One of my favorite songs. One of my favorite stories.
But, I'd never reverse the lyrics out of a lavender background like this. (No offense Tat Productions.)
I'd love it if someone would give me the time and the money to bring this story to life.
And if not that? Could someone just please give me a microphone? I've always wanted to belt it: 3:44 - 3:53.
Because then I'd never again be able to ask for a better nine seconds.
Bob Seger made songs perfect for singing loudly in your car.

Can You and Neddie work something out?

I agree with your thoughts on lavender.

I have a feeling Neddie would run screaming in the opposite direction of anything Bob Seger. lol I love those nine seconds though!
And yeah, lavender? And how 'bout that chunky type? Not good. lol

Is it just me? Or is it taking everyone forever to post a comment on Typepad these days? So slow!

I read this as "Is it taking everyone forever to post a post"... and was thinking, yes... :)

BG,
Ok, this is getting weird, first you post the song *SEAGULL* by Bad Company--always been a connection for me with Wrestling Kid, now this. *ROLL ME AWAY* has always conjured up memories of my father and my brother (your boyfriend!!) riding motorcycles, midwest, just gives me sweet thoughts of them. I was just telling Cooler that our connection comes from forces that are beyond us.....sounds crazy, but think of where we were born and tell me there isn't some truth.

thunder, one that won't make me nervous, wondering what to do?
Jennifer, I'm trying to figure it out. lol
Jenny, "and tell me there isn't some truth"
I'm here to tell you it's true! It's fun, crazy stuff. Now, I've got to listen to it again and again, thinking of you thinking of them.
I wish there were pictures of you and me lying in those little plastic beds. You know, the room where they put all the newborns in. Wonder if we were in the same one? Or had the same nurse who thought we were cool and she told us both the same stories or something. Think of that! Maybe she said to me, "You know, there was a little blondie in here six months ago that I think you would've really hit it off with."
lol Love that thought!

More fun, crazy stuff!

BG,
Love your idea about the nurse *hooking us up* in our little plastic beds!! Hey, I believe!! Another cog in the coincidental (?) wheel.....Bob Seger's b-day on the same day as yours. I don't even find it strange at this point, all meant to be.
XOXOXO,
Jenny
