When There Is Nothing To Say.

"It sure is."

I look at her in disbelief. She can't be serious. But with a big smile on her face, I'm almost certain that Teresa isn't lying to me.
103.7 Lite Fm is ALREADY PLAYING CHRISTMAS MUSIC!

There is no way to describe the feeling this radio station gives me every year about this time. I get even more mellow and giggly when the holidays are around the corner. As it the nights grow frosty, I fall into bed and doze off to the sounds of Nat King Cole and Dean Martin with foggy glasses and a hot cup of tea. It's my absolute favorite way to fall asleep.

In the next couple of days, my family will be here for Thanksgiving. It'll be interesting to see how much my work schedule will allow me to spend time with everyone. There will be a lot of shopping. Laughing. Eating. Everything that vacations are to us. My cousins and I will go around town. Teresa will come over and we'll have that "jam-out" we've been talking about for so long. It's been forever since we both have strummed our guitars and sang together. The days will be warm and loud and full of whatever comes our way. Everything will be perfect.

And before the day is over, we'll also remember the car hunting done today. How my dream of having a pickup truck is becoming a reality. I'm thrilled to say I'm about to be the lucky driver of whatever we can find. We have one in mind, but I asked for one more day of looking before we decide on one. It's weird to make adult decisions like this. To go to car dealerships and test drive things and actually think about getting a car that I want! How weird.
But how weird that I'll have a car payment from now till the end of my junior year in college, huh?
Greatness.

With silver bells in my ears and a stupid grin on my face I'm bobbing to the beat of whatever song is on the radio. By the end of the season I'll have every word to most of these songs
memorized again. And I'll probably have longer posts to write. More meaningful things to say.

I'll probably have a better post tomorrow.
This is quite disappointing...haha.
