Day 7 is a quirky selection: a song that reminds you of a certain event. I had to think about this one for a while…
Here’s what I came up with:
Now, I am not a big country music fan. But I did go through a phase where I listened to a lot of country music, and frequented a bunch of country-music nights in the local bar scene. One of the first times I felt a real connection to my husband was before we were really dating. We spent a lot of time together, just as friends (he was interested but I hadn’t come around yet), and one night we went to the new bar, Round Up, in the next city over.
Alison Krauss’s “When You Say Nothing At All” came on over the speakers and I dragged him out to the dance floor for a slow dance. I didn’t have to drag him too hard, as I recall, he went more than willingly. I remember looking at up him during this dance and was a little surprised at the way he was looking back at me. I felt a little butterfly in my stomach in that moment. I remember resting my head on his shoulder and liking the way his arms felt around me.
And the rest, as they say, is history…
