You can't make someone love you with a song

This week-end I'm going to meet up with a few friends (and teachers!) from high school. There'll be a lot of catching up to do. I'm taking the plane to Virginia, but commuting by bus from D.C. back to New York on one of those Chinatown buses. It cost me 20 bucks as opposed to the $289 air fare. I hope I won't be too bored on the ride, though.

But seeing as I've taken up Sudoku I think I'll be scribbling numbers like a maniac. Last night I did 15 puzzles, wired on coffee and adrenaline. It's highly addictive, so click the link at your own risk.

I've only been Christmas shopping in my mind, so I'm not really sure when I'm going to get all this done, but I'm excited about my gifts this year. I'm giving out a family gift, i.e. one gift per family, but I think everyone's going to love it. If I had a collar, I'm popping it right about now.

I just figured out why I haven't been able to run my iTunes. I have to log in with my password every time I use it and authorize some songs that I bought off the music store. I've only just uploaded a couple of CDs that I got from the Philippines. The itchyworms' Noontime Show is hilarious. I always laugh out loud when I hear Production Number like I'm listening to it for the first time.

And as I'm proctrastinating, here's the iTunes meme.
