I Am Not Ready For Autumn

When I walked out of work today (at the oh so advanced hour of 2:30 pm) the shadows were already starting to grow long and the air had a distinctive, autumnal lack of warmth. I am not thrilled about this. Especially given that in two weeks, I'll set back the clocks, so it will get dark even earlier.

On a completely different note, Reba has a new song out, called "Turn On The Radio."



Now, I'm not a big country fan, but I have a fondness for Reba, and this is a catchy tune, but why the hell does every single country artist ever need to write a song that's all 'dear ex: suck it, I'm famous now, bet you're regretting not treating me better now, huh? Vengefully yours, country singer.'

Don't any of them start writing and then go 'wait a minute, I've heard this song a billion times' and then scrap it?

Apparently not.

So you're saying that you like it in theory but not in practice?

(Also, with these songs I am always bugged by the assumption that the ex wants the singer back. What if they were like, 'yeah, my ex made it big, but frankly, no amount of money/fame would have made it worth putting up with his/her issues.'
