horrible
Today was what I would call an interesting day that got off to a HORRIBLE start... Last night, I went out with Nicole for Chinese to play catch up which was cool and I re-organized my dorm room (again). No mention of why it was horrible, just that everything is better now. :) ~~sigh~~ I love my sweetie. Now I have my airfare to go home which I am both happy and sad about. I get to see my sissy and my Amber, but I have to go for 2 1/2 weeks without seeing my baby... So sad. :'( Tomorrow will be good! PARTY in Boston. Yay. Goodnight moon. I am going down cellar to watch a movie with Adam, Kevin, and Jeff. Song du jour:NewsongThe Christmas ShoesIt was almost Christmas time, there I stood in another lineTryin' to buy that last gift or two, not really in the Christmas moodStanding right in front of me was a little boy waiting anxiouslyPacing 'round like little boys doAnd in his hands he held a pair of shoes His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty from head to toeAnd when it came his time to payI couldn't believe what I heard him say Chorus:Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, pleaseIt's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her sizeCould you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much timeYou see she's been sick for quite a whileAnd I know these shoes would make her smileAnd I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight He counted pennies for what seemed like yearsThen the cashier said, "Son, there's not enough here"He searched his pockets franticallyThen he turned and he looked at meHe said Mama made Christmas good at our houseThough most years she just did withoutTell me Sir, what am I going to do,Somehow I've got to buy her these Christmas shoes So I laid the money down, I just had to help him out I'll never forget the look on his face when he saidMama's gonna look so great Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, pleaseIt's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her sizeCould you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much timeYou see she's been sick for quite a whileAnd I know these shoes would make her smileAnd I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight Bridge:I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's loveAs he thanked me and ran outI knew that God had sent that little boyTo remind me just what Christmas is all about Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, pleaseIt's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her sizeCould you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much timeYou see she's been sick for quite a whileAnd I know these shoes would make her smileAnd I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
