Storms are forever in your eyes

You may recognize the above lyric from the Starship song "Sara". I just saw it on a VH1 special about bad break-up songs. They said that essentially no one likes this song unless you are named Sara.

I love the song just cuz they spell it correctly.

In high school, a boy in my homeroom named Eric would serenade me with this song whenever I was at my locker at the same time as him. It wasn't a romantic thing: For the four years of high school I dated for exactly two months so I was more than available. I have this theory that I'm just someone to sing to.

But, does the song fit? Storms in my eyes? Check. Fire and ice? I'm a Scorpio. Odds are good that, if I'm not giddy or irate, I'm tired. No time is a good time for goodbyes?

Too true.

Sara,

I named my daughter, Sara, after hearing the other popular "Sara" song on the radio when I was pregnant - "Sara Smile" by Hall and Oates. The song made me smile so I felt the name had a good feeling connected to it. I can't imagine her as anything else now but I suppose most people feel that way about their names.
