And the Songbirds are Singing Like They Know the Score

Well, today wasn't all that adventurous, especially compared to the weekend.
The day recapped:
Woke up.
Found my key, which has been MIA for a week. Turns out it was in the pocket of a pair of shorts I forgot I wore. I was pretty excited. I even made a really long key chain/lanyard for it so this won't happen again.
Showered. While listening to lovely 80's music. Well, maybe "lovely" isn't the right word. "Awesome" might be a better choice of word.
Checked the bank account. No more money than last time I checked.
Rode bike to see if I could apply at Pizza Hut, which had a sign out saying they're hiring. Turns out they have an  online application. I don't like those. I'd rather get out of the apartment. And they're so impersonal.
Went to the grocery store and bought two potatoes, strawberries, and an orange. Pasta gets a little dull.
Came home.
Went to work. It was very boring in the dish room.
Went to a couple stores with my friend/previous roomie in search of an outfit for her to wear to her cousin's wedding. Success.
Blogging.
Rather dull, eh?
But, in between all the exciting and fun bits of the day, I've been thinking about how music is such an influence in life. No matter how you feel, there's a song out there that fits your mood perfectly.
From this weekend: "Alone" by Heart. "Silver Springs" Fleetwood Mac. "The Flame" Cheap Trick. "Watching You Watch Him" Eric Hutchinson. "Ho Hey" The Lumineers.
From today: Journey. Foreigner. The Cars. Yes. Tears for Fears. Various other 80's music of awesomeness.
Anyways... Music is super important to me. It's probably like that for a lot of you out there. It can make your day or night so much better. It has this crazy ability to call up memories, welcome or not. Like whenever I hear the song "Hotel California", I always think of the ride to the airport when I was leaving for Germany. Or other songs make me think of people. Any Andy Grammer songs make me think of my old roommate Ary. And this is just a small sample. I love music and all the crazy things it does to your head and heart.  I think that's it for today. This whole post was a lot more eloquent in my head... anyways... The end.
