Lost

I knew I would miss them, but I didn't think I'd feel so lost without them :(

Dropped them off at the airport, choked back the tears because I knew if I started bawling then SHE would start bawling, and I didn't want that. Tried to turn the sobs in to giggles, but as soon as I was pulling away the tears just wouldn't stop.

The thing I hate the most about crying is the complete loss of control.

So I finally stop crying enough to get back on the highway, and of course the radio is conspiring against me. In order, and I shit you not on this, these are the EXACT SONGS in the EXACT ORDER I stumbled across them while trying to get away from songs that made me cry:

Pearl Jam with "Where oh where can my baby be"

Cutting Crew singing "Don't forget me when I'm gone"

REO Speedwagon's "I'm gonna keep on lovin' you"

The Mama's & The Pappas singing "Each night before you go to bed, my bay-beeeee..."

It was then that I slammed Green Day in to the CD player and listened to American Idiot all the way home. Screw you, conspiratorial radio stations! You'll never taint my Green Day!

Sorry, sorry... "(I just) Died In Your Arms Tonight" was also played somewhere in that medley of hits, the two must have melded together in my mind. My bad!
