You Can't Always Get What You Want

Yesterday I worked for several hours and then picked up Ernie and we went over to visit some friends. It was wonderful to see them but heartbreaking because he is very ill with cancer and I love both of them with all my heart. It felt good to be with them though, to sit and talk. We left and were heading home. I was tired but suddenly I asked Ernie to buy me a drink. I was sad and didn't feel like going straight home to the guys. He took me to Fries and Peanuts. We sat there talking. I teared up a bit. We talked some more.

It was relatively quiet in there....there was no music playing on the jukebox. Suddenly, during a lull in our conversation and seemingly out of nowhere, the intro to Queen's Fat Bottomed Girls came blaring out. Ernie and I paused, looked at each other, looked away, looked at one another again....and started giggling hysterically. I can't even tell you why.

Sometimes you get what you need, huh?
