My new found love:   Jone's Soda Company

flavors you should try in order of best tasting first --> fufu berry, blue rasberry lemonade, twisted lime, strawberry lime, cream soda

It's like Kool-Aid with carbonation.  Yum!!

So here I am again.  Listening to the same song again and again, but this time it seems that you can hear it too??  I don't know if you can, but I've selected an excerpt from one of my favoritest (that might not be a word, but I’m making it one) classical theme songs of all time.  I've talked about this song in the past.  Here is what I wrote:

God I love this song, it’s so comforting. 

It just makes you want to think of home, and things that you can't have but want really bad.  The sound of the song just makes you explore your mind in search a cherished memory.  The indulgence of the memory is heartfelt and the need for more takes over, kind of like the feeling you get when you miss someone really badly (maybe that is the feeling).  Everything dies into a vague sound of confusion... but amidst the confusion and darkness, a little light shines and slowly but surely, hope is regained and there is finally an awakening, an awakening that tells us that everything will turn out okay in the end.  Whether or not someone got what they wanted, there is a sense of understanding, a sense of maturity.  A sense of enlightening.

You won’t get the full effect of the song because there is only a piece of the song here.  But it sounds nice, wouldn’t you agree???

I also decided that the theory of Occam's Razor is a good way to live life (in most cases).  It says not to make things more complicated than they should be.  Simplicity is the goal.

So today it was cold.  I went outside to run to Exxon to buy some drinks because I was thirsty and I was craving soda.  Anyway, I sat in my car.  And I turned on my heater.  The heater was still cold, gradually turning warmer, because I hadn't let my car warm up.  I had a quick flashback.  It reminded me of the days my dad would take to school every cold morning.  We would wait in the car until it warmed up, and if he turned on the heater, it would first blow out cold and slowly become warmer.  I was never really a morning person when it came to interacting with others.  So every morning, on the way to school, I would sit there and complain at the way my dad drove the car.  He really did suck at driving though.  And he still does.  But oh well, that's my dad!  Those were the days.  Now I'm just waiting until I can see my parents again.  I love them to death.
