A song can supposedly "take you back" in time...
Tonight it had suddenly and unexpectedly taken me back to 2001.
I didn't think it was that big of a deal. But the last three minutes have been the longest and most uncomfortable I've felt in a very long time.
My stomach is churning. Like when you drink a glass of cold milk in the summertime and then go outside to play.
You're fine for a minute or two and then you realize you probably made a very bad mistake.
Sometimes I'm amazed at the power songs can have on our lives.
Although I suppose there could be worse things in life... like actually /being/ back in 2001.
*sigh*
There are some moments I think I will spend the rest of my life anticipating. Not all of them are happy.
People think I stand so tall and brave. And yet, all it takes is one mistaken identity of a stranger on a street and I crumble to dust. I have mastered the "Happy" poker face in all possible emergency situations. I'm not brave. I'm just a fabulous actress. ;)
They say these things fade with time.
But they never say how much...
