Earlier this fall, I totally fell head over heels in love with this song. I've been a Sugarland fan for some time, passed up the chance to see them live now twice (bugger!), and think Jennifer, the lead singer, is awesome and strong and totally a role model. So anyway, love this song. Earlier on, when it was on the radio every six minutes, it made me smile because as displeased as I was with my life at the time, I felt that if I served my time, I'd eventually be able to live up to the "already gone" part. And the lyrics about boxes and dishes and socks hit home hard, in a soft, cozy place, because I've found an ex's pair of socks and an old wifebeater in my laundry before (years ago, just for the record) and...ouch.
Long, rambl-y story short, in the drama that has ensued, I forgot about this song. I was driving up to beat the blizzard and spend a few days with my folks when this song came on the radio somewhere around the Watertown curves. And it has been stuck in my head ever since.
I can't wait for January 1. So many hopeful, optimistic, new, shiny, over-anticipated beginnings.
