...Things Are Goin' Your Way
On my way to the store last night, Wilson Phillips' 'Hold On' came on and I couldnt help but remember a HILARIOUS time in 1993 (?) when Toby and I drove to Nashville with Annie and Shane Phillips to see the Pink Floyd Concert at Vanderbilt. Heading out of Memphis, this song came on the radio and the funny thing was, nobody turned it. The funnier thing was, everyone knew the words (every word, even the little nuances like 'ooo things are goin' your way'). And the funniest thing was, we all proceeded to sing the entire song as LOUD as we could in its completion. I will never forget that. Shane and Toby belting Wilson Phillips was so entertaining that me and Annie had difficulty doing our 'part' but sing we did. It was almost sad when the song was over.
That was also the trip where Toby's blue Celica broke down at the Waverly exit and we had no choice but to patiently wait on the side of the Interstate until Jonathan (my then boyfriend) drove his little Honda to pick us up. We hung around in the car for a while. Then we got bored and proceeded to break out Annie's camera and take pictures of the oddest things. One was of Me, Annie, and Shane doing the three monkey 'hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil' on the back of the car. One showed Shane sitting on the ground in the median of the Interstate tossing grass in the air. And one was of us lying in the middle of the interstate w/ our feet in the air. Whoever has those pictures needs to come forward!!
Love you guys! kiss kiss.

MAMORIES.....Oh I maean MEMORIES!!!! Those were the times. I would give a million bucks to go back to those days. We had so much fun! I remember one minute we were laughing our butts off then the next minute we saw black smoke coming from the back of the car. Toby was confused as to what was goin on as were the rest of us...can you say OIL CHANGE? that woulda been a good idea but if he's kept up the oil changes we would have never been able to take all those great pictures and even experience laying in the middle of the interstate. Who does that? Well we did I bet nobody else ever has!! Love you too!
What great memories! :) and a great rendition of that song... ;)
