Rush projects in the pay job were called in yesterday afternoon, so I’m swamped. Making sacrifices-Can’t go to the OKRWA meeting. 🙁 — this weekend so I can make up writing goals and carve out some badly needed kiddo time. Plus, I need to be writing. The story is so alive and I’m frustrated by every moment I spend doing something else.
So to cheer myself up, I’ve been playing some of my top songs from the eighties.
This first song was my absolute favorite. I can still listen to this one and get pulled back into the moods and emotions I felt as a teenager when it was popular. Yesterday was particularly long and rough, so I listened to it. A lot.

Donald Fagan has a more recent CD with great songs–one is the H Gang. Really “feel good” type music. My kids think I’m ill when I put in these CDs–they say it doesn’t fit my normal listens. (Moody Trip Hop or pretty hard rock–like Korn or Tool.) I tell them to never put themselves in a box. <g> I became a Fagan fan with this song.
