Time Tells a Story

My life through time

Katie’s 50th Birthday is tonight!

Teenage Mischief and Radio Requests

I’m so excited, and it even brought up some memories! We were teenagers, spending the night together. I don’t remember exactly what we were doing, but we called the popular radio station to request a song. Why did we do that? What were we doing? Were we just bored?

The Call That Changed Everything

So, I got through and requested “Beth” by Kiss. The guy from the radio station wanted to keep the conversation going — he kept us on the phone. Was he bored too?

Fast forward, we agreed to meet him at the end of our neighborhood.

What the fuck? I’m 51 now, and as I write this, I think, I was so freaking stupid.

Somehow, as Katie and I were driving around with him, we kept giving each other eye twitches or gestures that it was time to go! We told him to drop us off at the pond… which pond? We had three!

Thinking about it now, I’m sure he saw us run all the way around the pond and actually go to the right house. So funny now!
