Day 28 - A song that makes you feel guilty
The Dixie Chicks, "Goodbye Earl." Ten years ago this month, my sister and I decided we needed to get out of the hospital where the rest of our family was gathered. I don't remember where we went, just that she was driving the black Mustang (or was it a Cavalier?) and chortling about this song. Until then, I'd only heard of it, not actually heard it. At the time, it felt good to get my mind off my grandfather. Now, all I can think when I hear it is that I somehow need to apologize to someone for being so inappropriate and flippant. Telling clouds you're sorry just isn't the same. And sometime soon, I need it to rain.
