Chapter 4 / Day 4

Howdy,

I’ve been listening to way too much Country Music lately. I say ‘way too much’, but I don’t really know why… can you have way too much country? Yes. Especially when you start writing broken heart songs in your head about bad lovers and lost dogs… or vice versa.

So. Something I stumbled upon that looks pretty good (to me… apparently not to others) is this coming soon movie called…

Country Strong

check out the trailer here

I personally love Gwyneth Paltrow. She seems to get criticized a fair bit. I think some people actually think she’s British instead of American. haha anyway, I can’t help but adore her. For me I divide my silly ‘I don’t know you but you’re famous and I’ve decided I do’, love for her into 2 parts.  There’s the BSOTRA love and the ASOTRA love. Sounds kind of fancy and Latin right? Nah, it just means that I had an admiration before I saw her in the program Spain on the Road Again, and after I saw the program.

The show itself is one of my favourite series on cooking. Watching Gwyneth being completely real (as far as we know) was great. I hate to be one of those weird fans who wish they could be friends with a celebrity because they’re sure they’d hit it off… but man. With Gwyneth I really do. And to top it off she’s married to my High-School dream man.. Chris Martin de Coldplay.

I bought the series on iTunes and continue to watch it now & then… it’s pretty good.

I know good fried chicken and I’m footwear intolerant. As years have gone by, I’ve slowly come to like Country music more and more… a fact that breaks my Hispanic momma’s heart.

So I’ll leave you with a few of my favourite country songs/singers. I know I’m probably behind in the times… but oh well. I don’t live in the US, so who am I to know the latest in Country..? I’ll just share with ya’ll what I like.

bye for now,

Charlie.
