Hey, yes, I know, it’s been forever.\u00a0 Or at least, far too long.\u00a0 As always, time gets away from me, and things get complicated.\u00a0 In any event, this was worth sharing.<\/p>\n
You might not be surprised to hear this, but I’m the kind of guy who walks around singing a lot.\u00a0 This is somewhat unfortunate, considering my singing voice, but still.\u00a0 Considering my advanced age, it probably won’t surprise you that many of the songs that I walk around singing are, shall we say, less than current.\u00a0\u00a0 Yesterday, while getting out the door to go shopping for cat food, Coke, and a 16-foot long 2×12 (you should see our dinners), I found myself singing Eddie Money’s “Take Me Home Tonight,” which I must have heard on the radio recently, since I seem to remember some of the words.<\/p>\n
“I can feel your heart beat faster\u00a0\/ Take me home tonight \/ I don’t want to let you go ’til we see the light \/ Take me home tonight…”<\/p>\n
Whereupon Number One Son, in all his 14-yr-old glory, looks at me and interjects, “Well, OK, but you could at least buy me dinner first.”<\/p>\n
\u00a0Fourteen years old and he’s still making me say, “Huh?”<\/a><\/p>\n I leave you with Eddie, Ronnie, and the ’80s. But please, buy her dinner first.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
