Thinking about my high school playlist brought back memories of my friends as I was thinking of what I was up to each year of Highschool. I‘m pretty sure my friend Lori (on the left) and I might be screaming to Walk Like an Egyptian by the Bangles here. I love that this read along always leads me to deep dives in the photo archives 🤣 I loved this sweater. #galentine #bestbuddyread

I went to go see Air Supply in concert tonight, and they were so good! It was so fun to be able to sing along with all of the songs and have a great time. I know all of my fellow Littens will appreciate that during the break the guitarist, Graham Russell, recited poetry to the audience. He said that some words are so beautifully put together that they create their own music. He might secretly be a member of our tribe 😊

Texreader I had no idea they were still singing 6y
Melkyl @Texreader I was surprised about it too when they came to our area. They really sounded great and put on an enjoyable show. 6y
