If It Keeps on Rainin'...

Last night I settled in for bed. Jordon had a late meeting so I planned accordingly. Made some tea, made the bed, made things cozy. Relaxed, mellow, tired, I crawled into bed. I quickly slipped into that half-asleep state that I usually love so much. This time, though, every time I breached the realm between asleep and awake, I was taunted with a song that sang so loud in my ears I checked the radio twice to see if it had accidentally turned on.

But no. Metaphorically, literally, spiritually, symbolically, situationally, this song embodies my last few months. Okay maybe not literally, literally. But rain literally. It's funny, too. The last time I even remember hearing this song was over six years ago. I remember because I thought to myself I haven't heard this song in a looong time. And it was raining. Go figure.

Over and over, word for word, note for note. Loud. In my ears. In my brain. In my soul. Suffice it to say, I didn't sleep well last night.
