Letting the days go by...

[scarlettina]

I don't know who's at the helm today at KMTT-FM, but for the last hour, a lot the songs have been about awareness of mortality and using your time wisely and so on (Green Day's "Time of Your Life," Pearl Jam's "Just Breathe," Rod Stewart's "Maggie May," and now Talking Heads' "Once in a Lifetime").

I love all of these songs and never fail to enjoy them when I hear them. But when they're all programmed together this way? I can't decide if I want to drop everything I'm doing and go hike my way across the planet with nothing but a backpack and a camera, or just throw myself off a cliff. All this musical introspection is hard to take, especially on a gray Seattle day when I'm working at home and feeling the press of time.

Here comes the twister...

ETA: Oh wait: Now they're playing Joe Cocker's "You Can Leave Your Hat On." That makes up for a lot.
