Narrowing it Down

I just got back from Chicago yesterday. It was a great trip, I must say, but we all know how well I post about vacations. [For those of us who are new to this little place, I'll fill you in: When it comes to posting about long-term events, I pretty much suck. Never gets done.]

So I'll just say it was a great trip. Lots of fun. I enjoyed myself. :]

As for right now, I'm editing this blog. Changing the colors and such. I'm also changing the quote on top, because I listened to a ton of music yesterday [car ride=iPod] and I found quite a few options.

...changing quote...

All right. Because I'm sentimental and sappy, I feel the need to share with you the two runner-ups. The ones that got away. These are the quotes I almost used and decided against, for various reasons:

"Every so often we long to steal
To the land of what might have been
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel
When reality sets back in...
Don't wish, don't start
Wishing only wounds the heart..."
--I'm Not That Girl [from the musical Wicked...lol]

"She would never say where she came from
And yesterday don't matter if it's gone
And while the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night, no one knows
She comes and goes...
Don't question why she needs to be so free
She'll tell you it's the only way to be
And she just can't be chained..."
--Ruby Tuesday, Rolling Stones [but I like the version by the Corrs]

Like I said, I had my reasons for not using them, but I felt that they needed their recognition. If I explained it to you... Well, I don't think I can.

To music, to words, and to the strange power they possess when combined.
