The Runaway Bride

I realized something last night.  I'm kind of like Julia Roberts in "The Runaway Bride".  You know how she never really knows her own identity?  She has to actually do some soul searching to know what kind of eggs she likes?  I used to be like that.  Really sad.  Mine wasn't eggs, or clothes...mine was music.  What kind of music do I really like?  It's taken me a few years of soul searching to decide.  It seems I switched "favorites" as my boyfriends changed.  Went through a Christian / Jazz phase (boyfriend #1)  Then a Country phase. (Boyfriends #2 and 3)  Then a Kid Rock / Limp Bizkit phase (boyfriend #4)  Then rap / alternative music (Lincoln).  Now that I'm secure in myself and mature enough to make may own decisions, I have found that I like a wide variety of music.  I enjoy some of what I used to listen to with each boyfriend - I'm still a fan of Christian bands such as FFH and Mercy Me, I enjoy some Louis Armstrong once in awhile.  I like Keith Urban and Martina McBride.  I like listening to some old school Kid Rock (his original album) about once a year.  I love Angie Aparo and laugh out loud when I hear old school rap ring tones that I know all of the [horrible] words to.  I have since realized I love Whitney Houston, old school Brittany Spears, Rascal Flatts, old Usher, Justin Timberlake, and Beyonce.

I have been going through this dilemma for a while now!! Ever since I stopped listening to rap music a few years ago, I'm still trying to decide what I like now. Hmm..
