mum

Today is MOther's Day. Yes, I let my mom buy a new purse for herself. But anyway with the Physics AP tomorrow I am more than a little anxious. Gotta go bowling tonight so I hopes that that will get my mind off of newtons and Tesla (which is a rock band, you know.)

But as some of you might know and the rest of you will, I like country music. There's this new somg that's really awesome. It's a metaphor. Maybe. Or one of those word puns. Or some other rhetorical device.

Break Down Here
(James Brown/Patrick Matthews)

Mile marker 203, the gas guage leanin' on the edge of "E",
An' I'll be dang'd if the rain ain't pourin' down.
There's somethin' smokin' underneath the hood,
It's a-bangin' and a-clangin' an' it can't be good,
An' it's another fifty miles to the nearest town.
Everythin' I own's in the back in a hefty bag;
I'm outta cigarettes an' I'm down to my last drag.

I'd sure hate to break down here,
Nothin' up ahead or in the rear view mirror.
Out in the middle of no-where, no-where.
I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin'.
So, God help me, keep me movin' somehow.
Don't let me start wishin' I was with him now.
I made it this far without cryin' a single tear.
I'd sure hate to break down here.

Under fifty thousand miles ago,
Before the bad blood an' busted radio,
He said I was all he had ever needed.
But love is blind an' little did I know,
You were just another dead end road,
Made with pretty lies an' broken dreams.
Baby, leavin' you is easier than bein' gone.
I don't know what I'll do if one more thing goes wrong.

I'd sure hate to break down here,
Nothin' up ahead or in the rear view mirror.
Out in the middle of no-where, no-where.
I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin'.
So, God help me, keep me movin' somehow.
Don't let me start wishin' I was with him now.
I made it this far without cryin' a single tear.
An' I'd sure hate to break down here.
Oh, no.

I'd sure hate to break down here,
With nothin' up ahead or in the rear view mirror.
Out in the middle of no-where, no-where.
I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin'.
So, God help me, keep me movin' somehow.
Don't let me start wishin' I was with him now.
I made it this far without cryin' a single tear.
An' I'd sure hate to break down,
It's too late to turn around.
I'd sure hate to break down here.

Mile marker 215.



So there. Cuz it's about relationships AND driving. Isn't that cool? But that's all I got to say. Anybody who can explain why the aurora borealis is the way it is will win a free search courtesy of yahoo.

Bowling scores TBA.

What all is everyone doing once we escapr the treachery of finals? OR if anyone knows of any job openings I would be intersted. On some website they told me that a coffeeshop needs a cleaning person, so anything but that. The fewer germs the better.
