Lyrics

I've found an awesome radio station that doesn't fade out on my 45 min. trek to work. It's a variety, but mostly 80's, which totally excites me.
I've listened to Tom Petty tell me I "don't have to live like a refugee."
I've listened to Prince (or formely known as) sing "Purple Rain." I totally love that song.
I've heard how "all the school kids are so sick of books, they like to punk in the metal band. They've got the groove. Oh way oh. They're walking like an Egyptian."
I've learned that "I'm not scared of too many things. I know what I want, if you know what I mean. Push me in the shallow water, before I get too deep."
It's been fun. It's been a real trip! It's brought back many memories. Like, dude. Fun times. It's really made the distance between work and home much more bearable.
(place mental picture of me cruising along, singing at the top of my lungs, bobbing my head to the rythym here)

I happened upon another song that I have never heard. Broken Road by Rascal Flatts. This is such a beautiful song. If I ever find my caramel chocolate, this will be my theme song.
Bless The Broken Road Lyrics
I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
I think about the years I spent just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
Now I'm just rolling home
Into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you.

I'm weeping...isn't that beautiful...and to "hear" it is just that much better. Okay, so I'm a sappy romantic. So what?

FYI: Andrew the fireman is definitely not my caramel chocolate. Nope. Nadda. Makes for an utterly boring story that I won't tell here. But in further news... after a month, Darin, the UPS man (NYE blind date)...called me. Wants to get together Saturday night. Hmm. I'm down with that.
