Several excellent decisions

Apart from periodically wanting to crack my coconut heart on his pointed defences I have made several excellent decisions. I will include them in boring list form.

1. Work four days a week for month of July in order to attack manuscript with force.
2. Schedule all social appointments around fictional engagements in diary for Queensland art gallery I found today. Will do this for month of July.
3. Go to sleep before midnight on school nights, starting tomorrow.
4. Eat more vegetables.
5. Can't remember.
6. Something else I can't remember.
7. Oh who cares anyway.
8. Get stupid Talking Heads song out of head, as the days go by, something about being underground, same as it ever was, same as it ever was.
Best method for getting any song ever out of head is to think of Jump by Van Halen, guaranteed success every time. Can't you see me standing here I've got my back against the record machine, I ain't the worst that you've seen, don't you know what I mean, ah go ahead and jump.

When I was in college, the guy who lived across the hall from me in my dorm used to play "Jump" at full volume every day when he got back from classes.

I hate that song. With a vengeance.

Therefore, I will now revert to Talking Heads:

And you may find yourself living in a shotgun shack
And you may find yourself in another part of the world
And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful
Wife
And you may ask yourself-well...how did I get here?

Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/after the moneys gone
Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground.

And you may ask yourself
How do I work this?
And you may ask yourself
Where is that large automobile?
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful house!
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful wife!

Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/after the moneys gone
Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground.

Same as it ever was...same as it ever was...same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...same as it ever was...same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...same as it ever was...

Water dissolving...and water removing
There is water at the bottom of the ocean
Carry the water at the bottom of the ocean
Remove the water at the bottom of the ocean!

Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/in the silent water
Under the rocks and stones/there is water underground.

Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/after the moneys gone
Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground.

And you may ask yourself
What is that beautiful house?
And you may ask yourself
Where does that highway go?
And you may ask yourself
Am I right? ...am I wrong?
And you may tell yourself
My god!...what have I done?

Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/in the silent water
Under the rocks and stones/there is water underground.

Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/after the moneys gone
Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground.

Same as it ever was...same as it ever was...same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...same as it ever was...same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...same as it ever was...

NWJR: Why oh why on earth did you do that? Song must get out of head. Out!
