scoop me up and never let me go

[hedda62]

Just for fun while I'm waiting to leave for the airport: the Body of Work playlist. A work in progress, of course, though I've been building this one for about a year. (I'll happily take suggestions, though really there are only so many songs about hearts and eyes one can deal with.) With YouTube links to a few of my favorites.
