Track 17: Zanzibar - Billy Joel
I'm in love, to say the least. I actually wrote an email to a friend about my new phone and told him that if I never got a boyfriend, I'd be completely content with my phone. And that's when I started thinking how screwed up my perspective really is.
I wasn't really serious about being in love with my phone, but the fact that I can say it with such ease and people just as easily accept it is a problem. I was talking to a friend the other night and I said something along the lines of "I'd marry him based solely on his voice". He didn't laugh, but instead responded with "No, you wouldn't". And then I realized how easily I can throw around such important ideas like love and marriage for something as stupid as a singer or an inanimate object.
In other news, it's mid-term break. I slept in this morning until 10:30. I woke up at 6:30 originally, because I forgot to turn off my alarm, and then I realized how wonderful it was that I didn't have anywhere to be or anything to do (aside from mountains of school work) until later today. The only problem with being off school is that I eat all the time and laze around and watch movies. I also don't get to see all the people I normally do. I don't deal well with break in routine.
I bought the new Billy Joel CD, 12 Gardens Live, and I love it. It has all his greatest stuff on it (minus Leningrad), plus some new jazzy tunes that I've never heard before, such as Zanzibar. It's a huge fear of mine that I'll never get to see Billy Joel in concert before he retires, so I've decided to start saving up to see him in concert before he throws in the towel, so to speak.
I've got the old man's car,
I've got a jazz guitar
I've got a tab at Zanzibar
Tonight that's where I'll be
I "prepped" by listening to several CDs but that crowd knew ALL the words and sang along.
Naturally he ended with Piano Man.
Check out my blog.
I'm not sure what to comment here, because I'm sadly not as familiar with Billy Joel as I'd like to be, even though I'm sure I'd love him(you'll have to hook me up). But I wanted to comment, seeings hows it pretty much makes my life when you update.
ummm Girls' boy sleepover soon?
Thank you.
Meagan.
