I must have been a strange little 8 year old...

FLASHBACK!!!!!
So, I was lying in bed last night trying to go to sleep and a song popped into my head. I don't know what kind of drugs my mom must have been slippin in my spaghettios in 1983 but I had the strangest and varied taste in music. In an earlier blog, I already proclaimed my love for Cyndi Lauper...wait for it...
Apparently, as I recall, I also had a fancy for the song Islands in the Stream by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton because that's the song that I couldn't clear outta my cranium last night. I'm a little embarassed to admit it but I definately recall having the record and playing it frequently.
Some of the other faves in my music collection around that time were Abracadabra by the Steve Miller Band, Footloose by Kenny Loggins, Jack and Diane by John Cougar (there was no Mellancamp at that time) and maybe a year or so later Maneater by Hall and Oates.
As I write this list, I am laughing my ass off and realizing that I have always been a strange little bird...

Ya'll come back now, ya hear???
