Ed had this on his blog and I decided to try it. Then I decided to try it again. It was a slow night and MyHusband was in Pennsylvania. I didn’t cheat. These are exactly as they came up. I only put the songs I don’t want my kids to hear (Sex, drugs, and profanity) and a playlist of slow songs to put me to sleep on my music player so it’s an odd list…I am so happy Conway Twitty didn’t come up. It would be embarrassing if anyone knew I listened to that. :)
Here are the instructions:
1. Put your music player on shuffle.
2. Press forward for each question.
3. Use the song title as the answer to the question.
4. NO CHEATING.

Do I do two songs for each question as you did?
January 27th, 2008 at 1:07 pm
If you want. However you want to do it.
January 27th, 2008 at 1:32 pm
“MyHusband was in Pennsylvania. I didn’t cheat.”
Way to be strong!
January 27th, 2008 at 1:54 pm
I knew you’d be proud of me.

It’s the meme that keeps on giving.
I got bored and decided to use only the children’s music genre to answer the questions. Drug–This Little Pig, Describes the President–Unpack Your Adjectives from the Best of Schoolhouse rock.
January 27th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
Now that I know you’re a pork addict, it changes things…kinda. But kinda not. :) Unpack Your Adjectives. That is great!

I totally understand not wanting to let you kids listen to propagandhi. But it should happen eventually. Especially the one who likes to shake her fist, it will just reinforce the habit!
January 29th, 2008 at 5:29 am
Holy shit I can’t wait to do this and by the way I had nooooo idea you had that kind of taste in music. I heart you.
January 29th, 2008 at 2:35 pm
Anthony - I’m looking forward to the day I find copies of records they don’t want me to know about tucked in their sock drawer.
Frowning Bill - I’d love to see your list. I heart you too.
