It is Friday, isn’t it? It seems like this week has kind of gotten away from me… But the sun is finally shining today, so I’m happy!
I heard an eighties song this morning and I was thinking about that time period - when music videos first came out and everything seemed so “techno”. I was into looking kind of “new wave” with bleached out hair, a single earing bigger than my fist, and a “CHOOSE LIFE” t-shirt worn with my Bongo jeans.

I remember sitting in the movie theater and a music video came on during the previews - I thought it was so cool. I thought we could never become more technologically advanced as it was in that moment…

…then my mom bought this new toothpaste called Aquafresh! It had three colors!! I thought it was like voodoo…seriously!I don’t know why I’m so easily distracted by the aesthetic…

I spent about 15 minutes this morning staring at a tree.

Byron had run into Kinkos, and there was a beautiful John Mayer song on the radio, and the tree outside my window was bright red and green…fabulous. I couldn’t take my eyes off of it. It was Aquafresh all over again!

I need to find that music video on Youtube.

I need to get my hands on another CHOOSE LIFE t-shirt!

I need to buy some Aquafresh…

P. S. - Remember how, in the eighties, a guy could sing a depressing song like “Always Something There to Remind Me”, but it seemed happy because of the techno keyboarding?

Anyway, Thank Goodness It’s Friday.
Peace. (p.s.s: choose life! )
