I am a popsicle! Right now the temperature is -1 degrees. This morning when I went to class it was -17! Needless to say I am pretty miserable right now. All my old injuries hurt so bad when they get cold, as well as my hands which do this weird thing in the cold as well. It is so cold the inside of your nose gets frozen when you walk outside, and I feel like I have runners cough just from walking to class because the cold air burns my lungs. Today I went grocery shopping and there was a sale on milk...so naturally I bought two gallons because I drink milk like I am freaking dying or something. But then I had to walk around the house to my door in the freezing cold weather with TWO gallons of milk and I wanted to cry. Except my tears would probably freeze. Okay, so that is my rant about how cold it is...I often ask myself why I live here...right now I don't have an answer!
I love music. It is everything good and happy and right with the world and at the same time can say even the saddest words with such elegance and grace. It can express my thoughts and emotions in way that I know I never could. It is the life-blood of my soul. It makes me happy. And it goes beyond anything I can explain in plain words...which is kinda the point. For me, country music (among a few other things) makes me feel like I am home, no matter what is going on in my life. It is simply fantastic, in fact two of my favorite quotes come from the movie August Rush. They are... "You know what music is? God's little reminder that there's something else besides us in this universe, a harmonic connection between all living beings, every where, even the stars." AND "I believe in music the way some people believe in fairy tales..." And if those two don't say it all then I don't know what will. They are simply perfect in my opinion, and are completel...
