-t, we had that 8-track.
I'm pretty sure the first record I paid my own money for was "Grease". Or Dolly Parton's greatest hits.
Illyria: Wesley's dead. I'm feeling grief for him. I can't seem to control it. I wish to do more violence. Spike: Well, wishes just happen to be horses today.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Gah - the mosque behind our building is having some kind of party for their school and so there are a TON of screaming kids out on the roof deck. The noise isn't the problem. The problem is that the roof deck is *right* outside my kids' bedroom window, and so I keep thinking I hear D or A crying, when actually it's just the party. SO INCREDIBLY ANNOYING.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen
The first 45 I bought with my own money was "I Love Rock 'N Roll" by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. At JC Penney. First album: The Go-Go's.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I guess the first album I bought was Duran Duran, "Seven and the Ragged Tiger." No idea what the first 45 was, but I loved the blue "True Blue" (Madonna) record.

The first 45 I bought was “Mockingbird” by James Taylor and Carly Simon. My first “album” was the Doors on 8-track. I was reading the Morrison biography at the time.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
We never had an 8-track player so they always held that fascination with the unknown for me.

First cassette I bought was a single. Some sort of dance/trance music I cannot remember the name of the group, and yet I remember the spoken line (in the background): Qu'est ce que tu cherche? La vertu par la vie? (spelling possibly at issue.)
eta: just got my google-fu right: Enigma, Sadness Part I. And my spelling in french has deteriorated.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
K-Bug and a friend were at an estate sale and her friend bought a record of Peter and the Wolf. K-Bug hadn't heard it before. I feel like I failed a bit as a mom.
