Five more days! Then I will finally get to see the movie I have been waiting for most of this year. I don’t think I’ve ever counted down the days to a movie before. It’s also strange to think that this time last year, I had no idea what Twilight was even about.

If you haven’t guessed by now, the movie I’m talking about is New Moon. I’m making an event out of it — some friends are coming over to eat Italiano, watch Twilight and then go to the theater. At the time I was planning this, I thought it would be easier for everyone to get together on Saturday. Now I realize the rest of the world will get to see the movie a day before we do. What was I thinking?

I’ve added a new subcategory to the Music category called “Themes.”  As I was listening to music the other day at work, I realized a lot of my favorite songs have a similar subject, theme or characteristic.  So I thought I would post some of these and you can suggest songs for me to try or give me ideas for other themes.  In case I haven’t mentioned it before, I love comments.

Today’s theme is driving. I love any song that talks about driving or going somewhere. It’s probably because I love to drive especially since I got the coolest car ever.  I have always wanted to just get in my car and drive until I run out of gas, fill up and then come back. Until I do that, I’ll just settle for taking the long way home.

So this post’s title is a line in one of my driving songs.  It is “Days Go By” by Keith Urban. Click More to see my list and some of my favorite lyrics for each song.
