It's funny what you remember sometimes and why you do.

It's funny sometimes the things you remember. I have a ringtone on my cell that sounds like something you would hear on a carousel. When I was a little girl I remember I always loved the carousel. I had one particularly vivid memory of one amusement park we went to where the carousel had all different kinds of animals on it. Lions, tigers an elephant with a raised trunk. It was pretty awesome to me then. I remember I had a really hard time choosing which one to get on. I always had to have one that went up and down though. What was the point in riding it if you had a horse that stood still? This was such a vivid memory I remember how I put my hand into the lions mouth (it looked like it was roaring) just to see if it would fit. I remember looking up as the music played at the beautiful paintings on the ceiling of the carousel and it really felt magical somehow.

I know it sounds somewhat silly or maybe even very silly to some but I just wanted to type out that special memory. It's just funny sometimes the things we remember and why.
