It's Too Fucking Cold To Be Creative

Yesterday was just lovely, what with the blizzard-like conditions. Today isn't looking like it's going to be much better, starting off at about -45. So it is officially too fucking cold for me to even attempt creativity. That and my everything hurts because I slept weird last night.
I haven't done one of these in a while (this particular meme, not memes in general), so here is the soundtrack to my life, for now anyway.

Here's how it works:

1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie

Opening Credits: Heaven is in your mind - Traffic (starting off on a good note, pardon my pun)

Waking Up: Dried up, tied and dead to the world - Marilyn Manson (things went down hill pretty quickly there)

First Day At School: The Reflecting God - Marilyn Manson (This is pretty fitting actually)

Falling In Love: You've got to hide your love away - The Beatles (I wish I could say I was surprised.)

Fight Song: I did it my way - Elvis Presley (this is quite possibly the worst fight song ever.)

Breaking Up: Apple of Sodom - Marilyn Manson and Rasputina (Honest, I don't have that much Manson in my iTunes)

Prom: It's a man's world - James Brown (Don't ask, I have no idea what that means)

Life: Thank you for the venom - My Chemical Romance (sadly, this fits all too well)

Mental Breakdown: Helena - My Chemical Romance (Yeah, I could see that)

Driving: Waitress - Cloud Cult (it's got a pretty good driving beat. I could dig that)

Flashback: A Sunday kind of love - Dinah Washington (good grief)

Getting Back Together: The man comes around - Johnny Cash (I believe this is iTunes way of telling me "when hell freezes over")

Wedding: Rita Sue and Jonesy - Jeff Beal (It's from the Carnivale soundtrack and it's actually really pretty, but kind of sad)

Birth of Child: Love Train - Wolfmother (uh... yeah... weird)

Final Battle: Woman - Wolfmother (not a bad final battle song as far as the beat, but the content makes it a little strange)

Death Scene: Minnie the moocher - Cab Calloway (Um, okay. Maybe Bertie Wooster gets me in the end.)

Funeral Song: Amazing Life - Jem (The weird part is that I probably would have picked it if I'd had a choice. It's one of a couple that I like.)

End Credits: You spin me right round - Orgy (This wouldn't have been something I would have picked, but it works for me.)

It's probably even too cold to stalk. Now THAT'S cold!

I was wondering, till about halfway down, how much Marilyn Manson (spelling) you had.

You have an interesting collection of music. I will have to listen to some of it through Napster. I like your questions too. Different than the other ones I have seen around.

God, can you believe I just left a NORMAL comment???

Fab - It's never too cold to stalk you, sweet cheeks.

Blue - Count me in!

Av - Are you sure it's the cold? Or is it because of me?

Absurdist - Honest, I don't have any more Manson in iTunes than anything else. As you can probably see from the rest of the answers I have kind of an eclectic taste in music. Are you feeling okay, that was a little too normal. It's freaking me out.
