soundtracks.

i think i live my life in soundtracks.
i'll be doing something, and a song will come to mind as i do it. or, if i hear a song, i imagine it taking place at a certain part of my life.
for example, i borrows one republic from the library. after listening to the songs and reading the pamphlet insert that comes with it, i believe they are a Christian band. which is pretty cool, because they are played in seccular music. they have a hit right now, 'apologize' with timbaland. so as i cleaned my very dirty sink (after being reminded to clean kitchen sinks while at B's house yesterday) 'apologize' came on. so i cranked it up. i love the song because while the lyrics are simple, they fit perfectly with the music, and the lead singer sings with a lot of passion. i like music sung with passion.
anyways.
i began thinking about my 'other' book. the book that will be published under pseudonym because i think some people might be hurt because it's a 90% memoir, 10% fiction. in the book, the main character, serendipity, cheats on her husband, going away with 'patrick' to florida where she then decides to visit her dead grandmother's favourite place in florida at 3am. and as she's walking, she's trying to figure it all out, and that's when the song would come on. that's the soundtrack song. so now i'm imagining the movie aspect of it (i think it would do well), and i can see the bright moon, and hear the loud waves as the tide goes out, but it's cold. and as she's walking in the dark, not really paying attention to whether there is danger around her or not, her feet are freezing, but you 'have' to walk in sand with bare feet. it's like an unwritten rule or something. and as she's thinking, about hubby, about patrick, about her grandmother, this song comes on. and when she gets to her grandmother's old trailer that has been there for many years, she collapses on the porch and cries. cue chorus. it fits.

i think i need to change that book into a screenplay. i think it might be time to work on a movie....
starring me of course.
