{Remind me}

As most of y'all know, I'm originally from Houston, TX (which is where I'm living again, currently) so even though I did grow up mostly in Baltimore, I do have a big place in my heart for country music. When I was growing up, watching Reba on the Country Music Awards was one of the biggest highlights of the year. In the late 90's,  a lot of the new country music coming out wasn't quite my thang, but every once in a while there are some new songs that I hear on the radio that I still fall in love with. Currently, that song is the new duet between Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley called Remind Me. I wish SO BAD that there was a live version of this on youtube or a music video to post because I have a feeling it will be thebomb.com. I think the lyrics are so sweet and true. It's sad that so often we are so forgetful to show the people we love the attention that they deserve. Little by little, it becomes easier and easier to stop doing the things for one another that made you fall in love with each other to begin with. I so admire those couples who still go on dates years and years later, who still take the time to write a little love note, who get dressed up for one another, who lounge in their sweatpants together but he still tells her she looks pretty,  and who take the time to surprise each other. I think it's a rare kind of love, but one that I definitely aspire to.
