Isn't It Funny How a Melody Brings Back a Memory?
I'm having a lot of fun with my new computer (whom I have named Oscar, just because). Yesterday, I installed iTunes and put our entire library on it. I burned myself a cd of a bunch of songs from the various mix cds Steve made me when we started dating. I hadn't really listened to "secular" music in almost 10 years, so I was a bit behind on music. (Don't ask.)
Anyway, while driving home from the store with Ashley and Alex and listening to my "new" cd, we were discussing how certain songs can bring you back to a particular time and place in your life.
"These songs remind of when I was dating your dad. It's like I can close my eyes and just be there. And like The Fray's album reminds me of last October when Mom-Mom died because it was the cd I listened to the most." I said.
Alex (13) pipes up like he totally gets what I'm trying to say, "Yeah, and like, I don't know why, but the word supper always makes me think of spaghetti."
Alrighty then. I was a good mom and didn't laugh til I told Steve later. Although, perhaps a good mom wouldn't blog about it.

Funny stuff!!
Yep, a boy thinking about food. :)
I was just listening to a song not five minutes ago that I remember blasting in the church shortly before my wedding - it was only me & the bridesmaids there. It was En Vogue's My Lovin (You're Never Gonna Get It) - a very strange song to remind you of your wedding day. And for anyone who reads this who doesn't already know: Yes, we're still married! :-)
Either that or he'll be a comic!
