(and you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile, and you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife, and you may ask yourself -- well, how did I get here?)
I have moments when I completely identify with this song -- when I stop and look around myself and go wait a second, how the heck --
The latest example: this afternoon, after merrily scrubbing the bathroom (we have not quite yet reached cat-vaccuuming territory, but we're getting close), I found myself discussing life with a very dear friend of mine. Now, about two hours later, we are going to Alaska.
And when I say "going to Alaska", I mean, we are doing it the old-fashioned way. We are roadtripping it. Flying to Seattle (we are not stupid), renting a car, and trekking on up. And okay, we're waiting until summer to do it -- see above regarding 'not stupid' -- which is a bit more delayed-gratification than I generally like to get with travel, but it means I get to spend Midsummer above the Arctic Circle. And dude. How cool is that? Maybe we'll find the hand of Franklin reaching for the Beaufort Sea.
(I apologize to those of you whom I have now earwormed. With either song.)
