tonight tim and i went to see the st. louis fair and air show. better than ezra just happened to be playing there. have i ever told you guys that better than ezra is one of my favorite bands? they were the third cd i ever owned - right after the lion king soundtrack and aerosmith's get a grip. i guess i kind of associate them to being one of the reasons i love music so much. their first cd, deluxe, got me through some rough times during middle school/high school when my parents would fight. so tim, that is why "this time of year" makes me sad sometimes. don't get me wrong, that is one of my favorite songs ever. it just makes me wish fall would get here even quicker. sometimes i pretend fall is here when i notice a leave starting to change colors, but then i realize it's still 80 degrees out. ;/ i have lots of stories and memories i can attribute to bte. i used to hide money in that jewel case so my brother wouldn't take it. ;) for instance, when russell and i (or my dog) found $180 under the couch and split it. the show was so good. it was really refreshing to see a band not take themselves too seriously for once. it's 11:11, make a wish. what's yours? a guy spilt milk on me today at bread co. it looked like i'd kneeled in a puddle of water. as we were walking to the car after the fair, we took a short cut through the grass. there was a dip in the ground, turns out it was a mushy, muddy mess. my flip flop almost got lost in the battle and my jean leg (because i never, ever wear shorts) was soaked. made for a not so comfortable drive home. i guess you win some, you lose some, eh?
Well, there's a feeling in the air
Just like a Friday afternoon.
Yeah, you can go there if you want
Though it fades too soon.
So go on, let it be.
If there's a feeling coming over me,
Seems like it's always understood this time of year.
Well, I know there's a reason to change.
Well, I know there's a time for us.
You think about the good times
And you live with all the bad.
You can feel it in the air,
Feeling right this time of year.
Well, there's a football in the air,
Across a leaf blown field.
Yeah, and there's your first car on the road,
And the girl you'd steal.
So go on with yourself
If there's a feeling that there's something else.
Seems like it's always understood
This time of year.
Well, I know there's a reason to change.
Well, I know there's a time for us.
