PROGRESS.....MAYBE...

So, droplet dear, I had a moment today, and I didn't get to share with you. But perhaps the scenario will bring hope to your heart. Let me share.

Picked up your brother from school and naturally he played his charming cards just right and we ended up going through the drive-through at Chicken Express. Not really a bad thing, since I needed ice to help me succeed in my newly healthy lifestyle of drinking lots of ice water.

ANYWAY, while waiting to exit Chicken Express, FLY came on the radio. You know the song, don't you? I know you do!!!

All around the world statues crumble for me
who knows how long I've loved you
everywhere I go people stop and they see
twenty-five years old my mother God rest her soul
I just wanna fly
put your arms around me, baby [x2]
I just wanna fly
put your arms around me, baby [x2]
dance a little stranger, show me where you've been
love can make you hostage wanna do it again
there's no time to think about the starting or the end
we'll find out I'm told, my mother she told me so
I just wanna fly
put your arms around me, baby [x2]
I just wanna fly
put your arms around me, baby [x2]
I just want to fly- [x2]
[Bridge]
all around the world, statues crumble for me
who knows how long I've loved you
everyone I know has been so good to me
twenty-five years old, my mother God rest her soul
I just wanna fly
Put your arms around me, baby [x2]
I just wanna fly
Put your arms around me, baby [x2]
I just want to fly- [x2]

SO, what do you think I did???

YES....you are the winner! You guessed it! I proceeded to dance....and sing....and do hand jive motions. And I was JAMMIN'. I mean like awesome. I cannot tell a lie....I mumbled some of the words....but I mumbled them in such a way that it SEEMED like I knew what I was doing. So down FM 700 we drove. Me singing, hand-motioning, dancing in my seat.....and Garrett.....SMILING. Well, at least it was a smirk. But what it WASN'T.....it WASN'T a grimace or an attempt to seriously convince me to shut up. As we turned onto Baylor, it was beginning to hit me that it is possible he might come to tolerate my craziness after all. With you gone, dear heart, it is much more difficult. Since there were two of us in the past, he didn't really have much choice but to ignore us. But today....today my boy accepted me and ALMOST looked like he was having some fun with it!

My advice to you.....and I know you take it all the time.....DANCE LIKE NO ONE IS WATCHING....(but if they are watching ask them to join in!)
