While driving home from work tonight, I was listening to the radio having a battle, like the basketball finals only with songs from the 80’s. This made me feel very strange mainly because the 80’s don’t feel all that long ago. I was also thinking how clever this bit is to gain more listeners and potentially keep them. I don’t care a bit about basketball, but put some 80’s music on and all of a sudden I have an opinion. At the end of the second song (Asia’s “Africa”, the clear winner,) the radio station gave a weather report. The Dj said, “Sunshine, sunshine and more sunshine is what is in store for southern California for the next few days, enjoy everyone.” As I found myself driving along with a big smile on my face, I could’t help it, I immediately started conjuring up a list in my head of all the things I want to accomplish this weekend. I will not waste this beautiful gift, not this one. I am going to avoid the television like its got herpes and all the other electronic things that keep me from enjoying my world. There is a lot to do and a short amount of time to do them but I am up for the challenge. So excited! @aloha #alohafriday
