Rhapsodies are about being free form, having powerful and changing emotions. They are "episodic, yet integrated," as my life (and thought process and thus blog) tend to be. They are "inspired by ... romantic notions." Blue jeans are lived-in, sturdy, worn-out, and go with almost everything. My relationship with blue jeans puts me on an even level with hippies, ravers, and Russian Lit majors. We all wear the same pants. (Don't worry, we wash them in between.)
