Reading Halley’s weblog this morning reminded me of a time way back
when growing up in the Chicago area. We used to have some really
good radio stations on of which played music in sets with a
theme. I’m pretty sure it was WJKL in Elgin which is now a Contemporary Christian station.
Back then it was a rock station. I think it was the station that
didn’t run any pre-recorded commercials, they were all read by the
DJ’s. Anyway they used to play nice long 5 or 6 song sets of
music where each song in the set had some sort of connection to the
others. As each set began it was fun to try and figure out what the
theme was, and once you guessed the theme, to then try and guess
what the next song might be.
Halley sure has a theme going this morning, and it was fun to listen to
all the different tunes. I tried my hand too at something to turn on my radio.
It looks like Halley is having some feel good time. I have to wonder about who she may be posting all this love. She seems so wound up I’m wondering if she’s trying to tell people to just get over it.
It’s hard for me to listen to all those love songs and not think about my first great love. As I opened my Fathers Day cards and gift I realized I will always see her face when I look at my daughters. And I also realize that that the love I have for Cindy is different now, no less, but different. I also realize that as time goes on I am changing too.
