Rainy Day Playlist

There is this quiet that just envelopes me at times that is simply impossible to elucidate. I've felt extremely mellow for the past few days, just in a sort of haze. Maybe it's the weather getting me down, or perhaps the music. Don't get me wrong, I've been perky and energetic and happy. But it's just sort of in a daze. As soon as I'm alone a moment, it seeps in as I breathe, through my lungs and into my bloodstream, controlling the beat of my heart and the heaviness of my eyelids. It's could be compared to a movie, when a scene plays to a particular mellow song. I feel like my life has been lived on a soundtrack lately.

The Rainy Day Playlist consists of songs by Amos Lee, Ben Folds, Billy Joel, The Bonfire Orchestra, Damien Rice, Diana Krall, Drew Gatlin, Five for Fighting, The Fray, Jack Johnson, Jeff Buckley, Josh Ritter, Regina Spektor, and Train.

I'm hoping that a roadtrip home Friday evening will pull me out of this funk and out the rolled-down windows. Or maybe a good run set to a different type of music.
