i like to sing along..

.... i sing to songs.

... and i sing out loud.

....and i sing in front of others.

welp, sometimes i sing to songs and i think i know what its saying, but i dont.

Dont act like you've never done this.

My favorite mistake in a song i've made is to that song "live like you were dying" by Tim McGraw.

I always thought it went like such:

"I went skyyydivin, I went Rocky mountain climbin, I went 2.7 seconds on a four wheel drive tailgate."

Skydivin= big deal. Rocky mountain climbin= big deal for some. Four wheel drive tailgate= ?? Did I know why that was such a big deal? No. Maybe because it was a bumpy road and he was in the back of a truck- i don't know. But i didn't question it.

....until i sang it in front of my sisters, and they laughed as they pointed out that those aren't even the words.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiOcW_YR1G8 watch the video. the chorus starts at 1:03

APPARENTLY its 2.7 second on a bull named blue man shoe, or something like that. It makes more sense, makes the song a lot better... but between you and me, I still sing it my way. I secretly like it better because I have been skydiving, rock mountain climbing, and 2.7 seconds on a four wheel drive tailgate too. So yes, i relate to that much, much better anyways.


either way- someday i actually do hope you all get the chance to live like you were dying. don't be embarrassed or sweat the small stuff. sing songs outloud, even if you dont know the words. the classic "fade and slur the words to the parts you dont really know but try to make it seem like you know what your saying (ie: that chumbawumba song.... i get knocked down, but i get up again... do wah de da de dah dowahdo.... i get knowcked down, but i get up again... fle flop flu fla de dah de dah do....)" cop out works almost everytime.

again, dont act like you never do this.

truth or dare?

My life as of late has been LAME. no funny sayings, which is unusual.

SO, i need to start doing more crazy things and reporting on the outcomes.

I will be taking DARES. Those who know me, if you dare me, i will do it if it isnt gay.

For example. Last week I went to dinner with a big group of work people. they dared me to talk to a table of 3 hottie hotties. They thought I wouldn't do it.

PAH-LEASE! as if that scares me at all. So, with my hair looking crazy flying everywhere because i was riding with the top off my car, I walk up to this table of boys and chat it up for a while. because i wanted to date any of them? nope, i've recently DESPISED dating actually, but i did it because they didnt think i actually would.

This lack of hesitancy when it comes to boys goes way back to the first grade, it all started with a letter i wrote to the hottest boy in the whole grade....


Yep, i gave that to him. i'm pretty sure Kaitlyn Clark dared me to do it.

SO- we will be playing truth or Dare, send me a comment on here, or a facebook message, or an e-mail. and i will either answer a question, or perform your dare. HOWEVER, you have to do one too. this game could get huge, i think its a SIIICK idea, i love it.

SO, Truth or Dare, READY- Set- GO!
