I can honestly say I had no teen or preteen celeb crushes. Don't know why, just didn't. Didn't have many real people I knew ones either. Many embarrassing things from those years, but I skipped that part.
My drink of choice is straight up single malt scotch. Had a thing for g&ts with lime but soon figured out that t& lime was really what I liked. Though gin is still good.
I actually had you in my "26-28" column.
Well, if it makes you feel any better, my students thought I was some sort of prodigy when they googled me and realized I graduated college in '89. Hah!
Music when we were in college really wasn't very...good.
I don't know, it was a pretty good time for alternative music. But Bruce and U2 were pretty big at my school as well. It was quite a change from my prep school, which was heavy into the Grateful Dead, Bob Marley, etc.
I heard word that it's Erika's birthday. Hit a shot of Jameson's for me!
I was in college '79 to '83.
Lots
of great music came out in that stretch.
Mmmm, Violent Femmes.
Too bad about Willy. I guess he didn't sing a duet with the sheriff in Lafayette the way he did in Jefferson Parish - I always assumed that was a "I won't see those drugs if you let me sing" deal because Sheriff Lee was a truly terrible singer.
I don't really know anything about NKoTB, possibly because I am approximately Cindy vintage.
Happy birthday Erika!!
Erika, I wish you a Stamos, Cassidy, or long-haired pretty of your choice...
Trudy, it's my birthday Wednesday, so if you could send Rick Springfield my way...
Guest #1 left this afternoon. Guest #2 of the week arrives tomorrow, with her dog. God knows what surprises will arrive with Guest #3 on Friday. (That's my sister, so likely a frozen lasagna from my mother.)
I seem to have graduated right from the Monkees into Lou Reed and Iggy Pop. Perhaps David Bowie was an intermediate step? Ah well.
My sister!
mine too! mine too! well I was freshman 86/87 anyways.

It was for me in Boston living across the street from the Paradise. Pixies! Throwing Muses! etc., etc.
Is anyone else watching Studio 60? Miss Isringhausen from Deadwood is in it! It's okay. Maybe too Sorkiny for me.
I'm watching Studio 60 but I haven't seen deadwood yet so have no idea what you're talking about except that it is chockful of actors I recognize as well as actors who look really really familiar.

She was also in Serenity.
