country 5 September 2009
Saw a quote slagging off those who like country music today on a website – basically someone saying they didn’t denigrate people who liked country music while explaining to those people that denigrate means to put down – funny. Then the champions of country kicked in and you’d have to agree with them that a good country song (they’re usually about love and/or loss) is a great thing. I began to remember lines like ‘take your tongue out of my mouth, darlin’, I’m kissing you goodbye’ and one champion brought up one that I think went ‘walk backwards out the door so you’ll look like you’re coming in’ – unbeatably good.
Ireland won an important football match tonight (World Cup qualifier) = phew! We look VERY ordinary though, I’d have to say.
Rotten old sore throat and slight upper chest infection going on…tedious…
Bed early = getting elderly – tedious also…
Got new pair of jeans, a size smaller than usual = not so tedious = hra!
Swings and roundabouts, my friends = fun in life’s playground, so…
