"Emmylou," again...

24 July 2022: Feeling a bit "Sunday evening melancholy and anxious" and need to get it together in ten minutes for a work dinner (yes: on a Sunday in July). Made a wish that Pandora would play something soothing next to make it a bit better. And Pandora came through with this gem.

Not the first time I've written about this song, as indicated in this post's title. Different vibes for that day, but I like that it's come back around as "working" for the moment. 

"Fireworks"

11 June 2022: Playing on a loop in my head lately...

"Emmylou"

24 April 2019:

"I'll be your Emmylou and I'll be your June
If you'll be my Gram and my Johnny too
No, I'm not asking much of you
Just sing, little darling, sing with me..." --First Aid Kit, "Emmylou"

The semester's wrapping up, the weather is beautiful, and I've spent the morning (not unhappily) grading American literature essays. Not much to complain about at all.

I find myself  filled with a kind of pleasant pre-restlessness (is that a thing?) and thinking Big Thoughts (again, not in a bad way). This song, which I first heard at this concert back in 2015 when First Aid Kit opened for Brandi Carlile, seems like a good soundtrack for the day.
