Asking for your help

This will sound totally stupid and invented but anyway. In 2008 I bought the Dixie Chicks album "Taking the Long Way" which I love very much. My sister, unfortunately, does too. So she borrowed the CD from me and had it in her car. She then had an accident whereupon they exchanged her car radio stating that because of the radio the car's battery was always low.

...though the draconian eating habits are returning to prevent me from getting to the point where I can no longer wear my "thin clothes." It's still nice to get the occasional hairy-eyeball stare from some random hottie on the subway in the morning. Like today. Some shady, attractive man was staring me down. It was nice to feel pretty. I got an invitation to Thanksgiving from my sister for the hubby...

Very much at random, I started thinking of my grandfather just now. Perhaps it was because I was singing. But all I was doing was transferring leftovers from my slow cooker into Tupperware, and suddenly I missed him. I didn't really know him, to be honest, and I think that's what feels worst. I wish he had lived to see me become who I am today, so that I could share with him all the things that ...

It's especially bad for women in academia--it's nigh-impossible to raise a ...

... want my top bands that's a whole different list, with The Beatles exception.  Currently, my top 5 most listened to artists on Last.fm are: Lacrimosa, Regina Spektor, Lacuna Coil, Enya, are Sarah McLaughlan.  But since I mostly listen to my 8k song library on random, that has more to do with the volume of music I have by those artists, since the more I have, the more often they'll get played.
