.: Move Along:.

Not the most brilliant thing I’ve done.

I’d locked my car keys into the condo/house that we’d had in Lahaina. I already had a pretty tight chance of making the 10:59 flight out to the mainland. So after a brief stint breaking and then unbreaking into this house, I found myself late for my flight. My sister informed me that I could try to catch the flight an hour later. I sped down the coast of Maui only to find that the airport was closed. There was no one there to process me through. What a waste of a trip. This would make my sixth trip to the airport or its surrounding area. ARGH.

Luckily, Joe from Budget gave me THE best customer service. He drove me in the rental car over to the airport hoping that I would be able slip in under the gun. He also took care of my paperwork considering I lost all my major travel information _somewhere_.
That and he was cute.

After much chatting at the America West operator, I failed to rip her a new one. I would have to fly standby or pay the fee and the difference in price. This was the even more irritating part of the entire stupid situation.

But I drove back to Lahaina, once again. This time I took my time. I watched the moon, so huge and pale. I watched it shine its light onto the ocean. I heard the waves and smelled the salty tropical air. Then I rolled all the windows down and turned up the radio. This was the song I sang along with. Fitting, I think.


Move Along – All American Rejects


Go ahead as you waste your days with thinking
When you fall everyone sins
Another day and you've had your fill of sinking
With the life held in your
Hands are shaking cold
These hands are meant to hold

Speak to me, when all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through
Move along
Move along

So a day when you've lost yourself completely
Could be a night when your life ends
Such a heart that will lead you to deceiving
All the pain held in your
Hands are shaking cold
Your hands are mine to hold

Speak to me, when all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through
Move along
(Go on, go on, go on, go on)

When everything is wrong we move along
(Go on, go on, go on, go on)

When everything is wrong, we move along
Along, along, along

When all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through
[x3]

(Move along)
(Go on, go on, go on, go on)
Right back what is wrong
We move along
