If your life were a movie, what would the soundtrack be?
Here's how this meme works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, winamp, media player, iPod).
2. Put it on shuffle.
3. Press play.
4. For every question, type the song that's playing.
5. New question-- press the next button.
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool.
Opening Credits:
Over My Shoulder — I am Kloot

A conjunction of drones sounds about right.

Hang on Little Tomato — Pink Martini

She Smiled Sweetly — Rolling Stones

Here it Comes — Modest Mouse
Considering I didn't go, maybe the line "the place and the time when we knew everything would go wrong" is appropriate.

Honestly, I didn't cheat.

I Need Some Fine Wine and You, You Need to be Nicer — the Cardigans
...and I don't even drink.
