my playlist is on random.
and i'm discovering all sorts of songs i never knew i had.
such as this one (how tragic that i was unaware of a U2 album!):

You're kept awake dreaming someone else's dream
Coffee is cold but it'll get you through
Compromise that's nothing new to you.
Let's see colors that have never been seen
Let's go places no one else has been

You're in my mind all of the time
I know that's not enough
Well if the sky can crack there must be someway back
To love and only love


also, there's a part of me that's grumpy about how easy the internet makes everything these days. it used to be a talent to change html settings on blogs. and to be able to use photoshop instead of sites like picnik. but, i suppose the days of intense user friendliness are upon us.
