John and I have found ourselves listening on occasion to a radio station that plays a variety of "old" music. We especially enjoy some tunes from the 80's. Takes us back. This also reminds me of my own parents' love for listening to their "old" music back when I was a teenager. I couldn't relate to their love of that old, dated stuff.
Fast forward to the other night, Rachel and I driving home together.
The song "Angel" by Aerosmith is playing. I'm singing the parts that I remember. Rachel can barely stand it and has her hand on the button, ready to change it at any moment. Except that she knows that I'll probably smack her hand and turn it back, so she doesn't. It's posed there as a clear reminder for me to turn it, NOW!
The station is one that shows the artist and title on your car stereo. Usually, either just the title or artist remains for a long time before the other shows up. So it said "Angel" for awhile.
I'm singing along and then the artist's name comes across, "Aerosmith".
Rachel goes, "WHO the heck is that?"
I am cracking up.

Tonight, after grocery shopping, Alec and I are saying goodbye to Dad.
Dad says to Alec, "goodbye Smurf!"
Alec asks me, "What's a Smurf?"
RIOT.
Reminds me of when I told Julia that something happened "a long time ago when I was a little girl" and she asked "like in 2001 or 2002?"
I (heart) Aerosmith STILL! And I am still trying to recover from my 14 year old nephew, who does actually know who they are, calling them "posers". They aren't either!
What I really meant to say is this...
"Without your love, I'm nothin' but a beggar...without your love, a dog without a bone...what can I do?, I'm sleepin' in this bed alooooone!"
I was singing that in the car yesterday and Andrew said something like, "That's an odd way to express your loneliness."
