Just A Moment

So the other day I was doing an interview and afterwards stopped at Del Taco for a drink as I was hot and incredibly thirsty. I wasn’t ready to head home, so I sat for a while in my car reading. I was parked near the door next to a Ducati motorcycle. I just love Ducati‘s, they are just so awesome!

Now I don’t know a lot about motorcycles, but I do know about Ducatis. I read this book series as a kid, and one the characters wanted one. I decided to read more about them, to see what’s so special and I was hooked. Beautiful machines.

So anyways, as I was sitting there this gorgeous, tall, dirty blonde in a leather jacket comes out of the Del Taco.

And I’m thinking, he may not be a Dean Winchester:

But he comes pretty smack close to being perfect.

Ah, so handsome with the best smile. How you may ask? Because I talked to him.

I had parked crooked so I asked him if he could get out alright. He told me he couldn’t that it would be impossible.

Oh no! I can’t believe I did that! I told him I would get out of the way, but he said it was fine. He was just kidding. And then he laid out that snile.

Shot me right through the heart.

After that we flirted a bit and I complimented his Ducati. He was surprised that I knew bikes and impressed. He started on his way, but shot one last smile at me.

After he left I was like why hadn’t I asked for his name! Ugh!

Stupid, stupid

I then had to text my friends and gush over him. Pretty much the same thing I am doing to you all. Their responses were hilarious.

Me: I just talked to the cutest guy. Tall, dirty blonde, black leather jacket, and a Ducati. Swoon! Too bad I didn’t get his name.

Friend 1: Or number, he probably would have given it to you.

Friend 2: What! How could you not? I’m disappointed in you.

Friend 3: Well now how are you going to facebook stalk him?

Oh well. At least I had the moment. And who knows, maybe in the future we’ll meet again. Probably not, but:

Highway Star

This is how I feel about Highway Star by Deep Purple.

My love for this song came around when Rock Band came out and it was all my friends were playing. When I saw Highway Star that was it, that was the only song I wanted to play/sing.

I just love this song for three main reasons:

1. The Lyrics are super easy to remember
2. You don’t have to sing it well, in fact it sounds better when sung badly
3. It has amazing guitar! This song is just so awesome, words cannot describe how I feel about the guitar solo.

 

Not to mention the epic organ!

Just make sure your musical genius doesn’t lead you to becoming a stalker or murderer

I mean to be honest this is me throughout the whole song.

This is my cruisin’ song. When I was practicing for my driver’s test (which I passed) I would sing this all the time.

The song was actually created on accident during a tour in 1971. A reporter interviewing the group asked how they wrote songs and guitarist Ritchie Blackmore grabbed his guitar and began playing a “G” riff over and over, while the vocalist Ian Gillan just made things up. The song was later retooled and performed that night. Deep Purple is so awesome.

So here are the lyrics, make sure when you listen you crank it up ands let it rip!

Nobody gonna take my car
I’m gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car
It’s gonna break the speed of sound
Oooh it’s a killing machine
It’s got everything
Like a driving power big fat tires
and everything

I love it and I need it
I bleed it yeah it’s a wild hurricane
Alright hold tight
I’m a highway star

Nobody gonna take my girl
I’m gonna keep her to the end
Nobody gonna have my girl
She stays close on every bend
Oooh she’s a killing machine
She’s got everything
Like a moving mouth body control
and everything

I love her I need her
I seed her
Yeah She turns me on
Alright hold on tight
I’m a highway star

Nobody gonna take my head
I got speed inside my brain
Nobody gonna steal my head
Now that I’m on the road again
Oooh I’m in heaven again I’ve got everything
Like a moving ground an open road
and everything

I love it and I need it
I seed it
Eight cylinders all mine
Alright hold on tight
I’m a highway star

Nobody gonna take my car
I’m gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car
It’s gonna break the speed of sound
Oooh it’s a killing machine
It’s got everything
Like a driving power big
fat tyres and everything

I love it and I need it
I bleed it
Yeah it’s a wild hurricane
Alright hold on tight
I’m a highway star
I’m a highway star
I’m a highway star

I really wish they would put this song in Supernatural. I mean can’t you just see Dean singing it as he is in total love with his car? Right? Wouldn’t that be just perfect?
