Back to the '80s
Mood:  not sure
Now Playing: Sexuality, by Billy Bragg; R.I.P. Kirsty MacColl
Topic: Fun and nonsense

Not that I'm complaining in the least, but there was an interesting phenomenon at play tonight. I was shopping in Whole Foods, and the background music was mostly '80s new wave - which is a very good thing - and "Dirty Creature" by Split Enz came on. "Wow," I thought. "You never hear Split Enz anywhere - Crowded House, sure, but not Split Enz." From there I headed over to Starbucks for my half-caf, venti, no foam latter, and what was playing when I walked in? Why, Split Enz, "I Got You." I'm not sure if I should feel old or young because of this.

Oh, and good news on the sports front today: The Badgers beat Iowa! Woo! And, the Sox beat the Devil Rays to clinch a post-season berth and keep the 2.5 game lead over the Yanks. Whew!
