*Gasp!*
I know. Sometimes I hate to admit that sometimes I come to the realization that I really do like country music. And, until last night, I had forgotten again (I go through phases.)
Last night I helped Twin and her soon-to-be-hubby, Log, build and finish some made-from-real-log home decorations. They were so awesome! Picture frames, candle holders, signs (Log, I think I'm going to have you make me one :) ), etc. Twin and I were in charge of binding the candle holders together with barbed wire- which, by the way, is really hard to bend. But, by the end of it, they looked quite amazing if I do say so myself.
Anyway, while we were doing all of this, The Country Couple (aka Log and Twin) put on their oldies country music station. And guess what? I danced, that's what.
Yes, dear friends. I remembered that country music is really fun! It brought back memories of road trips with Twin, country dancing with Jordan and Ty, my first apartment of roomies- CareBear, Kimerz, and Ashby- and for some reason, it made me think of making fresh apple cider when I was 6.
So now that I've reverted back to listening to country, I have to curb my mockery of it. *sigh* Giving up an easy target to tease is hard for me, but until I get sick of country music again, I suppose I'll just have to let it go.
Here are some favorites of mine:
~ Chris LeDoux
~ George Strait
~ Willie Nelson
~ Elvis Presley
~ Miranda Lambert
And some "country mixed with a little something else" favorites:
~ Janis Joplin
~ Brandi Carlile
Now that I've accepted country music back into my life, I think this summer will be extra awesome.
Let the good times start-a-rollin!
Happiness is...
~ Playing with Log and Joe
~ Being creative- I made a bow out of barbed wire!
~ Listening to some country music :)
~ Hoping for the best
~ Pink and brown scrubs
~ Realizing sleeping in isn't all its cracked up to be
~ Going on walks
~ Jumping in the pool with your clothes on
"Some folks don't realize that it's a well know fact
Cowboy's and hippies ain't never got along
Was it just coincidence or some weird act of fate
That brought these two together on the road"

*Gulp* Sometimes I like country music too. But that doesn't stop me from making fun of it!
Elvis is not country... but since my issues in february i have also started liking the crappy music. I, like your friend Julia however, have not stopped making fun of it. Songs with lyrics about checking people for ticks have thankfully preserved that for me :)
