Calmed down a bit from my girls-only rant this morning. My very awesome boss took all of her direct-reports out to lunch today, and we ate at Lala Rokh. It's a Persian restaurant, very charming and almost too dainty for our boisterous group of publishing house loud-mouths. These are steak and scotch people mostly, and the delicate vegetarian communal appetizers raised some eyebrows. I had a rose-flavored baklava-like thing for dessert that was, well, odd. But the outing cheered me up and I'm beginning to really feel at home in my new company.

So here are the answers that nobody got to last night's music meme:

2) I would walk with my people if I could find them (Third Eye Blind/Deep Inside Of You)
4) Fuck you, I’m a survivor (Lenny Kravitz/Mr.Cab Driver)
5) I’d like to see you out some night, dressed up like a teenage porn star (Jump,Little Children/I Love My Guitar)
9) Rats in the front room, roaches in the back (Grandmaster Flash/The Message)
11) If everybody grows up with high self-esteem, who’s going to dance in our strip clubs? (Lazyboy/Underwear Goes Inside The Pants)
12) Shop as usual. And avoid panic buying (Negativland/Escape From Noise)
13) They get so angry, like tiny children, denied their candy, I laugh right at them (The Waitresses/I Know What Boys Like)
14) It’s a trip and a half (Joan Osborne/Lets Just Get Naked)
16) She pulls her dinner from her pocket (Jane's Addiction/Jane Says)

jimmystagger would have totally gotten some of those 80s ones. I'll have to post another one for him.
