Time Is On My Side + Music

Hola! Did you set your clocks ahead Saturday night? I hope Mr. Google did so this post gets published on time. Saturday morning, my internal clock was already off. I didn't wake up for breakfast until almost 8:30 which is about four hours later than I've been getting up. TW was starting to worry that I was sick. Friday night I ate very well so I was way satiated. I thought I might share with you a scene that happens regularly around here regarding time.

TW says I’m a slave to the clock; that I clock watch like someone who has a nine-to-five job. I say she’s wrong, of course.

Here’s her reasoning. I get three squares a day; my fave being my dinner of Fancy Feast Grilled Tuna in Gravy. I get that at 4 pm sharp. TW thinks just cos she goes missing most afternoons and doesn’t give me my gut rot (Soulistic grain free with pumpkin soup) until 3 pm, I’m supposed to wait until at least 6 to get my FF. Nope. Even if I just got through chowing down on gut rot at 3:59, I still start crying at 4 for the FF.

CK: Have you looked at the time? It’s 4 o’clock.

TW: How can you possibly be hungry? You just finished eating your Luna Tuna that you like so much.

CK: You are a liar! You mean that gut rot of which I barely tolerate? I want some real food. Where’s my tuna!

TW: Can you wait a little while?

CK: No! This is my feeding time and I want my food!

At this point, it’s already 4:02 but I get my tuna. I eat one or two mouthfuls and save the rest until later when I’m really hungry. This aggravates TW so I’ve accomplished both my goals.

IMPORTANT WORD FROM OUR SPONSORS before we get to the music! I entered the Petco Love Changes Everything contest to raise more money for UCFCC (Union City Feral Cat Committee). If'n the mood strikes you, I'd appreciate if you'd go to the link and Like my stunning and touching photo with Pop. UCFCC will be eligible for a $500 grant.

It's time for the Music Movies Me part of the show for those fans of music. I'm joining the blog hop over at Curious as a Cathy. This weeks prompt is songs with color in their title. Strangely enough, most of the songs that first popped into our mind were songs containing "black" and "white." However, black and white are not colors because they do not have specific wavelengths so I'll save them for another week.

Our iTunes library contains what looks like a hunnert different songs with green in the title. Everything from "It's Not Easy Being Green" to CCR's "Green River" with lots of green in between. There's also bands with green in their name: Green Day, Green on Red, Al Green, and Green.

Saturday is St. Paddy's Day so I'm gonna pick a couple songs by Irish bands and a couple of songs with green. Per usual we couldn't find the song we really wanted. This should be fun.

When TW was in her 20s, she and Aunt Pauline went to see the Clancy Brothers in concert at Carnegie Hall for St. Patrick's Day. TW left a fan and went out and bought their Greatest Hits which she'd play during each year's Paddy's party at the old house although this isn't much of a party song.

Here's another one from our iTunes library. This is a better song for dancing and drinking. I'm presuming here that tan is a color. Heh heh. Raise your glass, kick up your heels and dance.

This tune comes from our collection. Gotta love the name of the band even though Polecats aren't real cats. These guys are hep cats.

Some of you guys know TW used to groupie "work for" follow R.E.M. so she's making me include one of their songs. The things I do to keep the peace. She picked this one cos it has green in the title and she saw them about a hunnert million times on the U.S. leg of the Reconstruction tour.

I wish I could have access to my old St. Paddy's Day playlist so I could have shared it with you but that disappeared with Grooveshark. There were some goodies on it as you can imagine.

I'll be back on Wednesday with a giveaway so mark that date on your calendar. Until then keep rockin' and do eat the green nip.
