I've changed my mind, once again. I have now determined that this page is going to a Page of Lists. So being, it will have a multitude of lists. These lists will be of a pretty random variety, just depends on what I'm feeling list-y about. [Ha! as if list-y is an adjective.]
Anyhow, I am now a girl with a plan, and the plan is to make lists. Many, many lists.
And, I'm off! . . .

And, in closing, here's a quote from the movie Music From Another Room. It's on what love is. I think it's a really good definition and it correctly describes the feelings involved. So, here ya go:
You know how when you're listening to music playing from another room? And you're singing along because it's a tune that you really love? Then a door closes or a train passes so you can't hear the music anymore, but you sing along anyway... and, no matter how much time passes, when you hear the music again you're still in exact same time with it. That's what it's like.
