Nickel Creek is my favorite band for a reason. The reason is that at any given moment, one of their songs (of which there are many) is the PERFECT SONG. I have an obsession with finding the PERFECT SONG. For the moment. You know what I mean. Tonight it was Sweet Afton.
Flow gently, sweet Afton, among thy green braes,
Flow gently, I'll sing thee a song in thy praise;
My Mary's asleep by thy murmuring stream,
Flow gently, sweet Afton, disturb not her dream.
Thou stock-dove whose echo resounds through the glen,
Oh, ye wild whistling blackbirds in yon thorny den,
Thou green-crested lapwing, thy screaming forbear,
I charge you disturb not my slumbering fair.
Oh, how lofty, sweet Afton, thy neighboring hills
Far mark'd with the courses of clear winding rills,
There daily I wander as noon rises high
My flocks and my Mary's sweet cot in my eye.
How pleasant thy banks and green valleys below,
Where wild in the woodlands the primroses blow;
There oft as mild Ev'ning sweeps over the lea
The sweet scented birk shades my Mary and me.
Though thy crystal stream, Afton, how lovely it glides,
And winds by the cot where my Mary resides,
How wanton thy waters her snowy feet lave,
As gathering sweet flow'rets she stems thy clear wave.
Flow gently, sweet Afton, among thy green braes,
Flow gently, sweet river, the theme of my lays,
My Mary's asleep by thy murmuring stream,
So, flow gently, sweet Afton, disturb not her dream
The lj-cut feature is working now. And oh my goodness it is neat. Since I am not tired (sigh), I will do yet another survey. I have done so many today it's not even funny.

You know what's weird? Taking surveys from CAMPERS and having to read their answers to questions about sex. It's really unnerving. I'm still not tired but I guess I'll try to get into bed and maybe sleep or something.
