Amusingly limited...

I've been accused (and deservedly so) of being cinelinguistic. In other words, while I cannot go an hour, let alone a day, without quoting music lyrics or Simpson's tidbits, my main source of quotables comes from movie dialogue.

Anyway, that makes me wonder...what else from movies could I corrupt for my own life purposes? Wouldn't a day to day soundtrack be great?

Keep in mind, I don't mean a soundtrack in the sense that all my high school ex-boyfriends think of Don't Go Away Mad when they remember me. Nor am I talking about the fact that I like to play Moby's version of Verb when I'm speeding along in my car.

This is what I want - if I'm sick of the drama brought on by others, wouldn't it be good to hear something like I am a Rock? If I'm hanging with my friends doing nothing in particular but enjoying it immensely, I want happy cheery music going on behind the scenes (think Sunshine and Lollipops).

And yes, if I take Kudzu for a walk late at night, somebody could always warn me about the axe murderer possibly lurking in the shadows, waiting for an unsuspecting victim, but wouldn't it be more fun to open the front door and hear the theme from Halloween?

Can anyone else think of other situation/music pairings for my impending soundtrack?

I would be scared of whatever soundtrack my life would attract.

Truly frightened.

PS. I suck. I just got your email.
