My Style

it’s a free ride when you’re already late

July 3, 2013 By Noelle 1 Comment

An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It’s a black fly in your Chardonnay
It’s a death row pardon two minutes too late
And isn’t it ironic… don’t you think

It’s like rain on your wedding day
It’s a free ride when you’ve already paid
It’s the good advice that you just didn’t take
Who would’ve thought… it figures

Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
“Well isn’t this nice…”
And isn’t it ironic… don’t you think

It’s like rain on your wedding day
It’s a free ride when you’ve already paid
It’s the good advice that you just didn’t take
Who would’ve thought… it figures

Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything’s okay and everything’s going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything’s gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face

A traffic jam when you’re already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It’s like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It’s meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn’t it ironic…don’t you think
A little too ironic…and, yeah, I really do think…

It’s like rain on your wedding day
It’s a free ride when you’ve already paid
It’s the good advice that you just didn’t take
Who would’ve thought… it figures

Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out

Some days I am definetly feeling very 90’s. Obviously, this day was one of them.

Love,

Noelle

My postpartum experience has been such a journey a My postpartum experience has been such a journey and I’m learning to relove my body and all of the changes it’s gone through ❤️ but a big thing that’s changed is my routine and how much time I have to get ready if even more than 5 minutes each day 😂❤️ my go to for sunscreen and beautiful skin (I swear to you it gives you the best glow) is @supergoop’s Glow Screen SPF 40 ❤️ I seriously could not recommend this product more, I use it often as a bb cream sub but it also works wonderful as a primer before your foundation (while also keeping your skin safe from the sun!) it’s a dreammm product!
