I suppose I just created my own life soundtrack. That will probably change over the years. But for the first 20 or so this is what it is. Creating a life soundtrack is sort of a odd sensation. I am someone who is constantly soundtracking my life anyway. It goes with the territory of being nostalgic for my life as I'm living it. As any of you who are out there and are like me know- you can't plan your life's soundtrack. It's just one of those accidental miracles that occurs- you're having a moment, and a perfect song accompanies it, and suddenly your brain is seared with the understanding that this is a time and a place and a song you'll never forget. No matter how long its been, when that song comes on...? it's like being in a plutonium fueled Delorian- you've driven 88 miles an hour back to that memory.

I guess thats life.

hmm.

this weekend was amazing, and some of these songs made the list due to you, and our night together. Expect a copy sometime soon.

Here's to loving life and the soundtrack that comes along with it.
