attribute songs to particular people or events? this has been ongoing in my life since i began listening to music. for instance, i will never, ever, think of anything other than shelby when i hear 'little miss can't be wrong'. every single time. or my friend KC whenever i hear any song by U2, especially 'one'. for the most part, it kicks ass to be taken back to a specific sequence of events that you can replay in your head, moment by moment, or have the essence of someone surround and enrapture you.
and then there are times when it's not so great.
i have about 50 songs on my itunes which are forever linked with her. god, i miss her. i miss pretty much everything about her. i miss being 10 feet from her. i miss getting random text messages from her. i miss having coffee with her. i miss our endless conversations-- you know, those conversations that start at 10 pm and end at 4:30 am. i miss sitting in a room with her in total silence and actually being comfortable in the quiet. i miss watching her mingle and interact in a crowded room, all the while reading her eyes and knowing exactly what she was thinking. i miss her understanding me. i miss being comfortable with her. i miss feeling that it was alright to be quirky, neurotic, particular, and secluded.
i just miss her.
