There are two albums on my Train playlist. Save Me, San Francisco, and California 37. I remember listening to this album in its entirety and then I would pick songs that I liked. I seem to be hearing this song a whole lot now as I am doing puzzles or playing the car game and I kinda dig it!

Highlights from the soundtrack of my life.
My Life is Sad.
My Mom always tells me that I like sad music and I just tell her that my life is sad. I did not know how sad it would be 23 years ago when I was diagnosed with MS. Which at this point, the is a mother b*tch!
I do wonder what this song is about but I like it. What can I say, I like sad mood sick because my life is sad!
Parachute
Because it is August now, I was listening to my Train Apple Music playlist, and I heard this song:
I have a very vivid memory of driving to work, and I was listening to this album for the first time, and this song came on just as I was making that very weird Isosceles triangle type turn off of Dix and onto Goldsmith to go to work.
This album came out in 2009 and I think I was still in our 2nd apartment so I thought I had a social life ahead of me. Well, that didn’t happen, but I love this song!!!

10 Pounds
I was thinking about my eye doctor appointment yesterday and it is going to take me a few more days to process, but thinking about the last time I got weighed. It was in June when I saw my PCP. That was the appointment where she told me that my weight is of no concern. Well, that’s the first time I heard that in my lifetime!
I thought of this song because based on my last weight and given my current weight, this song popped into my head because I lost ‘10 pounds’ without doing anything. But I don’t think I am in danger because I’ve been on nutrition shakes for over a year. I just thought of this song and I love her:
I think it is strange that now I am completely in the realm of the infirmed… 😒😒😒…
I Can’t!
I posted on Facebook yesterday a video of the top 20 songs that you forgot were Awesome! And I must tell you, pretty much every song was pretty awesome!!! but then there’s this song which takes me back to being 12-year-old “Jen.” I was “Jenny” back then. And this was my jam!!!:
As I was searching in YouTube for this song, I actually found this video that has this song the movie in it and I think I have pretty much forgotten that movie! It is way too hot to watch it now, but I think I will watch it in the fall. I’m racking up movies to watch when I can see straight. I told my Mom today that I can’t see past my pain right now because I can’t!
Rando Tune #49
I think that it’s the heat! I have been doing puzzles because it keeps my mind off of the pain I feel in this heat! I have been listening to to my Gavin DeGraw playlist, and then songs just play after that. A lot of Train, The Script, Sara Bareilles. I don’t mind and just let it play.
I have heard this song so much! I’m not sure if we were living in our house yet but I remember this song being back when I thought that I could have a social life. How dumb?! Here’s the song that made me cry, and I’m not sure why, but I think it’s the heat. I am barely holding on!!!
[Not so] Random Tune #48
I’ve dug this song since our second department! But, I must say that now that I take cinnamon every morning, it’s not ‘so sweet’ at all! I was not prepared for it to taste so hot, but it does. But, hat or not, I will be taking it for the rest of my life!
Rando Tune #46
This song popped up into my playlist after I was finished listening to The Script:
I dug this movie so much, and I loved this song when it came out. However, as a single mother, I thought I would like it MORE than I do now. I just remember high school days when I hear the song now.
Martika?!!!!
I watched this entire video and totally enjoyed it!!!:
There were definitely some bangers on this list! I texted my oldest brother and told him that I am about six or seven and hearing these songs from our basement of our house through the floorboards.
But, Martika started it off?! That was my jam!!! A Kids Incorporated alumn?!
Fergie was on that show too, but she was just Stacy back then. I had to watch this video a number of times💯💯💯
An Encore Performance
I told my Mom about the movie that I watched yesterday so I decided to watch it again today! She ended up coming back here early today, so I decided this would be an encore performance and I restarted the movie and we saw it together. We haven’t watched a movie together in a long time! Because I watched the same movie again, I didn’t post the song that I had forgotten about but then I remembered when I heard it:
