i popped in the alanis morisette acoustic album on my way to work this morning and immediately flashed back to a late night many years ago. a good friend and kindred spirit and i were driving back from a long weekend at the orphanage – pre husbands and kids. we were talking incessantly about our love for alanis and how she just “understands” all of the insecurities and emotions that naturally flow through a woman’s body so well.
we got so fired up that we had to detour and find a target to buy a jagged little pill album since we didn’t have one in the car. we spent the rest of the trip singing at the top of our lungs – full on lilith fair style. it was one of those silly yet empowering moments that i really can’t explain well now. the great thing is, i texted said friend this morning and simply wrote, “acoustic alanis…thinking of you.” and she immediately knew what i was talking about.
