I heard the monkey song...

When I run outside I take my music and I never add anything and I also don't take anything away. Actually I think Richard picked all the songs that I listen to, but they are good and I get used to them. Although random they play in approximate order so I get to expect certain songs around certain places in my run. My run starts with New York New York and there is sounds of Canada from KD Lang, It's Raining Men, a little Prince and somewhere in there is the monkey song (not called that). Yes my monkey song. It gets stuck in my head, it picks up my feet and makes that darn loop seem better (and it is nice that the shopping song comes next). But what the monkey song also does is it makes me think of Robin.
Love how the bubbles look fake

I wonder what Robin is doing. I wonder what Korea looks like when you live there. I wonder about the kids she teaches and the stuff she does. I think about her life with Samuel and pray that it is well. I think about it for the whole song. I don't know why monkeys and Robin go together but they do for me and now maybe they do for you. So play the monkey song and spend some time thinking tonight.

  1. Um...you think about me when you hear a song about chimpanzees? Or is that the song is about postcards, and you want me to write you a postcard? Or is it that the song is by The Barenaked Ladies and that reminds you of me because I don't like pants? It's a baffling connection.

  2. I don't know why there is a connection but there is. Monkeys and Robin joined in my head. It is a good song too. I can't find any monkey postcards.
