Shuffle It, Just a Little Bit

The lovely Kelly at Love Well tagged me for an ipod meme. Having only recently learned what a "meme" is, I figured it was high time I participated in one. Because nothing says sophisticated and significant like participating in a low stakes game of musical tag, am I right?

(That reminds me, does anyone remember playing "TV Tag" when you were little? Like, if you got tagged you could only be unfrozen if you yelled out, "Punky Brewster!" or "The Muppet Show!" or "Gilligan's Island!". That was fun, wasn't it? )

Before we get started, I have to tell you that there is one answer in here that stands out to me as particularly funny. I'm wondering if you can guess which one? Or if you are feeling rebellious, just tell me which one you liked the best. And if you don't like any of them, well then, aren't you hard to please? Sheesh, it's Friday for goodness sake. Give a poor girl a break (or a comment as the case may be)...

So here we go:
A Meme for your iPod
Instructions:
1. Put your iPod (or MP3 player) on shuffle.
2. For each question, press the next button to get your answer.
3. YOU MUST WRITE THAT SONG NAME DOWN AS YOUR ANSWER, NO MATTER HOW SILLY IT SOUNDS!
4. Tag some Moms you admire who could use a laugh and a song.

Happy Friday!!
