Robin In The Snow

We've reached that time in the year, where I am feeling pain and I am almost certain it is death. A normal person would think that maybe you should go to the doctor and maybe figure out what exactly the pain is and why you are feeling it. But not me. I figure if I'm going to die I don't really want to know. :)

I don't really feel like I'm dying, but death is on my mind today. As I mentioned on Friday I have come to realize that I own a ridiculously large amount of sad music. So while hanging out with my good friend Ben on Saturday I tell him that I need some happy music. Ben tells me about an artist, Sonya Kitchell, particularly her song, Robin In The Snow. He says I have to download it immediately and listen. So I do, and I listen to it on my drive home. If I hadn't already been 20 minutes from his house I might have driven back to hit him. The song is about seeing a Robin born in the winter, much too early for a Robin to be out and because of the little Robin has been born to early it's dying. She says no one, but her knew about the Robin, and therefore she will miss it when it's gone, but who is going to miss her when she is gone. Did I mention that I've been a little needy and on the gloomy music kick? So why why why would you give me this dreadful song to listen to? I was so sad by the time the song ended and convinced I am going to die alone with no one to miss me. Thanks Ben!

Today begins, Operation Cheer where I am searching for happy music, happy movies, and good friends. I'm headed over to the Tarantino house for some Super Bowl watching, so that is a guaranteed good time.....
