ERMAGERD… this news cheered me up immensely!

i feel like maybe some people wouldn’t pin me for a fan of this song, but it’s one of my faves.  in fact, i’ve been building a list of my top 100 faves throughout my entire life since last year, and this will definitely be on it.  it’s a sentimental one for me.  when TRL first came about, i used to go over to my twin friends’ house and we would watch the whole countdown, and it was about the same time when this came out.  this was on there for what seems like forever.  just brings me right back to my senior year.

it was a bittersweet lil era…  a tough time.  i had just broken up with randolph, i was spending more time with new/old friends because i was kind of fighting with sophie, my friends just started going to raves which was changing our dynamic (before i started going), so it was kind of synced up to a transitional time, i suppose.  it’s also just a good fuckin 90s pop song.

i mean, if this year fucking deserves to come in with a biden bang, this is def a way to do it.  i’m glad gregg and co. aggreed to it…  this makes my 2021 hear very happy already, just with them playing the inauguration.

time warner (i refuse to acknowledge that dumb new company name) decided to start advertising that they’ll soon be streaming “mad about you”.  if you don’t know what it is, it’s a 90s comedy sitcom about a married couple living in NYC, dealing with day to day life situations.  i loved the show when it was on back in the day, but whenever i hear the damn theme song now, i get all PTSD about it.

WHY YOU ASK?

tl;dr: my first boyfriend in high school (who i lost my v-card to) – i used to sleep over his house.  i prob said i was sleeping somewhere else, but his parents were usually asleep early, so we’d hang out and fool around at night.  that show would always be on for some reason, and we’d fall asleep together with it on in the background.  apparently i wasn’t sexually adventurous or consistent enough, and he eventually left me for my “best friend” at the time.  i have always associated that theme song with him and that small, horrible window of my life.
