Stroke Me

Can I tell you how excited I am?????

We are going to see Billy Squier, tomorrow night.

Billy Squier (along with Queen) is the very first concert I ever saw. Way back in 1982...with my dad! None of my girlfriends were interested in going so my dad stepped up to take me. We had a blast. One of my favorite memories of the evening was my dad razzing the guys sitting next to us, all evening long. It was SOOO obvious that they were totally trashed. To be honest I don't think they even knew who was performing that night.

So needless to say, Billy Squier and Queen hold a special spot with me. I still have my original concert tshirt, tucked away in my hope chest. Its really old and musty.....and REALLY small. I think the only person who could wear it now is my petite 14 year old. But I am scared to have her try it on for fear it will disintegrate right in front of me. I'm pulling it out and taking it with me tomorrow. *Maybe* I can track Billy down and have him sign it????

I've been checking out www.BillySquier.com today. Same songs....still rock...but he has tweaked them a bit. They sound GREAT. If you get a chance, check it out.....

HNT Flashback: The beginning of my Sunglasses Obsession

While going through my pics for Tuesdays blog, I found this pic:


Last day of school my Junior Year (1984). I remember the night before my best friend (who lived with us) and I had a bunch of gals over. We were excited it was our last day as Juniors and next year we would be SENIORS. WAHOO!!! So we all wore sunglasses to class the entire day. LOL

Boy was I just too cool. I look like an ad for the Blues Brothers. Can those glasses get any bigger on my face? And I kinda miss the Farrah hairstyle!

I find it funny that way back then, Sunglasses were important to me:-)
