Summer, you are so close, but so far away! Okay not that far away, but I'm ready for it to be here. I'm just going to say, that I will most likely be putting this in every post from now on until the summer gets here. It seems that every time the summer comes around there are 2 things that I do to get ready for it.

1) I start wearing my hair as crazy curly as I can.

2) I begin to listen to rock music.

These two things get me mentally prepared for the season coming for really random reasons. Wearing my hair long & curly makes me feel carefree & let's me feel like a "gypsy" again. I try to contain that part of myself during the winter season so I can stay focus. It doesn't always work. This is also the first summer in three years that I have had my hair long, so I'm a little excited about it.

There is just something about having all your car windows down, having the sun shine in on you & listening to good ol' rock music. I have been listening to Kings Of Leon a lot because I really enjoy their southern rock blues sound. Driving the other day, Shea said, "Can we not listen to Kings Of Leon, you are driving me a little crazy." Maybe I should tone it down just a bit, woops.

I do love this song Buttons, by The Weeks. They are a local band in my old stopping grounds, Jackson, MS.

So on this Music Monday I would like to know if any of you have some good rock bands you listen to? New, Old, it doesn't matter. I need to start building on this genre & I think it's about time.
