About Me
- Seeking Solace
- I am a college professor who is fumbling through the chaos of academia, rheumatoid arthritis, working on my PhD and just being a 40 something woman. I used to be a lawyer, which made me a snarky little person. I have a wonderful Husband and a German Shepherd named Junior. They help keep me sane.

I can't get enough of this one!
#4. Wish you were here by Pink Floyd
#12. All along the watchtower by Jimi Hendrix (or a cover?)
#17. Pinch me by Bareneaked Ladies
#18 A day in the life by The Beatles
#24 Kodachrome by Paul Simon
All correct!!!!
I love this meme. I might have to do it again, too.
And I love that I know your songs. :)
#1, I know the artist, can't think of the song...
#4, 12, 18, and 24 I knew but they're already guessed (though "all along the watchtower" is originally a Dylan song--but the "some kind of way" (instead of just "some way") I think marks it as Hendrix)
#6, Jump, Van Halen
#7, Waiting on a Friend, the Rolling Stones
#8 I think is Peter Frampton, Show me the Way
#9 is the Who, Bargain
#22 is Stop Draggin' my heart around, Stevie Nicks (& Tom Petty?)
Okay--I actually think I know more, but I want to leave some for the others. So far, I think you have the most compatible music taste with me of any of my blogfriends. :)
everyone! do it! again!
#3 is driving me crazy.
#11 is wonder by natalie merchant
#13 is LA Song by Beth Hart
#25 is smells like teen spirit by nirvana
You all are too good. I didn't think anyone would get Beth Hart.
19. Fallen - Sarah McLachlan
Oooh, #14 is Fleetwood Mac - Thunder Only Happens When Its Raining?? I have to confess that I have no idea what the title is but I can sing almost all the lyrics! Drat!
(Seriously, this is like the first one of the songs I've known on ANY of these meme posts!)
21. pulling mussels from the shell-squeeze
