baby, be a simple kind of man....
so it's thursday night and i havew a presentation due tomorrow that i've barely started and yet what am i doing? listening to favorite music and just thinkin life. by my favorite music i mean good ole classic rock...the stuff that kinda scares/freaks out roomie. so i try to get my fix we she's away. for some reason damn near everytime i listen to these mixes i fall into deep random thought. so just a few a minutes ago i was listening to lynard skynard's song "simple man" and i found a tear rolling down my cheek. this song has always meant a lot to as does this genre in general b/c it reminds me so much of my dad. this song in particular is the song that i actually recall him explaining the significance to my brother, which is special b/c they have NOTHING in common. nothing but this music and especially that song. so as i was listening to "simple man" and having my moment my mind wandered further from the past to the present and future. and i fully realized that those lyrics are exactly what i look for in a man. funny enough it's my father, it's my brother, and not so surprisingly it's very much mike too. and in some messed up smalltown/redneck way that means a lot to me. that just goes to show and explain why music means so much to me. it's one of the things that has played the biggest role in my life and who i am as a person. wow...i just realized how ridiculously cheesy this entire post is.:P but as cheesy as it may be i felt the need to write it all out. i'm not sure if that's b/c i'm trying to do everything i can to keep from doin my hw or if it's my actual desire to share is semi-sentimental story with all of the lj world. either way i feel better. :)
