifully).
