Live from Dallas/Ft. Worth, Part 2
Another three hour layover, another period of gratefulness to Vista for supplying me with free Internet to pass the time, but this time no giddy, impatient excitement to get where I'm going. Joie is reluctantly returning to the real world again.
Looking like quite the technology buff, I've got my iPod next to me and I'm listening to a little Ben Folds (when am I not?). These lyrics seem especially poignant to me given the mood I'm in, so I feel like sharing.
Ben Folds - "Still"
I must give the impression that I have the answers for everything
You were so disappointed to see me unravel so easily
It's only change; only everything I know
Even the things that seem still are still changing
La da, la da, la da da da da da...
Mother misses her baby, but I only wanted to be me
She changed address and haircuts and boyfriends and lightbulbs, it's easy
But it's only change; only everything I know
Even the things that seem still are still changing
La da, la da, la da da da da da...
I stay focused on details, it keeps me from feeling the big things
But watch the microscope long enough; things that seem still are still changing
La da, la da, la da da da da da...

I hope you had a good break Joie -- I'm sure its a drag to be heading back. And in the "oh oh oh!" vein -- a couple of friends and I got tickets to see Ben Folds in concert here in San Diego in June!
