Next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways...

Balmy nights are meant for flying down the interstate, windows down, music blaring. My soundtrack was Billy Joel's "It's Still Rock And Roll To Me" and Blues Traveler's "Run Around." John Popper wrote it in his pre-gastric bypass days. I know every single word and I sang it loud, with my arm straight-up out the window, resisting the wind.

And shake me and my confidence

About a great many things

But I've been there I can see it cower

Like a nervous magician waiting in the wings

Of a bad play where the heroes are right

And nobody thinks or expects too much

And Hollywood's calling for the movie rights

Singing hey babe let's keep in touch

Hey baby let's keep in touch

Tonight, we celebrated. Em finished the marathon. Nat is a fabulous cheerleader. And I had some celebrating to do of my own. Stay tuned, and soon you'll find out why...
