Wallowing

As usual, I'm a little late in picking up this challenge I found over at Veace, but it was just too fun in a morose way. The challenge: create a playlist/cd with the Saddest Songs in the World. I used only what was currently in my iTunes library, so I'm hampered by the fact that the Counting Crows aren't in there. I think I made up for it with the Jayhawks.

Anyway, here it is:
Suite No. 5 in C minor for solo Cello -- Pablo Casals
Ann Jane -- The Jayhawks
I Wish I Was the Moon -- Neko Case
Love Has No Pride -- Bonnie Raitt
That's How I Knew -- Aimee Mann
Blue -- The Jayhawks
Too Long at the Fair -- Bonnie Raitt
Runnin' Out of Fools -- Neko Case
Death Before Dawn -- Liz Phair (This might not be the actual title.)
New Favorite -- Alison Krauss & Union Station
I Want You -- Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Idaho -- Josh Ritter
Goldberg Variations Aria Da Capo -- Glen Gould

Filler

There is a post I'm working on, but finding the time has been difficult.
However, I had to take a moment to demonstrate just how much this program has warped me. Yesterday, I got sooooo excited because these books came in the mail.

Cultural Citizenship: Cosmopolitanism, Consumerism, and Television in a Neoliberal Age
and
Otherwise Than Being: Or Beyond Essence

You should notice that neither of these books are on the required reading list to the left. Nope, these are for other projects and "fun." It just doesn't get anymore geeky than that.
