I listened to Trampled by Turtles as I edited papers tonight. Wow. I love them so much. I fell in love with about 4 songs but here is one. The lyrics are equivalent of my biggest fear.
She followed the man she loved
All the way to New Orleans
She come back broken-hearted and mean
She tried to escape the pain
But sometimes it's all that's real
It's no excuse for living pain free, that's the deal
It's a bitch, ain't it babe
To live while you're young
I'm crushed that the world turned over so soon
A pile of old memories
Just lying all aroud
Seems like everywhere I look I've fallen to the ground
And I can't help it if it's over babe
You can't help it, though you tried
Your poor little soul is wearing pretty thin
It's a bitch, ain't it babe
To live while you're young
I'm crushed that the world turned over so soon
I'm posting something daily for one whole year. This could be anything. A photo, something funny I heard, a short lyric, or a random thought. This is just an easy way for me to capture a year of my life.

Day 276-January 30th: a long run :)
Today I went for what I hoped would be a 4 mile run. It turned into a 4.6 mile run. Love it! I did a lot of thinking while I was running and I thought I would add the list of things I've been given. (see post from a few weeks ago.)
1. Legs to run. How lucky am I that I can work out and enjoy it?
2. Hot sexy legs. Don't pretend you aren't jealous. They are full of scars and I used to hate that but now I love it! Especially the one from Superbowl weekend last year. What a great memory.
3. While we are on the topic of good looks I'd like to say that I have been given one hell of a set of boobs. Thanks for the great genes rents :)
4. Serious time management skills. (Or I just don't have a social life. Which works for me too....at least for now.)

Day 275-January 29th: epiphany
Last night at the bar I had some great epiphanies.
1. If I had to choose any song to listen to every time I walked into a door for the rest of my life it would be the "go pack go!" anthem. (we had like an hour long conversation before we realized this was the best option.)
2. If I ever get married I will not have flowers in my bouquet, but will fill it with beer bottles and little bottles of Jameson.
3. I gave up way to easily last October and it will be one of my major life regrets. I didn't give it my all because I was too exhausted from everything else. That's not who I am, and I'm disappointed in myself.
4. I'd be settling for something comfortable rather than searching for something extraordinary, and that's not me either.
I'm sorry if some of those don't make sense, but that's all I'm going to give you. If you can't figure it out then it's none of your business.

Day 274-January 28th: satisfied?
Every time someone asks me if I have a significant other I have to laugh. I have no time for such a thing. Part of me misses it, and yet the other part of me is satisfied with being single and focusing on myself right now. I'm torn....
I know one thing that satisfies me. Brownies with peanut butter on the top.
And Stormy Weather IPA.

Day 273-January 27th: The roller coaster
I'm sitting at a coffee shop working on this thesis and suddenly I almost break down crying. My life is such a roller coaster right now and all I want to do is cruise along for a while, not chugging up any hills or screaming down any. But it seems as though there is no such thing as a straight and level path in this world. There are a lot of curves, and there is no way to see around them to know where the path will go.

Day 272-January 26th: First Aid Training
Not only did I have boring inservice all day long today I also had a 4 hour first aid/cpr training class. The guy started out the class by saying the take away message would be "fast and hard." Enough said.

Day 271- January 25th: Paradise
I had a wonderful 50 minutes workout tonight. I didn't get much work done on my paper, but I'm starting to be less nervous about it when I have class and see that some students haven't even written their lessons yet. Anyway this song came on on my way home from the gym and got me thinking about life. This song describe how I feel about life and sleep right now.
When she was just a girlShe expected the worldBut it flew away from her reach soShe ran away in her sleepand dreamed ofPara-para-paradise, Para-para-paradise, Para-para-paradiseEvery time she closed her eyes
When she was just a girlShe expected the worldBut it flew away from her reachand the bullets catch in her teethLife goes on, it gets so heavyThe wheel breaks the butterflyEvery tear a waterfallIn the night the stormy night she'll close her eyesIn the night the stormy night away she'd fly
When she was just a girlShe expected the worldBut it flew away from her reachand the bullets catch in her teethLife goes on, it gets so heavyThe wheel breaks the butterflyEvery tear a waterfallIn the night the stormy night she'll close her eyesIn the night the stormy night away she'd fly
