I've this crazy old notion that calls me sometimes...

These posts, each one part of the soundtrack of my life. As I post, I place each one into a special mix on my iPod as they each become anthems and odes to certain points in my life.

Just today, I thought of this haunting melody as I rode around through someone else's town. I looked out the window on 16th street and saw you. I managed a half-hearted smile. You smiled back and winked.

I turned to look back, but the driver had moved on. I keep saying that you'll come for me. You'll see me in a car or on a bus, or walking across the street and you will know me. The soundtrack pumping electronically through my ears will mix with yours like some subconscious soul mash-up.
