Comings and goings
*Sing to 'Deck the Halls'*
Drive we now across the nation.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Moving is this year's vacation.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Plugging ears, both parents demand:
Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
"Are we there yet?" is henceforth banned!
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Although the trip is lots of fun,
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
We'll be glad when it is done.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
After weeks we do arrive,
Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
And wonder how we stayed alive.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Yeah, you know me, rewriting/spoofing songs is fun :) Ironically, I thought of rewriting this one because the line "'Tis the season to be moving, Fa la la la la la la la la." popped into my head, and I didn't even use that line!!!
Anyways, yep. That's the life of a military brat :) Our across-the-back-yard neighbors moved last week, and this week some are moving into the house next door (not the one that shares our driveway, the other next door.)
It has also "hit me." In less than a month and a half, I will be living on my own (well, I'll have a roommate, but no family.) Eep! This is longest I've ever lived in one house. I've been here for coming on three whole years! Seriously, that's the longest I've ever been in one house! And it's the longest by, I believe, nine months!!! So, while moving on is daunting, I'm itching for it! I mean, come on, I've been in the same bedroom for far too long! It's really weird! (And this isn't the first time I've "felt the need to move." I've completely rearranged my bedroom at least 3 times since we moved here... I would do it again, but it seems kinda pointless... I am, however, packing stuff up for MHC!)
