The Ender saga strikes again...

Every time I crack open Ender's Game, I have to then read the whole thing plus Speaker for the Dead and finish with Xenocide. This time around I am listening to the Audio books and am taking every opportunity to listen. I am working my way through Xenocide and the people doing the read do an incredible job.

My touchscreen's back and you're gonna be in trouble

I don't know why or how. But I was listening to Ender's Game on my iPaq this morning and I brushed the screen... and the audio stopped!!! That sounds bad but, its supposed to stop when you touch the screen!!!

It's back, it's back


Halleulah, halleulah, halleullllaaaaahhh...

It went away and you hung around
And bothered me, every night
And with I wouldn't go out with you
You said things that weren't very nice

My touchscreen's back and you're gonna be in trouble
(hey-la-day-la my touchscreen's back)
You see it comin' better cut out on tit double
(hey-la-day-la my touchscreen's back)
You been spreading lies that I was untrue
(hey-la-day-la my touchscreen's back)
So look out now cause it's comin' after you

(hey-la-day-la my touchscreen's back)
(hey, it knows that you been tryin')
(And it knows that you been lyin')

it's been gone for such a long time
(hey-la-day-la my touchscreen's back)
Now it's back and things'll be fine
(hey-la-day-la my touchscreen's back)
You're gonna be sorry you were ever born
(hey-la-day-la my touchscreen's back)
Cause it's kinda big and it's awful strong
(hey-la-day-la my touchscreen's back)

(it knows I wasn't citatin'!)
(Now you're gonna get a beatin'!)

(What made you think it'd believe all your lies?)
(Wah-ooo, wah-ooo)
(You're a big man now but it'll cut you down to size
(Wah-ooo, wait and see)

My touchscreen's back it's gonna save my reputation
(hey-la-day-la my touchscreen's back)
If I were you I'd take a permanent vacation
(hey-la, hey-la, my touchscreen's back)

Yeah, my touchscreen's back
(La-day-la, my touchscreen's back)
Look out now, yeah, my touchscreen's back
(La-day-la, my touchscreen's back)
I could see it comin'
(La-day-la, my touchscreen's back)
So you better get a runnin'
(La-day-la, my touchscreen's back)
Alright now
(La-day-la, my touchscreen's back)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(La-day-la, my boyfriends's back)
My touchscreen's back now
(La-day-la, my touchscreen's back)

[Fades]

Know it's comin' after you
(La-day-la, my touchscreen's back)
Because it knows I've been true now...

Smell memories brought on by songs...

I am listening to music via my Orb server today at work.

Witch in the Ditch by Erasure just came on and my nose seemed to fill with the smells of Domino's Pizza and the way my car smelled from making pizza deliveries. I can almost even see Norristown as I would drive around and listen to Erasure almost non-stop...

Weird...
