Moonlight Lady

Gina and I celebrated a year-and-a-half of being together tonight, and it was a lot of fun. Being in school again, particularly with a restarted job search and potentially huge projects on the horizon, it's easy to lose sight of the things that can really put your life in perspective. I basically just needed another quiet night like this one. We enjoyed a delicious dinner at Outback, then goofed around Christiansburg a bit.

When I took her home and we were saying goodnight, my CD changer put on James Taylor's "You've Got A Friend," just like a charm. The funny thing is, I put that CD in about a week ago, as the sixth CD in the six slots I get to fill. Isn't it funny how, purely by coincidence, the perfect song can appear at the perfect time? Maybe it's that James Taylor is good for many occasions, or maybe it's the Man Upstairs pulling a few strings, but either way, it makes life that much cooler. All I could do was think "thanks, James" as I drove off.
