Dizzy's Ten Post Round-Up

ImageChef.com - Custom comment codes for MySpace, Hi5, Friendster and more I need a vacation. I don't mean, jus' some time off. I mean a real vacation, that starts with words like "Bahamas" or "Jamaica" and ends with me nodding off after drinking too many Mojitos.

I just got done with what I like to call my "Anti-procrastination Week". I mean, things had piled up so bad that I was seriously considering calling Merry Maids to clean up my house for me so I could actually get things done. It's my own fault, though. I forgot to pick up something else while I was deciding to add to the procrastination pile and then all of a sudden I had too much to do and didn't know where the heck to start.

But, I'm done. Fini. My to-do list is, thankfully, empty (or mostly, so). So, now, all that's left is blogging.

Oh...and music. I was watching Music Choice (per usual) and I decided to switch music channels and basically came across one that plays, predominantly, "Old School" R&B (that's pretty much any R&B music produced before 1995). So all these songs I grew up with and all the songs my girlfriends and I would commit to memory are popping up on the telly and it suddenly occurs to me to ask, "Whatever happened to...?"

I love the interweb. It's fabulous. A universe full of useless information is available at the click of mouse. I won't rehash everything that I found, but I will present to you my findings with a link and with some music (of course).
