Memory Lane

Friends! I had the most sad experience today. I shall share it. There I was at work, minding my own B, tucked away in my office, listening to some ol' tunes on the Ipod as I worked and worked, when all of a sudden memory lane took my breath away.

Please view this v. v. v. sad music video. If you are having a bad day though, just stop reading.



Shuffle made this song play and I couldn't help but shed a little tear thinking of how well I thought the lyrics described when I first heard it. Once upon a time my dearest Kass and I were roommates in Paris for four months- that is where and when we first heard this song. We used to lie down on her bed, and listen to this, the most depressing of single girl songs, over and over and over again. What were we trying to do to ourselves? I have no clue.

Anyways, I listened to the song a few more times this afternoon because I am a repeat offender and I truly felt like I was back there, lying on that bed, with my BFF, being depressed together (while in Paris) about being a single girls. I was there again, slogging through the pain and agony of not getting enough love in my life. Such melodrama, I know, but it was so real.

(I just have to mention that Paris was amazing, and I had SUCH a good time, learned so much, it's just that single girlness doesn't leave you alone no matter if you are on top of the Eiffel Tower or at the bottom of your living room stairs.)

Then I started thinking of the time I admitted to Betina, in tears, that I was going to be married at 50 to some old Apostle whose wife had died. She still laughs and laughs when we talk about that, and how I should have let her tell the story at my wedding.

Anyways, to all you single ladies, I love you.
