off the top of my head —
1. alone again (naturally) by gilbert o’sullivan. this one is obvious it’s super depressing
2. izzat love? by todd rundgren. i associate this song with my mom because todd is her favorite and i learned to love him through her, so it just makes me want to hug my mom
3. our house (demo) by graham nash and joni mitchell. sobbed listening to this on repeat when i was really lonely after i moved out into my first apartment

in absence of romantic heartbreak, I am begging weeping and longing for friendships, family, getting older, random observations in nature now
i mostly played ds games as a kid but for some reason this pc game that i used to play at my parents’ enormous iMac G3 comes to mind. it’s a point and click adventure game where you’re a little anthropomorphic detective fish with a sidekick named luther (nothing funnier to a seven-year-old than a fish named luther). i think the one i played was freddi fish and the case of the haunted schoolhouse, which was juuuust creepy enough to interest me while still being age appropriate
my grandma took the photos for this book and they’re so nostalgic for me, lots of stuffed animals i used to play with when i visited her house :’) also just such a sweet book! the author writes earnestly at length on subjects like Feeding Your Stuffed Animal, Handling and Grooming, Training Your Stuffed Animal, Health and First Aid, etc.
this thing makes my skin sooo soft, plus as a bonus it stretches my body wash to last longer cuz i can use less and lather up more! and i can scrub that hard to reach spot in the middle of my back with ease
