Seriously, the fifth time through this song and I was a puddle. If you remember a few months ago, Mondo Cozmo made me a puddle back then with "Hold On To Me", but this is a different puddle altogether. As an adult, I am quite capable of having multiple puddles. Once you hit 36 they consider you multipuddle capable bro.

Anywho, when a song reminds you of all the best parts of Bob Dylan without actually sounding like a near death Bob Dylan, you know that shit's a ringer. Completely comfortable and directly fucking related to all of my friends, but unbelievably introverted in that it sort of makes me feel like I'm listening to the song in the hopes that my friends can calm the fuck down.

Yesterday my wife and I had a conversation about a friend of ours who had a kid who was perpetually sick. Like, at the first sign of a sniffle this lady went into overprotective mom mode and within days the kid would be admitted to the hospital with tubes all shoved in every fucking hole. Sure, it was horrible for the kid, and yea we've shared our concern for the well being of the entire family. But a mutual friend said something over drinks that I had never considered.

"What if she just calmed the fuck down this time? You think the kid might just need space and some hope?"

Yea dude. I think we could all use some fucking space and hope.

Here's to hope.

Here's to Mondo Cozmo.
