I have always loved my 80s rock, and my love remains pure. I even like many pieces of disco.

So there.

Although, truthfully, I saw this line and was like, "Fee, lay, ee, ay, en? Filet -- and a bunch of vowels?

Yeah, I tried to figure out what she was trying to spell too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I can use my cell phone when the power's out.

You can, but the internet phone people can't. They can use their phone when your usual tower is out, but you might have difficulty.

sits next to Connie, gives her a copy of "My Secret Shame", the CD with songs from Poison, Whitesnake, Def Leppard, etc. that everyone says they hate, but always asks for a copy of.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I... just couldn't write it that way. I can't even check my iPod, because I'm pretty sure I changed it during a grammatical hissy fit.

SEE!!! Power ballads make the baby Chicago Manual cry.

You should totally move here! We have a french school and everything. And movies. Two things vital to your career.

This has been contemplated more than once. And every position in the Bay Area remotely connected to what I do gets a hit: Medieval history, Quebecois literature... sure, I can fake that!

Wait, you guys actually *own* your secret shame music?

Man. I'm doing something wrong.

Though I do own some ABBA. Does that count?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

There is no shame in owning ABBA!

If anyone needs help figuring out statewide ballot issues/bond referenda, let me know--I've got them all on a database here at work, and will be in at 6:30 on Wednesday morning to update said database with the election results (yay?). Also have a city issue for Boulder, for some reason I know not.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

This and Steph's semicolon are why I love us.

There HAS to be a semicolon between "streetlights" and "people," otherwise it makes no sense! t /demented editor

Wait, you guys actually *own* your secret shame music?

Oh, yeah. Two words: Milli. Vanilli.
