God I wish I could go on Monday. Why am I committed to so many projects? *smacks head*
Off topic but, I'm hosting a student from Chile for two weeks and she's arriving on Sunday. I'm so nervous/excited! They told me her English is fairly good--and I hope so because my Spanish is awful!
Does anyone have the track listings for Chess? My computer is only reading them as track numbers. My version is different from Lexi's version, we labelled them a bit different. Mine does not include "A Taste of Pity" if that helps.

I'll post them in a minute.
Thank you. You can just PM me. I'm so annoyed that the names weren't put on the discs.

Here's the complete song listing. A lot of them are essentially combined songs, but I listed them as separate songs. For example, the I Know Him So Well reprise leads directly into the Finale. Also, some of the songs are only a couple of lines long and I combined them into one MP3 file when making the files, but I have no idea where you cut them on your version.
I suppose you'd rather have someone who has your version post the titles of your songs, but I thought this might help if no one is available to do that right now. :)

Anatoly and Molokov
Where I Want to Be

ETA: Sorry for posting this rather than PMing you -- I didn't see your last message.

That's alright, it doesn't really matter. Thank you.
Chess!
Apparently I now have every official Chess recording in existence. That's sort of weird.

I actually recently deleted a lot from the OBC and concept albums from my computer. I rarely listened to them; the orchestrations seemed thin and most of the performers' voices weren't anything to write home about. I still like Judy Kuhn's Nobody's Side, No Contest is fun, and there are some other standout tracks that I kept, but other than that, I can really do without everything except the Benefit and Danish recordings.
Ok, I really do have a hair appointment, and I really should go before I get wrapped up in Chess talk. Later!

Bye, Lexi!
Yeah... I like the Danish recording a lot, and obviously the benefit is amazing. I've listened to the concept a bit but I'm not crazy about it... now I have the OBC, another concert version, and a recording in Swedish. I was like, "I don't know when I'm going to get around to listening to these things, but sure!" I'm sort of OCD about having full albums, though, so I'd rather have the whole album than pick and choose songs. Most of the time I just won't import things to iTunes if I don't plan on listening to them.

I'm mad. I ordered the Aida CD from Amazon on Sunday and I still haven't gotten it yet.

Amazon's been slow lately I think. I'm waiting on a few things myself.
The thing is, I got an e-mail saying that my CD was shipped out on monday, so if it's anything then I think it's UPS

Amazon is slow sometimes..I remember ordering my iPod car adapter and it took about a month to come.
I was able to remember my songs from your list Lexi, thank you.

Chess! How I heart thee...
I'm not gonna lie, I'm having quite the good day...for the first time this week really. And to top it off, I get to sing tonight in our concert (I haven't had a voice all week), that my parents are coming to!
Alright everyone, I am off to write my last exam.
Good luck, Sarah!
Good luck!
Hi, all!
Just watched the Martha segment (Thanks for the link!) Martha can do some pretty neat stuff, but interviewing is not on her list of skills. The kids and Daddy Adam were adorable. I was assuming her name was pronounced SIB-el not sa-BELL but since she was pronuncing their last name wrong who knows if the first was right either.
Either way, the cookies did sound like they'd actually be tasty. I think grocery shopping for allergen free food might be pricy because everything is specialized, but it's good to know that allergy ridden folks aren't stuck with just the boring stuff!

It's sa-BELL.
I think it's a cool, unique name. I've always liked the name Bella, too.
I don't know what this says about me, but I totally just laughed out loud at the "OMG, Collins is a cannibal!" rentsecret.
ooh, I forgot to look.
I call MAD amounts of bull**** on number 11.
11? Isn't that the one about Anthony's invisible eyelashes? That's kind of true. :-P
The anti-Adam, pro-Anthony one.
