Confession # 102
I have been carried back to my high school days with one song.
Vienna by Ultravox!
Please tell me I am not the only one who remembers Ultravox.
God! I loved this song…
(It is playing in the background right now)
Whatever happened to them? What happened to Echo and the Bunnymen, Yaz/Eurasure, The Smiths, The Plimsouls, Siouxsie and the Banshees (okay that was college)? But seriously, what happened to them.
Tomorrow night I am going on a date with a man 10 years my junior. TEN YEARS! He will not even know who these bands are?
I am pretty nervous about this date for so many reasons, the 'ten years' is just the latest thing to pop up but it is a big thing!
What could we possibly have in common? How could we possibly relate to each other?
If it wasn’t for the fact that I have had a crush on this man for sometime, and if it did not turn out that he has had a crush on me as well, this whole deal would be best left in the land of fantasy. But what if there is something there?
I did have a thing with a younger man last year, but he was here on business for just a couple of days. He did not live here. I did not see him every single day. And he was only 9 years my junior!
(Another song from high school is playing in the background—ironically it is “Love My Way” by the Psychedelic Furs)
When I did my survey it came out pretty much as I expected down gender lines:
Women: 100% said Go For It!
Men: 100% said Don’t!
I was amused at the results, but not really surprised.
Where could this possibly go? I don’t see myself having another child and a younger man would want one. I am in command of my life and a younger man, well this younger man, is still finding himself.
(David Bowie & Queen “Under Pressure”)
I guess if I look at this in the positive. I could train him. I could have non-Viagra sex. I could just have a summer fling. I could… BUT I DON’T KNOW IF I CAN!
(The Tubes “What Do You Want From Life” my iPod must be hooked into my psyche)
(Talk Talk “Life’s What You Make It” I am proofing)
Damn it! Why am I being such prude? I will let the next song decide!
(The Clash “I fought the Law”—Is that an answer or a warning)
HELP!
(Blind Faith “Can’t Find My Way Home”—proofing again. Not an 80’s song but the perfect one for how I am feeling right now. This song is a whole blog entry in itself. Someday I will write about it, and you will all understand why I am going to do what I am going to do.)
