Cool

Watched a movie tonight set in the 80's. All I can say is "WOW"! I'm speechless! I was cool in the 80's, but the 80's weren't cool. I'm happy I lived through them. It's kind of nice having the memories and the fact that I was there, I can give a firsthand account to my children. I think it's rather humorous to see some of the styles making their way back into department stores. There are things that my children want to buy and when I tell them I had one or wore one, they look at me as if I would be an absolute embarrassment to myself and them if I were dressed in such a thing now. For instance, Members Only jackets. The company has made a comeback and the jackets are as popular now as they were then. The only reason I wouldn't wear one now is that they cost $50 more than they did then:) Same story with Vans. You can actually go to their website and build your own. Expensive! It would still be fun to resurrect the old look. Hawaiian shirt, 501 jeans, Members Only jacket, Vans (no socks), eating pop rocks while playing space invaders, and getting my groove on to some Cheap Trick! What am thinking! Better get me something to drink to bring me back to reality. Does anybody have a Bartles & Jaymes or mix me a fuzzy navel?
