Theme Songs

Theme songs are important. I try to think of a theme song for each era of my life. At various points my theme songs have included "Crash" by the Primitives; "Six Feet Under" by No Doubt, "Dear God" by XTC, "Candy" by Iggy Pop. Well, you get the picture. Right now my theme song is "Hell Yes" by Alkaline Trio.
My animals also have theme songs. Cixous usually has the Scooby Doo theme song as her own. Right now it is "Radar Love". She is wearing an E-collar and it is hilarious. Every time I see her, the song goes right through my head. Austin's theme song had been Chumbawumba's "Tub Thumping" but I think it is now something by the Dave Mathews Band. He is a total frat boy. Kurzweil does not yet have a theme song. I think he might be MGMT sort of guy. But I am not certain. Still trying to figure him out.
When I hear certain songs, I will forever associate them with my animals. Sometimes they now make me cry since I miss them so much.
