In Between

I always hate the in between
Not having a someone makes me miss a someone....
It's a constant ache. 
It's like jumping from rock to rock...
That nasty feeling in between, when you're rising... suspended... and falling...
Now, I am rising. I've just left Rock One, and I have a ways to go before Rock Two.
It gives me too much to think about, and too much time to think.
Why did I jump in the first place?
How soon will I get to Rock Two?
Sooner than I thought?
Halfway there, now. 
Rock Two is in plain sight. This is that pivotal moment, locking onto your target.
I'm suspended there, in between where I've jumped from and where I'm about to land.
Too late to go back now, because soon, I'll be falling...
And then it happens.
It's your gut that sets in, and you know you're going down, getting closer and closer to Rock Two.
No looking back, it's almost over.
The ache is almost over.
What if I miss? What if my aim was off, when I jumped in the first place?
I'm still falling... can't stop now.


I hate the in between

Music... Duh. (September Playlist)

I'm starting over. Which makes sense, because I truly have started over. Or rather, changed for the better. 
So here's to October, time is new. What I'm saying is, I want to blog about music... why didn't I do that from the start?


Something interesting about me is that I'm very OCD about my music collection. My iTunes is the most organized personal item I own. Each month, I need new music. At the beginning of the month, I get new music. I make a playlist of this music, and I listen to it all month long. In this way, each month of my life has a soundtrack. I almost always have memories that relate to a song. I can tell you when I got the song, why, how I relate to it, the most important memory I have of that song... etc. It's really pretty cool. 


Last month's playlist was pretty awesome, if I do say so myself. So now, I present:

Some September Getdown (yes, "getdown" is a word.)
