It wasn’t until I decided to clean out the stink heap I call the Fortress of Solitude that I realized I didn’t type up my Post-it Note Morning songs for June. I know only one person cares, me. However, I’d like to point out as far as iwilldare.com is concerned I am the most important [...]

A little over a year ago, I noticed that I woke up singing a song nearly every morning. Because I am weird I decided to keep track of these songs. Each morning after stumbling from the bathroom I would sit down at my desk and write the name of the song I was singing [...]

No commentary, I’m busy working on charts and shit.

Okay, I just looked, May 31st will mark the anniversary of the Post-it Note Morning Song. I can’t wait to do the year-end wrap up. I am convinced that “Why Can’t I” by Liz Phair will be on there at least a dozen times. I have no idea why I wake up so often singing [...]

First of all, I had a dream about Dawson’s Creek. In my dream, Pacey chose me over Joey and Andie. We made out while the other two cried. This dream is indicative that the cold I have has eaten my brain. It could also be that during the 24 hours that transpired from Friday at [...]

This Post-it Note Morning song list puzzles me more than any other, but probably only because I’ve been pondering it. I mean how can one brain go from The Ramones stuck in the subconscious one day and two days later wake up singing Huey Lewis & The News? That should just not be possible.

There’s a life-sized plastic bat that usually sits on the floor of the Fortress of Solitude. It’s a squeaky bat, that makes noise when you squeeze it. I’m not sure how the bat came to live with me, but the kidlings love to play with it whenever they come over. This is why it’s on [...]

I woke up this morning with the teeniest, tiniest snippet of a song floating through my brain. Over and over again my head was singing “they’ll put you in a cage, ba ba something bye bye my love.” I was worried because I didn’t immediately recognize the song, and when that happens I go on [...]

I’ve decided that sometime during my Christmas break, I’m going to put all my Post-It Note Morning songs into some sort of Excel file. Then we’ll really be able to get some important information, because all really important information comes in spreadsheet form.
This month there was only one really horrifying (maybe two depending on your [...]

The list of Post-it Note Morning Songs grows ever longer. It seems each month I have to spend more time looking up the songs that I’m singing when I wake up. This, of course, means we’re delving deeper and deeper into my psyche. Today I learned that on the 22nd of October I was singing [...]

Help! I woke up this morning with a song in my head and I don’t know the name of the song and it’s driving me absolutely crazy.
It’s some alt-rock duet from the mid-90s that much I’m sure of. It’s some guy and maybe someone like Hope Sandoval (Mazzy Star) or the chick from the [...]

I was late for work this morning because I spent all my before work time obsessively Googling a song lyric. This morning’s Post-It Note song was stuck in my head, but I had no idea what it was.
I just had a line and melody playing on repeat, “I won’t tell anybody something something something use [...]
