WHERE MUSIC LISTENS TO YOU

Another rainy day.... who's up for a 2-mile walk in sandals?

Ugh. Not a great way to kick off a Friday. I had to bring my truck in for 4 new tires and an alignment this morning, and I was proud of myself for doing my homework and finding a Sullivan Tire that was offering a 3 for 1 deal on Goodyears and it was only about 2 miles away from my work... I called them up Wednesday and scheduled an appt. for today... they said that they had a shuttle that could take me to work, I thought, great! If I need it, I'll take it, but I figured that the last 3 weeks or so have been amazing weather here, and if I felt like it I could take a brisk stroll back to my place of employment. Well, apparently the "shuttle guy" is not an early riser and he wasn't going to be in until "about 8:30." So after receiving my bill for $571, I get this doozy. My part in the story is that I am wearing sandals today because after a certain date in the year, it is my footwear of choice. Bad move today dipshit. It's 43 degrees out and raining, about as miserable as possible. Anyway, one of the first songs that came on my iTunes this AM was "Strangulation" by one of my personal fav-O-rite bands, My Morning Jacket and I couldn't help but think it was an appropriate tune, if not just for the name of it... thought I'd share...I promise, happier songs are on the horizon!

  1. moovyphreak says Sorry to hear you day started out bad. It's currently in the low 60s here, partially sunny and I woke up to a day off work and I get to play with my new 40' LCD HDTV. I just figured I would perk up everyone else with a happy story.

  4. Anonymous says Man, that's one crappy morning. But it would make a pretty good scene in a film: an angry man walking through the rain in sandals whilst the intro to Strangulation pounds away in the background.

  6. msquared64 says oooouuuuuccccchhhhh..... much worse, I know what you're talking about... fortunately my sandals were pretty well broken in reef's. Speaking of reefs, can anyone explain to me why there are some of them with bottle openers... ON THE BOTTOM??!! Why, why would you want to open a bottle, that you put to your mouth with your shoe? The same shoe you have been stepping on used gum with?
