I know a lot of people. A lot. Not that I'm uber popular or shallow, but I can seriously tell you how I know all 400+ people on my facebook page personally. This made today's challenge especially hard. I thought of a song and then the person(s) I think of because of that song. I thought of a person and then the songs that I associated with them.
Last night's post got me into the high school mode. And who better to remember than my friend Lisa. She and I were peas in a pod in high school. We each had other friends but it seemed we always found each other on the weekends, random Tuesday evenings, over the summer, between jobs, etc. We got into trouble together, doing practically nothing, and were model students together. We partied, drove drunk friends around, took offices in the French Club. Mostly though, we drove around. And around. And around. We both had access to a car, not *our own* car, but a car. And we drove. We figured out the school bus to trailer ratio in Peru, we had picnics on abandoned house's lawns, and we drove. For hours. And this song, on a mixed tape of mine, was played a LOT. We'd often drive around until this song was over. Like around the block. 5 minutes late for curfew was standard. And it was Lynyrd Skynyrd's fault. Hope you don't have anything to do for the next 10 minutes. Ha!
