Good morning kiddies........... This is probably the first Saturday I haven't slept past 10 am. I've just been in such a slump since moving and starting a new job. It's usually a slow and solemn wave that flows over me for weeks when I go through some life changing event. And when you don't have "girl hang-time" because your friends live out of town, you don't really have anyway of getting your mind off of things. There's nothing like some retail therapy with a funny girl-friend.
I will say though, that I have had a great morning so far........I think mostly do to waking up in time to listen to 100.5's Vintage Vault from start to finish (10am - 12pm). I've heard The Cult, The Pixies, The Smashing Pumpkins covering a Depeche Mode song, Prodigy, The Black Crowes, Better Than Ezra, Cornershop, The Toadies, The Rentals, Weezer, Garbage, The Ramones............ And with the silly little girliness that is still inside of me, when I hear some guy call in and request something really cool over the radio I think, "Where can I find a guy like that?" Yeah, I'm a dork. I'm in love with music and get excited when I meet people who like the music like I've been hearing this morning.
My only fall back when listening to the Vintage Vault is that a lot of the music I'm hearing is eternally wrapped around a love from years past or who I was back then. Gosh, I remember that sometimes I would look at one of my best friends from Mobile and think, "Why is it that she still talks about this ex years after they were together?".....it wasn't until just in the past year she got over him. She didn't realize this until they crossed paths, he confessed his undying love for her, and she had the epiphany that after years of him still being in her heart and mind that she was finally over him. So I wonder if one day I'll finally be able to watch a movie or listen to music and not think of "him". I guess it's hard when that someone was your first for a lot of things. Just like my friend from Mobile, these guys were our first loves, first serious relationship, and first in general. Alas, another day...another drama.
There's a large Goodwill down the street from my workplace. So I think I'm going to drop off some things I need to get rid of and maybe do a little Goodwill shopping. Should be a good time...... Then either tonight or tomorrow I'm going to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! Alright, time for some "getting perty" time and then I'm out for a day on the town............out.
