Saturday Afternoon (Between Space's Mixtape Challenge)

One beautiful afternoon, our beloved Kermit was outdoors painting the exterior walls, of a clients house. Not too far away was his portable cd player. His best friend gave him for christmas the year prior. Now it is always with him. Right now it is playing his favorite song. Hey There Delilah by Plain White T’s. Kermit moves his paint brush in time with the music. Singing along with the lyrics as he goes. He never misses a lyric.. This song he knows word for word.

After the song ended, he wondered what was next. This cd was created by his friend. It was a surprise.. The tracks were not listed on the Jewel Case.. As he made another stroke with his brush, He was serenated to the opening notes, of the song, Beer for my horses. His favorite Toby Keith song. He is amused by the selection on the cd thus far.

He starts a new section of the home, when he hears My Way by none other than the man, Frank Sinatra He felt so lucky to posess this cd. And as a grand finale, Thunder by Boys Like Girls
