Train Wreck by Glen Phillips This song title summed up how I felt after Halloween weekend. A train wreck. Partied a little too hard on that weekend and it hurt me for days.

They were so good and amazing … Continue reading Songs of My Life – November 2011
Hold My Breath by Ross Copperman I had music playing in the background of work but the lyrics caught my ear. “I don’t want to hold my breath. Toss my pennies in a wishing well. Believe in fortunes I can’t tell, cuz this is my life. I won’t let them get inside my mind. I don’t want to fall one step behind. Loose my place … Continue reading Songs of My Life – May 2011
